Sal Maiorana, Rochester Democrat and Chronicle
 
Here’s my preview of the game:
 
Three ...
 
1. Can Tre’Davious White handle Texans WR DeAndre Hopkins?
2. How will the offensive line cope with the dynamic Texans front seven?
3. Will the offensive game plan feature more passing?
 
MY PICK: Texans 24, Bills 10.

Buffalo Bills vs. Houston Texans: Preview, odds, predictions for Week 6

By Matt Parrino | mparrino@nyup.com
 
HOUSTON -- The Buffalo Bills (2-3) recorded their second win of the season last week against the Tennessee Titans in a defensive struggle that came down to the final possession.
 
Bills rookie quarterback Josh Allen has struggled the last two weeks after a breakout game on the road in Week 3 against the Minnesota Vikings. Allen threw for 200 yards and a touchdown and added two more rushing touchdowns to lead the Bills to the 27-6 upset win.
 
Allen was helped last week by Buffalo's running game that got going behind LeSean McCoy, who totaled 100-plus yards in total offense for the first time all season. He ran for 85 yards and made a key play on the final drive to help set up the game-winning field goal.
 
With a win Sunday against the Houston Texans (2-3) the Bills would improve to .500 and firmly place themselves in the thick of the playoff race. If they lose Sunday the hole may be too deep to climb out of for a team led by a rookie quarterback still in the beginning stages of the development process.

The Buffalo Bills will look for back-to-back wins as they’ll head to Houston to face the Texans on Sunday during Week 6.

 

The Texans are also 2-3 overall and an AFC foe, so the game could be a big win come playoff time.

 

But before all that here’s step one. All the info you need to keep up with the action:

The Buffalo Bills travel to Houston, Texas to take on the Texans at NRG Stadium this Sunday. It’s the second straight week the Bills take on an AFC South opponent, and the away team is looking for the same result this week. Both teams sit at 2-3, but the Bill O’Brien-led Texans have been in every game. Each game of theirs has been decided by seven points or fewer.
 
As always, the Bills are underdogs on the road, and rightfully so. The Texans boast a wealth of talent. In order for the Bills to pull off another upset, they will need to execute the following:

Stop if you’ve heard this one before about the Buffalo Bills: they are squaring off against a team that has more perceived talent than themselves. It’s no different this Sunday, as the Bills take on a Houston Texans team will playmakers all over the field.
 
While Buffalo has gutted out two victories this season, it’s going to take something special to compete against this fellow AFC foe. Here are four reasons for the Bills to be concerned entering this weekend’s game.

Bills only team listed as completely healthy and they also have no players on seasoning ending IR like some teams.

Bills at Texans (-10)

  • Bills: None
  • Texans: ILB Brian Peters (ankle), CB Aaron Colvin (ankle) OUT; QB Deshaun Watson (chest) QUESTIONABLE

The Bills roll into Week 6 healthy after all four players dealing with injury practiced in full on Friday, including corner Tre'Davious White (ankle) and safety Micah Hyde (groin). The Texans have a potentially major injury to deal with as Watson has been limited all week before being listed as questionable on Friday. He said earlier in the week he'd definitely play in this game, but the team has given Brandon Weeden extra time in practice with their starter limited, and he'd be the replacement if Watson can't go. Eleven players on the team's injury report didn't get final injury designations, including running back Lamar Miller (chest) and receivers DeAndre Hopkins (foot) and Will Fuller (hamstring).
