Week 4: vs Tennessee Titans

All QB vs TEN

Mark and Joe say: Tough matchup. Brock Osweiler had a rough game in New England last Thursday night, slinging 24/41 for 196 yards passing, zero TDs and one interception thrown, with two sacks taken for -21 yards on the way to a 0-27 loss in Gillette Stadium. As usual, DeAndre Hopkins led the team in receiving with eight targets for 4/56/0 receiving, followed by Ryan Griffin (10 for 8/52/0) and Will Fuller (seven for 3/31/0). Nobody else on the squad got above 30 yards receiving. We'll see if Houston can bounce back at home on Sunday. The Titans' pass defense averages 239.7 net passing yards allowed per game (12th in the NFL), with two scores given out balanced by two interceptions and five sacks generated to date. Derek Carr was held to 21/35 for 245 net yards passing, one TD and one interception thrown last weekend, almost exactly on the season pace for Tennessee. Over the first three weeks of the season, Tennessee has averaged 15.7 fantasy points allowed per game to opposing quarterbacks (sixth-least in the NFL); and 22.5 fantasy points per game allowed to wide receivers (14th-least); with 5 fantasy points given up per game to tight ends (12th-least). This is a tough divisional matchup for Osweiler and company.

Texans | Week 3 Texans inactives (Thu Sep 22, 07:47 PM) - The Houston Texans have declared QB Brandon Weeden, WR Braxton Miller, LB Brian Cushing, DL Devon Still, OT Duane Brown, SS Eddie Pleasant, OT Oday Aboushi inactive for Week 3.

Texans | Week 2 inactives for Houston (Sun Sep 18, 11:30 AM) - The Houston Texans have declared OG Oday Aboushi, OT Duane Brown, LB Brian Cushing, DE Joel Heath, WR Keith Mumphery, SS Eddie Pleasant, QB Brandon Weeden inactive for Week 2.

Our View: The Texans top notch left tackle is out for at least another week, and he is highly unlikely to play Thursday against the Patriots. Hopefully he can return in Week 4, but the Texans offense didn't seem too hampered by his absence in Week 1. Chris Clark is one of the better swing tackles in the NFL.
