Matchup Breakdown
How the model sees it unfold — the matchups that decide the game, from 50 simulationsKeys to the Game
- DeVonta Smith (Eagles) vs Tremon Smith (Texans) - winner: DeVonta Smith, open on 63% of routes for 6.2/7.9, 55 yds a game - money in this spot.
In the Trenches
- The Texans' line should hold up: the Eagles win just 52% of their reps, mustering 5.8 sacks and 29.1 pressures a game — Jonathan Greenard (2.3 sacks, 9.2 pressures a game) out front.
- Don't expect much heat from the Texans — a 50% win rate yields only 7.2 sacks and 29.2 pressures a game, Will Anderson Jr. (3.7 sacks, 9.6 pressures a game) leading the way.
Through the Air
- Look for DeVonta Smith to eat: 6.2 catches and 55 yds a game for the Eagles.
- The Texans' aerial attack runs through Nico Collins (51 yds a game, open on 47% of routes).
- On the back end, Jalen Pitre (Texans) blankets his man, surrendering separation on just 35% of routes — and 0.1 picks a game.
On the Ground
- Saquon Barkley sets the tempo for the Eagles — 55 yds a game on the ground at 4.2 a carry, doing his damage to the right side.
- David Montgomery carries the load for the Texans, 14 carries for 60 yds a game at 4.3 a carry, with the holes opening to the right side.
