Cons
This game will be played in a dome—meaning no wind, increased pass volume, increased touchdown potential, and increased passing efficiency.
When talking about blocking for ball-carriers (and the importance it has on all run game statistics), the offensive line of the Houston Texans profiles as the worst in football last year.
The Titans defense owns the 7th-best efficiency against opposing run games this year, allowing just 3.99 adjusted yards-per-carry (YPC).
