Deshaun Watson Faces Intriguing Matchup In Week 2
5 years agoHouston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson faces the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2, a matchup that's tough to draw conclusions from early in this NFL season. Jacksonville has been one of the NFL's best defenses for the past two years, a fact that would ordinarily limit Watson's upside and make him a low-end QB1. But the Jaguars were just torched in Week 1 by Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, which could mean that 2019 will be a year of drop-off for this defensive unit. It could also just mean that Mahomes in the best quarterback in the NFL and have no effect on the Jaguars moving forward. You're starting Watson this week no matter what, so existential questions about the Jaguars Defense don't need to concern you too much.
