3. Can they create chunk plays?

As mentioned, this Colts offense isn’t about chunk plays left and right. It is very much a grind-it-out offense that doesn’t take many shots downfield. Could that change Thursday night? We will see.

Both teams are coming in on short rest so the gameplan for both teams should be relatively vanilla—could the Colts take advantage of that?

Good news for Indianapolis as they could get their explosive playmaker back in wide receiver T.Y. Hilton, who has a long history of success in Houston.

The Texans will be coming in short-handed with a few of their secondary guys on the injury report entering the midweek game.

Could the Colts take advantage of the lack of depth in the Texans’ secondary and creat some chunk plays on Thursday night? They will need to in order to ensure a victory.
