In no scenario is Blaine Gabbert worth playing unless the starting QB is not ready to go. It honestly sounds like vrabel is just trying to throw off the Texans gameplan. Gabbert will get the majority if not all of the snaps on Sunday.
FYI Titans starting RT, LT both out versus Texans Titans RT Jack Conklin (ACL) is out for Week 2 against the Texans. LT Taylor Lewan (concussion) is also out. And if that weren't enough, Titans coach Mike Vrabel said both Marcus Mariota and Blaine Gabbert will play in Week 2. Yes, both. Vrabel and OC Matt LaFleur come from highly-respected coaching trees, but Tennessee's offense through four quarters has been all but. WR Corey Davis is downgraded but remains a low-end WR2 due to sheer volume.

ESPN sent a message saying Fuller will indeed play. Sidenote: LOL at Houston-born ex-Oiler fans who cheer for Titans.
I disagree, any game that comes down to coaching is a game the Texans lose. Doesn't matter who they go against.
Not a Titan fan. I picked the Texans to go 7-9 and have them splitting the two games with the Titans. I don't trust the offensive line and any of the receivers outside of Hopkins. Then you see pretty much all of the receivers on the injury list.... what should be an easy win for the Texans is going to be a battle.
