The full read
Tank Dell led Houston in targets against the Chargers in his second game of the season: 9 targets, 4 catches, 105 yards, a touchdown and +3.8 expected points added (EPA), what a play was worth given down, distance and field position. Five of the targets fell incomplete, three of them deep.
The big one came up 10-9 with 4:37 left in the first half, on the second play after a Chargers field goal had cut the lead to one. Second and 5 at the Houston 37, C.J. Stroud threw deep right and Dell took it 63 yards for the touchdown: +5.5 EPA and 18.4 points of win probability, the estimate of each side's chance to win, the largest swing of the game. Up 38-15 early in the fourth he added a 32-yard catch to the Chargers' 40 on second and 7, +2.5 EPA, and the drive ended in a field goal.
With 1:17 left in the half he bobbled a punt and recovered it himself at the Houston 24; Stroud drove from there for a 24-9 halftime lead.
Before the bye he had played once, in Week 7, with 1 catch for 43 yards against the Giants. Here it was +0.43 EPA a target, on a 24.3% target share.
