Find No. 10 – Deshaun Watson
What’s the key to beating a good team? Using your best player. Who would have thought?
DeAndre Hopkins, Houston’s all-world wide-out, is a primary focus for the Texans’ offense. Watson will find him to move the chains, get him out of tight spots and, in the best-case scenario, score in the red zone. As Watson alludes to, finding him is better in the clutch moments.
“He likes that pressure situation where… the drive is on the line so we’ve got to keep the chains moving and keep the possession of the ball,” said Watson on Tuesday. “So, he’s definitely a guy that understands what we need and what we want to do on that possession.”
In Hopkins’ last matchup with the Colts, he hauled in nine receptions (on 12 targets) for 106 yards and a touchdown. He did so against his mortal, cornerbacking, enemy Pierre Desir, who is questionable to play.
