I can guarantee that whomever the Browns draft as their new rookie QB in 2017 is going to have a disastrous career despite predictions from many that he will finally be the guy who leads the Brownies to the promised land.

So, there's that.

And, FWIW, I never bought into the breathless hype this summer about the Jags. Hey I *still* don't believe a team like the Vikings can lose Teddy Bridgewater and Adrian Peterson then suddenly start playing like NFC Champions.

This Detroit game is a perfect example of a game that can either put the team total wins over for the year or under for the year. A few months ago, this game looked like a W. Not such a sure thing anymore. Detroit is "hot". Houston is not. Many are picking the Lions to win straight up. Will the Texans have the chutzpah to break out of their funk and get the W?

A win would put the Texans at 5-3 going into the bye with Jacksonville lurking as next in line, so a forecast of 6-3 is a possibility. A loss (4-4) and ewww, they'll have to put together a very good 2nd half of the season. OB's teams have been better in the 2nd half his first two years and that will have to happen again....

Stafford has been very good with his passes travelling less distance downfield than anyone in the NFL. If we give cushion he picks us a part with quick throws and YAC from Golden Tate. If we dare him to beat us deep we win the game.
