It might be prudent to rest some folks during the game but I'd still like to see them go for the W...

Interesting that a line is already out since we don't know who's starting @ QB for the Texans yet ? Apparently Vegas already says Weeden = Hoyer ?

Yep, looks that way. Who's to argue?

It's possible they may consider Hoyer the better of the two but it may be close enough they are not sweating the difference... Just a guess..

Meanwhile, In Colts land....
Ian Rapoport ‏@RapSheet 12m12 minutes ago
Playoff hopes hanging by a thread, #Colts QB situation is dire if Luck is out: Hasselbeck has a sprained AC joint, Whitehurst pulled a hammy

All of this needs to happen in order for the Colts to jump the Texans for the division crown:

Broncos beat the Bengals tonight,

and then next week...

The Colts beat the Titans
The Jaguars beat the Texans
The Falcons beat the Saints
The Dolphins beat the Patriots
The Broncos beat the Chargers
The Ravens beat the Bengals
The Bills beat the Jets
The Raiders beat the Chiefs
The Steelers beat the Browns

If the Bengals win tonight, it's over and we can rest some players. Stranger things have happened, but I just don't see MIA beating NE at this point, and I don't see BUF beating the NYJ. The others are a little more likely to happen, I suppose.

Not 100%, but Sounds like Texans should win the division then from Popanots list.

And for me , like Weeden better than Hoyer . Jags have been playing better so not a gimme game.

Here's a take (video) on all that. The video was posted yesterday so some of the numbers were still up in the air at the time...

Teddy Covers is always interesting to listen to.... don't agree with everything he says in the video but do agree that, assuming the Texans win, it won't be by much and that both teams will probably exceed the 46 pt total.

Hoyer to start Sunday. Clowney to sit with bad foot. Texans promote Corey Moore from the practice squad.
