Read MoreCook Index Rankings (Texans #16 in Week 1)
 |
Edit: title should read “Texans #10 in Week 1”. Apparently I can’t read my own graphic. Read an interesting article on the Cook Index, a metric that the folks over at The Athletic use to measure how much teams are embracing the shift toward the passing game. It is calculated by measuring the % of plays where teams pass the ball on 1st and 2nd down in the first 28 minutes of the game (first half outside of the 2 minute drill)–when play calls are not going to be as heavily influenced by score differential and time remaining. The expectation is that teams with talented QBs should have a higher % of throws on early downs in the first half to take advantage of their passing talent. Before diving into the metrics for Week 1, we should expect for the Texans to have a high rank in this metric as the season progresses. We’re built to succeed around Watson, and need to be putting the ball in his hands to win. IMO, if we’re not a top-10 team in this category, then our HC/OC aren’t running the right plays and scheme on offense. With that, see below for the Week 1 rankings: As we can see, the Texans were tied with KC for #10 on the week, throwing on 52% of 1st/2nd down snaps in the 28 minutes of the game, indicating a very balanced game plan. I’d like to see that number get higher as the season progresses, especially in Week 2 vs. Baltimore. We need to go for the jugular, put up points early, and force Lamar Jackson to pass the ball from the pocket. submitted by /u/dctexan202 |
