3 key matchups to watch for Titans’ Week 16 game vs. Texans

Titans RB Derrick Henry is looking to extend his 200-yard, two-touchdown streak against the Texans to five in Week 16.

The Tennessee Titans (7-7) are set to host the Houston Texans (1-12-1) in what is a crucial game for head coach Mike Vrabel’s team.

Tennessee is looking to avoid a fifth-straight loss at all costs as they continue to inch toward possibly one of the most embarrassing and disappointing collapses in franchise history.

This week they face a Texans team that has been playing some of its best football as of late. In fact, to be perfectly honest, you could make a very strong argument that the Texans have looked like a better football team recently.

In its last two outings, Houston may not have walked away with a victory in either game, but the Texans very much had Dallas and Kansas City both on the ropes for the majority of those contests.

This game won’t be a walk in the park by any means, so let’s take a closer look at three matchups that will likely play a large role in determining Saturday’s outcome.
