The Houston Texans take on the Buffalo Bills for a Week 4 showdown at Highmark Stadium.
The Bills are looking to go 3-1 as they are in a highly competitive AFC East with the New England Patriots trying to find their way at 1-2 and the Miami Dolphins also working through some challenges at 1-2.
Curiously, the Texans aren’t exactly out of it in the AFC South as their 1-2 record renders them second place behind the 2-1 Tennessee Titans, with whom they have yet to commence the regular season series.
The Texans are working with a rookie quarterback in Davis Mills, who will be making his first ever road start. To make it even more challenging, rain is expected in the forecast. As much as the Texans would like to open up the offense, they may need to stay conservative due to the weather.
Coach David Culley knows it will be a struggle to get a win in Buffalo because of how good the Bills are thanks to their franchise quarterback, Josh Allen, who is a playoff winner and a Pro Bowler.
“You knew developmentally that he was going to become what he has become right now, just with time,” said Culley. “There were some fundamental things that he needed to correct, and obviously he’s corrected those right now. He’s playing at a very high level right now.”
