THREE KEYS FOR TITANS

1 Getting back a healthy Derrick Henry should be a tremendous boost to the running game. He makes the play-action successful.

2 Ryan Tannehill has to continue his hot streak by reducing sacks, converting in the red zone and avoiding turnovers.

3 The defense has to make sure Deshaun Watson and Kenny Stills don’t connect like they did in the loss at Tennessee.

THREE KEYS FOR TEXANS

1 Quarterback Deshaun Watson and the offense have to get in sync, avoid turnovers and become more consistently productive.

2 The defense has to stop surrendering long runs like in the last two victories. Otherwise, the run defense has been good.

3 Special teams must continue to contribute big plays. Can Angelo Blackson block a field goal for the third game in a row?
