The Colts are a 4-point favorite in this game, which points towards a rushing game script.THE BLITZ projects the Indianapolis Colts to be the 10th-most run-oriented offense on the slate this week with a 44.0% run rate, given their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.The weatherman calls for 13-mph wind in this game. High wind generally means reduced pass volume (and higher run volume) and decreased passing effectiveness.The Indianapolis Colts O-line ranks as the 9th-best in the NFL since the start of last season at opening holes for runners.The Tennessee Titans have stacked the box versus opponents on just 10.1% of their plays since the start of last season, 4th-least in football.
