Houston Texans Easiest Games In 2019<\/strong><\/h2>\n

9. Week 7 at Indianapolis Colts<\/h3>\n

Houston travels to Indianapolis to take on the Colts. This divisional game will be a battle of the quarterbacks. Deshaun Watson<\/a><\/strong> vs Andrew Luck<\/a><\/strong>. The quarterback that manages their offense better will come out victorious. These two teams will be fighting for bragging rights in the division.<\/p>\n

10. Week 16 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/h3>\n

The second to last week of the season, Houston travels to Tampa Bay. The Bucs have struggled for the past few seasons, and 2019 might be no different. This game earns the easiest spot because Houston should be able to take advantage of a Bucs team that is rebuilding. The Texans can go into Tampa and get an easy win before hosting division rival Tennessee the next week.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

11. Week 14 vs Denver Broncos<\/h3>\n

The Broncos will go to Houston with a veteran quarterback in Joe Flacco<\/a><\/strong>. After the retirement of Peyton Manning<\/a><\/strong>, Denver has been in the rebuilding session. 2019 could be a rough year for Denver. For the Texans, containing Flacco in the pocket will be the main key. Keeping Phillip Lindsay<\/a><\/strong> from gaining a decent amount of yards will attribute to earning another win.<\/p>\n

12. Week 9 vs Jacksonville Jaguars (in London)\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Both the Texans and Jaguars will travel across the Atlantic Ocean to face each other in London, England. This match-up will have many division and playoff implications. Divisional games are always hard to pick, but the Texans could have the edge in this one. It all depends on their productivity up to this game.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

12. Week 10 at Baltimore Ravens<\/h3>\n

The Texans will travel to Baltimore to take on Lamar Jackson<\/a><\/strong> and the Ravens. Houston\u2019s defense is capable of winning this game. Another AFC showdown that could have post-season implications attached to a win here.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

14. Week 17 vs Tennessee Titans<\/h3>\n

The final game of the regular season could potentially be for the division. Both the Texans and Titans are expected to be sleeper contenders this season. Deshaun Watson and the Houston offense will have to get the passing game clicking early. This game could have a ton of potential to it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

15. Week 15 at Tennessee Titans<\/h3>\n

Three weeks before the end of the regular season, these two divisional rivals meet. This time in Nashville. The Titans and Texans will both come into this match-up hoping to earn a better record. In return, a win would solidify their place in the division. For at least another two weeks, that is. The Texans\u2019 standpoint on this game is that a win will help their divisional chances. And a playoff berth in 2019 could be closer with a victory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

16. Week 8 vs Oakland Raiders<\/h3>\n

The Raiders aren\u2019t expected to make a lot of buzz this season. Houston should have no issue winning this match-up. Especially if Antonio Brown<\/a><\/strong> decides to quit football, the Texans\u2019 defense will have an easier time in pass coverage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
