    The opportunities will be there, but it's up to Fitzpatrick to recognize the mismatches and execute the throw.

    Yep, he needs to make the read and get rid of the ball quickly.

    No more holding onto the ball too long.

    Yeah, too long, he's gotta have the ball out within 2 seconds given the awful O line he has to deal with.

    Especially when he has the excellent Andre to deal with or if Nuke has a mismatch.

    I feel good about this one. But I've been wrong the last 3 so that may not bode well for the Texans.
    Texans win by 3.

    Would be worse news of they were relying on a hobbled Cushing. Dent and Mo engulfed the Titan check downs and screens last week.

    I really been impressed with Hopkins getting separation. He's always ran good routes but he's fine tuning and it's showing

    And who is it they engulfed against the Titans Nick...??? We're talking about Sproles here...

    This is going to be a game were the offense will have to step up and carry their weight... And going against that Philly defense _ there's no excuses on why they shouldn't.

    Agreed. We've already lost a couple we should've won. The remedy... win some games you should've loss. This game would offset the Cowboy loss, standings-wise.

    Change your signature to "wish he grew up in Philly".

    Hopkins would be AJ Green good if he didn't have such tight hips.

    That dude can't move for crap with the ball in his hands.

    He reminds me of Anquan Boldin with a little more speed. He just needs to fill out more. I am getting tired of the drops once he is hit right after the catch.

    This is a big swing game for the season. If we head into the bye week 5-4, 3 games still left with the Titans/Jags, 10-6 seems like a realistic possibility.

    I got the Eagles, but this is a game the Texans can win, I don't think the Eagles are as good as their record suggests. We're due to win one of these.

    As an aside, I find it funny how many people always call for a blowout every time we face a decent team.

    For some weird reason, I have good feeling about this one. Sort of a season turning point, going north or going south. I am predicting the upset.

    For those curious about Nick Foles this year.

    He hasn't been that good.

    His QB rating is on par with EJ Manuel, and its been even worse against teams that can rush the passer.

    Keep the RB's in check.
