Behind Enemy Lines: Previewing Week 17 against the 49ers with Niners Wire

The Houston Texans take on the San Francisco 49ers. Niners Wire provided a preview of what to expect in Week 17.

The Houston Texans take on the San Francisco 49ers in Week 17 at Levi’s Stadium.

The Texans are 4-11 and riding a two-game winning streak with rookie quarterback Davis Mills. However, the 49ers are a desperate team in possession of the No. 6 seed in the NFC playoffs. Unlike the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 16, the 49ers can’t afford to play with their food; they need to dispatch Houston and clinch a playoff berth.

Kyle Madson from the Niners Wire drops by to give a preview of the tilt with San Francisco.

Here is what to expect as the two sides meet for a 3:05 p.m. Central Time kickoff on Sunday.
