Houston Texans Prediction for This Season

Deshaun Watson League MVP?

"I think he has a chance to be MVP of the league this year," former quarterback Joe Theismann said in a telephone interview. "I thought he was off to a terrific start last year. He has a rare combination of athleticism and ability to work from the pocket.

Deshaun Watson is listed with 14/1 odds of being named League MVP

"He's more accurate than Cam Newton, faster than Cam Newton, more elusive than Cam Newton.”

"You look at Deshaun's body of work and I think he'll be more judicious with the football in terms of cutting down interception and he'll still throw touchdowns. This is a darn good defensive football team. A couple of years ago, they would have beat the Patriots if they had a quarterback.

"Houston has become one of three or four teams in the AFC that have a chance to go all the way along with New England and the Jags. They all have a chance to go to the game game. Deshaun and the defense makes the Texans a real contender."
