The 1-2 Tennessee Titans pay a visit to NRG stadium to face the Texans in an early game Sunday. The Titans are coming off a 17-10 home loss to the Oakland Raiders last Sunday. QB Marcus Mariota is 67/107 averaging 229.3 yds/gm and has a rating of 79.3 while throwing for 4 TD's and 4 INT's. Look for him to hand the ball off to Demarco Murray (6.0 yds/carry) and pass to Tajae Sharpe (11.2 avg.), Delanie Walker (13.9 avg.) and Murray (7.8 avg.).
The 2-1 Texans are coming off a 27-0 loss to New England on Thursday Night Football. The Texans should be in rebound mode though the Titans always put up a good fight....
