Drive Starters – The 1st play of each drive can
often reveal the intent of a coach to establish his game plan. How committed is
he to the run or pass when the team comes off the sideline? We track it each
week here –

_3_ Run/_8_ Pass

* This statistic doesn’t count any 1-play kneel down drives.
Play Action Snaps – 6
Play-action had been the Texan’s calling card under Gary
Kubiak and Matt Schaub, both of whom are now gone. But the fact remains that this offense goes
as far as their running game takes them, they have not been good enough to beat
teams solely through the air. Here we
will track those snaps.
Wk _7_ - _Pittsburgh _ : _6/43 yards_ _7.2 avg yards/play action
pass
Wk _6_ - _Indianapolis _ : _4/72 yards_ _18.0 avg yards/play action
pass
Wk _5_ - _Dallas Cowboys_ : _3/29 yards_ _9.7 avg yards/play action

Wk _4_ - _Buffalo Bills___ : 15/113 yards_ _7.5 avg

Wk _3_ - _NY Giants___ : _5/38 yards_ _7.6 avg yards/play action

Wk _2_ - _Oakland___ : _3/18 yards_ _6.0 avg yards/play action pass
Wk _1_ - _Washington___ : _6/119 yards_ _19.8
avg yards/play action pass
2014 Season Total: _42/432 yards_ _10.3 avg
yards/play action pass
Shotgun Snaps – 30
Shotgun snaps are fine on 3rd down and in the 2
minute drill. But, we track this stat from week to week to make sure the Texans
aren’t getting too lazy in using it. The NFL run/pass split across the league
is 15%/85% and most teams rarely run out of the shotgun with any time of
consistent success. Bill O’Brien is showing a tendency to be in shotgun a lot
and run the ball out of it, a lot. The
Texans consistently split the running back out wide when in shotgun I assume
wanting to exploit a matchup on the perimeter. They had not thrown to the back
once through the first 3 games and it leaves Fitzpatrick vulnerable to pressure.
The Giants rarely blitzed nor did they have to playing with a lead but it is
something to keep an eye on going forward.
Wk _7_ - _Pittsburgh : _30/62 _48.4_%
Wk _6_ - _Indianapolis : _24/51

Wk _5_ - _Dallas Cowboys_ : _31/55_ _56.4_%

Splash Plays
Let’s take a look at the “Splash Plays” from Week _7_
at the _Pittsburgh Steelers_:
Splash Plays are key impact plays from the defense. Usually,
they are obvious, but there are some that blur the line. I have listed time and
play of each one for those who want to double check my work.
For more, read a detailed explanation of this study here: What
is a splash play?

Blitzing Report
Romeo Crennel has been around the NFL for over 30 years with
the past 12 spent as either a head coach or a defensive coordinator. He is known for being an aggressive
coordinator who isn’t afraid to blitz and blitz often. He is not going to stand back and play
coverage on most 3rd downs, he will bring the heat and force the
issue on the QB.
