Like many of the other games on this list, this matchup has two top quarterbacks, household names, and playoff implications pushing it forward.

You’ll have two MVP candidates in quarterbacks Jackson and Deshaun Watson being pitted against one another. There are top wide receivers in Brown and Brandin Cooks. You’ve got household names on defense in J.J. Watt and Earl Thomas.

Though the Ravens trounced the Texans last year, this could be an early preview of a playoff matchup as well. If scheduled towards the end of the season, this is a game that will absolutely send shockwaves through the AFC playoff seeding regardless of who wins and by how much. The effect it will have on the rest of the conference will be massive, making it another great reason to be in a primetime slot.
