At the present time, the 4th-most pass-oriented team in football near the goal line (60.5% in a neutral context) according to the projection model is the Houston Texans.Given the game dynamics and the underlying approaches of each team, this game is anticipated by the model to have 132.7 total plays called: the 4th-highest number out of all the games this week.This game will be played in a dome—meaning no wind, increased pass volume, increased TD potential, and increased passing effectiveness.This year, the deficient San Francisco 49ers defense has yielded a massive 0.43 touchdowns through the air per game to opposing running backs: the 3rd-highest rate in football.Opposing offenses have rushed for the 7th-fewest TDs in football (0.57 per game) against the 49ers defense this year.
