What It Means:

This is confirmation of what we already know, but it's worth reminding you that all Indianapolis pass-catchers will be diminished as a result of this. Running back Frank Gore will likely see the offense go through him, as relying on Hasselbeck to move this team down the field is a laughable idea.

We project Gore as the 12th-best running back option in Week 4. Our algorithm projects him for 15 carries for 61 yards and a good chance to score, as well as two catches for 13 yards through the air.
