3. Deshaun Watson Will Have 4 Total Touchdowns

Deshaun Watson is now entering the Russell Wilson level of carrying an offense. If the Texans’ offense is successful this year, it will be because Watson is dominant and he would then enter the MVP conversation. This MVP campaign will start this week against the Ravens. While Baltimore has a very good defense, the Texans’ offense will thrive this week under Watson.

The Texans need a victory this week. They have a very difficult upcoming schedule. The AFC South will be competitive this year. Watson will have to be in control and creative with this offense. They have plenty of solid weapons surrounding Watson and he will have to spread the ball around.

If Watson is not able to put some points on the board himself against a tough Ravens defense, Houston may not have a shot at winning this week. For a quarterback that landed a massive contract extension, these are the moments they must elevate their game.

Watson is known for his creativity and ability to extend plays, then throwing touchdowns. However, he has a nose for the end zone and an understanding of when to take off. It will not be a surprise if Watson rushes for a touchdown this week. If he can throw for three touchdowns and rush for one, the Texans could come away with an upset win this week.
