What I learned from Watching All of Deshaun Watson's Career Red Zone Plays

 

Regression is a harsh mistress. Everyone knew Deshaun Watson’s passing statistics in his six-game sample from 2017 were going to be less impressive this season than 13 red zone touchdowns and two interceptions. The key question is how much will Watson regress.
 
Through five games, it’s hard to call the red zone numbers Houston has put up anything but alarming. The Texans have made 22 trips to the red zone in 2018, the third-most of any NFL team. They’ve scored a touchdown just eight times. That’s second-worst in the league, ahead of only the New York Jets.
 
As far as the pure raw numbers, here’s how the Texans have looked from 2017 to 2018.

Will Deshaun Watson Play Sunday vs. Bills? 'For Sure'

 

Deshaun Watson took a pummeling in Sunday night's victory over the Dallas Cowboys, but the Houston Texans quarterback expects to play this week versus the Buffalo Bills.
 
"For sure," Watson responded when asked if he would be good to go, via Deepi Sidhu of the team's official website.
 
Watson's confidence was more direct than coach Bill O'Brien, who previously wouldn't divulge the QB's status, saying that he would "let the injury report speak for itself." The coach did respond "Oh, yeah," as to whether Watson could play Sunday.
 
The quarterback took some massive hits Sunday night and was treated on the sideline during the game. The Houston Chronicle's Aaron Wilson reported Watson is dealing with a chest injury.
 

Hopkins on OT play, Bills secondary, more. (5:54)

DeAndre Hopkins speaks with the media on Wednesday.

We should dominate if the Texans roll with medicine balls at Center and Guard on the Oline
