If it weren’t for Matt Schaub’s inspired 4th quarter heroics against
Miami last week, this would be a battle of two winless teams. That said, these
teams are much farther apart than their records would indicate. The Texans have
had an extremely tough schedule thus far (opponents records, not including
Miami: 15-6) and have managed to keep games close, while the Lions have been
blown out by everyone from San Fransisco to Atlanta. In addition, they will be
without the services of their #1 wideout Roy Williams, having traded him to
Dallas for multiple draft picks in an effort to reap future rewards from this
tragic “rebuilding” present. It’s tough to envision a team the
Lions could beat, but if I could think of one, it wouldn’t have anyone on it
like Andre Johnson and Steve Slayton.
Pick: Houston
