Obviously a huge game for both teams because both are 0-1. Undoubtedly, both want to come out and avenge their week one performances. I give the advantage to Tennessee bc 1) they are at home 2) they competed very well and gave themselves a chance to win last week against the superbowl champs 3) Houston having to travel. For me, the only issue I ever have with Tennessee is the offense.  But their receivers are improved from last year and Collins is a proven vet who consistently makes plays when his team needs him. He's not flashy but he makes nice decisions and gets rid of the ball quick. They have a dynamic backfield and a great offensive line. Tennessee will have their hands full with Slaton, but after giving up 100 yards to him two times last year the coaching staff will be focused on limiting his production. Tennessee's defense is predicated on stopping the run and forcing teams to make plays in the passing game. The Texan's have some nice talent at receivers, I just don't think Schaub will have the type of game he needs to have, on the road, to put his team in a situation to keep the game close. Houston-17 Tennessee-34
