Can Texans Pull of Upset Against the Colts
Houston’s 2020 campaign has been a train wreck after a lot of bad decisions in the offseason. It got worse last Sunday when they fell 36-7 to the struggling Chicago Bears. RB David Johnson had to miss that game after being placed on the COVID-19 list as a close contact.
They almost pulled the upset two weeks ago. DeShaun Watson passed for 341 yards and rushing for 38 yards and a touchdown. Watson led the Texans to the shadow of the goal posts in the waning moments of Indianapolis’ 26-20 victory.
The Colts sacked Watson five times and recorded the first interception against him since Week 5. They still almost came up short.
Even in the middle of their miserable season, Watson is excelling. He closed Week 14 second in passing yards to Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. He has racked up 3,761 so far and is fourth in passer rating at 109.4. Watson is also tied for ninth with 25 touchdown passes.
The Texans have struggled to protect Watson again this year. He has been sacked 39 times, third-most in the NFL. Their rushing attack is last in the league with 1,121 yards. Yet, despite those obstacles, Watson is a threat every time he takes the field.
