He averaged over 28 yards per catch last season for Ohio State.

In the eyes of many observers, the Texans’ season died on October 8, the day of their 27-20 defeat at the hands of the division-rival Colts. The first quarter of the game was a very slow defensive battle with Houston dominating the time of possession. Even better news is that the Jets don’t possess the same weapons Cincinnati does on offense, although New York’s personnel still has a lot of capability and potential to score points on the ground or through the air. “Whether it’s two hands or one hand, he gets his feet down”. “The second one was an example of the quarterback trusting me, putting the ball there and me making a great play”.
“Yeah, of course. It’s ‘Revis Island, ‘ as y’all say”, Hopkins said while using air quotes to describe Revis Island.
– For the second consecutive week, Todd Bowles made a questionable decision.
DYNAMIC DUO: Jets wide receivers Eric Decker and Brandon Marshall have touchdown catches in the same game five times this season.
However, he didn’t have his best game, throwing for just 216 yards with one touchdown and two picks, both late in the fourth quarter. That’s where the comeback story ends.
With the Texans on the Jets’ 2-yard line, Watt was sent into the game as a tight end and lined up outside.
On paper, this was the worst possible matchup for the Texans’ offense.

The rapport with the receivers wasn’t quite there but it certainly will get better with time.
The defense’s performance against the Jets continued a streak of excellent play on that side of the ball.
Against the Jets, Hopkins became the third youngest player in National Football League history to reach 200 career receptions and 3000 career receiving yards.
“I don’t think a lot of the throws are Ryan’s fault”, Bowles said. But four losses in five games have exposed deficiencies in their roster and their play-calling.
Hopkins’ first scoring grab came against Revis, a 61-yard post pattern aided by a splendid throw from Yates that delivered Houston a 10-3 lead with 3:04 left in the first half. According to ESPN, Hopkins mocked Revis after the game. He wasn’t exactly spectacular in his return, but he made a couple of solid catches and a nice block. Chris Ivory struggled to get going. If he continues to develop Enunwa could earn himself the number three or four spot on the depth chart.
Earlier in the week, we said that the NY Jets would destroy the Houston Texans. The injuries leave the statuses of Revis and Mangold uncertain.

Rather than allow their running backs to timorously sit back before attacking the hole and incessantly get brought down for three yards a carry, the Texans did something entirely different. Could this mean Bowles wants to see if Smith is possibly the answer? “If it’s third-and-three or third-and-two, you don’t have as good of a chance to stop them”. “They get paid like everybody else and they have to start acting like they’re not in college anymore”. A radical change to Smith would prove disastrous. And they did it with Yates, who threw for 229 yards in his first start since January 15, 2012, in the playoffs for Houston as a rookie. The margin for error is significantly smaller now than it was last week. And our guys have to understand that New Orleans is coming in here off a bye week. Their slide began when they lost to the Patriots by a touchdown and has continued throughout the fall.
