The Unexpected Power Shift: How the Ground Game is Quietly Dominating This NFL Playoff Season
Meanwhile, the Denver Broncos, Minnesota Vikings, Los Angeles Chargers and Pittsburgh Steelers all finished well below the league average in both categories – and all lost.
Perhaps the biggest shock of the weekend was the Houston Texans. They finished 32nd in run success rate and 16th in yards before contact during the regular season but cruised to a win over the Chargers. Coincidentally, the Chargers run game also ranked poorly in 2024 (27th and 31st in run success rate and yards before contact, respectively) and Houston’s defense eventually dominated Los Angeles overall in the wild-card game.
