Pros

  • This week’s spread suggests a running game script for the Texans, who are favored by 3 points.

Cons

  • After making up 77.3% of his team’s run game usage last season, Dameon Pierce has played a smaller part in the running game this season, currently accounting for only 55.8%.
  • In regards to run-blocking (and the significance it has on all ground game stats), the O-line of the Texans ranks as the 2nd-worst in football last year.
  • Dameon Pierce’s 43.0 adjusted rushing yards per game this year shows a noteable decline in his running skills over last year’s 71.0 rate.
  • Dameon Pierce’s rushing efficiency has declined this year, accumulating a measly 2.99 adjusted yards-per-carry compared to a 4.22 rate last year.
  • With a lousy rate of 2.30 yards after contact (2nd percentile) this year, Dameon Pierce ranks among the least powerful running backs in the league.
