On Sunday, November 4th at 3:05 pm CST, The Texans will travel to Denver Colorado to take on the Denver Broncos at Broncos Stadium at Mile High. The game will be aired on TV on CBS 11 and on radio on AM SportsTalk 610.
With Will Fuller out for the season with an ACL tear, Deshaun Watson will have to prove his metal and use different targets with someone having to step up and play over the top to help him out. Fuller is a huge loss, but nothing is impossible for Deshaun Watson and his incredible drive to win.

The offenses are very equal in almost every category, however, in the last 2 games, the Texans running game has come alive with great efforts from both Miller and Blue. This will be the key to the game against the Broncos 2nd worse defense against the run. When the Texans running game gets going, it opens up the entire field for Watson and the receivers. Jordan Thomas has been a nice surprise and he will need to step up even more with the loss of Fuller. The others that will need to step up are Keke Coutee if he's available to play, Sammy Coates and Vyncint Smith. Coates has shown an improvement in catching the ball, but he's really going to need to step up and not start dropping passes at critical moments or in 3rd down situations. Smith will have to use his speed to try and be the receiver that can take the top off a defense and open things up for DeAndre. Jordan Akins will also need to step it up along with Tyler Ervin to hit the slot. Who will it be? Who can step up to fill the slot and get open for Watson? Watson will need to spread the ball around to different receivers to keep the Broncos secondary off balance and use the running game to keep their secondary honest.
The Texans defense took a couple of hits with Jonathan Joseph and Zach Cunningham getting banged up. Hopefully, the extra 3 days off can help them to recover. If not, it will be up to rookies and back ups to step up and get things done. The good news is good depth at the linbacker position, the issue is the lack of depth in the secondary. It's going to be up to the front 7 to really step up and harass Case Keenum. Watt, Clowney, Reader and Mercilus will need to get after Keenum and hit him often as well as get sacks. Keenum has some very good weapons in Emmanuel Sanders and Demaryius Thomas. These guys are dangerous and will give the secondary more then they can handle. These guys are the reason the front 7 of the Texans will need to beat up on Keenum and try and prevent him from getting the ball out. Easier said then done.
This game could go either way. The only reason I'm going to give the Texans the edge in this game is because of the resurgence of the running game and Denver's inability to stop it.
The Texans edge out the Broncos in a high flying affair.
