4. Deshaun Watson

There is certainly plenty of questions surrounding Deshaun Watson from whether or not he will be traded by the Texans and if he isn’t traded, will he face any discipline from the NFL due to offseason allegations.  If Watson isn’t suspended, and if Watson is on the Texans, then he would be the fourth-best quarterback the Bills will face this season.

The Houston Texans are another team, similar to the Falcons, in that they likely won’t have many wins this season but that won’t be due to the quarterback position. Watson has been the starting quarterback for the past three seasons and during that stretch has averaged 4,280 passing yards with 28 passing touchdowns. He has made the Pro Bowl each of those seasons as well.

While this is a game that the Buffalo Bills should win, they certainly can’t take this team lightly if Deshaun Watson is under center for the Texans.
