Accounting for their underlying play style and game dynamics, the Texans are forecasted by our trusted projection set to call 65.2 offensive plays in this game: the 5th-highest number among all teams this week.The passing games of both teams (as it relates to both volume and effectiveness) figure to benefit from the still "weather" conditions (i.e. zero wind) inside this dome, while run volume may drop.The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense has been a bit of pass funnel since the start of last season, causing opposing quarterbacks to attempt the most passes in the NFL (38.3 per game) since the start of last season.When talking about air yards, Nick Chubb grades out in the lofty 81st percentile among RBs since the start of last season, accruing a colossal 1.0 per game. (as a result of being targeted behind the line of scrimmage, this is far more remarkable than it appears since most RBs have negative air yards).The Buccaneers defense has surrendered the most adjusted receiving yards per game in football (39.0) vs. running backs since the start of last season.
