Why Houston Texans Will Win

Deshaun Watson has to go off.

The passing game went for close to 400 yards and the team had its shot late before the misfire, and now Watson has to do it all again. The Indianapolis secondary has been solid all year, but but it has allowed over 300 yards in three of the last four games. It has to happen again.
