Matchup Breakdown

How the model sees it unfold — the matchups that decide the game, from 50 simulations
Keys to the Game
  • Jonathan Taylor (Colts) vs Kevin Winston Jr. (Titans) - winner: Jonathan Taylor, 6.1 yds a carry - the back the defense can't corral.
In the Trenches
  • The Colts may have to manufacture pressure, winning 51% up front for 7.4 sacks a game (Laiatu Latu (4.0 sacks, 9.6 pressures a game) the one to watch).
  • The Titans get stonewalled often up front, winning only 50% of reps (3.7 sacks a game), John Franklin-Myers (0.9 sacks, 5.6 pressures a game) leading the way.
Through the Air
  • Alec Pierce is the engine of the Colts' passing game — 61 yds a game on 55% separation.
  • Carnell Tate should find soft spots all day, open 51% of the time for 44 yds a game.
  • Alontae Taylor (Titans) is a problem in coverage, holding his man open on just 42% of routes with 0.2 INT a game.
On the Ground
  • The Colts lean on Jonathan Taylor, 15 carries for 94 yds a game at 6.1 a carry, with his best work to the right side.
  • Tony Pollard is the workhorse for the Titans, churning 36 yds a game at 4.0 a carry, churning to the right side.
