Montgomery benefits from a more efficient and heavy-personnel Texans run game

Matt Harmon highlights that Montgomery's three-touchdown debut was bolstered by a significant shift in the Texans' run game, which utilized heavy personnel (12 personnel) and achieved a 48.3% rushing success rate. While his yards-per-carry was depressed by short-yardage usage, the team's commitment to the run game is a major improvement over their previous 31st-ranked rushing success rate.
