the ESPN story that pointed to the

HOUSTON TEXANS (4-12)
New faces: S Tyrann Mathieu Womens Justin Tucker Jersey , G Senio Kelemete, G Zach Fulton, OT Seantrel Henderson, CB Aaron Colvin, QB Brandon Weeden, TE Jordan Akins.
Key losses: LB Brian Cushing Authentic Ezekiel Elliott Jersey , OT Jeff Allen, OL Xavier Su'a-Filo.
Strengths: QB Deshaun Watson is healthy after season-ending knee surgery last year and should lead potent offense that also features WR DeAndre Hopkins and RB Lamar Miller. Defensive line expected to be another strength with three-time Defensive Player of Year J.J. Watt returning after missing most of last two seasons with injuries. He will team with 2014 top overall draft pick Jadeveon Clowney, who is coming off best season.
Weaknesses: Offensive line that allowed second-most sacks in NFL last season has several new faces but it's unclear if changes will lead to better protection for Watson. Team added Mathieu and Colvin in free agency to upgrade secondary that struggled at times last season, but group will need to be much better to keep pace with outstanding defensive front.
Fantasy Players To Watch: Hopkins. Sixth-year receiver has become one of best players in game despite dealing with ineffective and inconsistent quarterback play for entire career. Hopkins was fourth in NFL with 1,378 yards receiving and caught career-high and NFL-best 13 touchdown passes last season while playing with four quarterbacks. With Watson healthy and on field he could put up even better numbers in 2018.
Vegas Says: Super Bowl 22-1. Over/under wins 8 1/2.
Expectations: If Watson is healthy and can build on limited work as rookie, Houston's offense will be much better. Defensive front will get boost if Watt can stay on field to play with Clowney. With Watson and Watt leading team Womens Melvin Gordon Jersey , Texans should shake off last season's struggles to contend for third AFC South title in four years.
The story of tension between the Patriots ownership, coach, and quarterback bubbled under the surface of the Super Bowl.
The result made it even harder to ignore.
But Patriots owner Robert Kraft said that he’s met with both coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady since the season ended, and downplayed any issues the team may or may not have.
“We have meetings all the time,” he said from a walkway outside the Ritz-Carlton in Orlando.
That may be true, but the ESPN story that pointed to the friction between him and his demanding coach and MVP quarterback is still hard to ignore Womens Joey Bosa Jersey , after their loss to the Eagles in the final game of the season. Kraft said that game, and the way it ended colors
“The residual of this loss was hard on everyone,” he said. “But I see that as a high-class problem. . . .
鈥淭he fact that we lost and we lost the way we did, I still haven鈥檛 gotten over it.鈥?/p>
Kraft also said that Belichick and Brady have met, though Belichick told reporters last night that he’s waiting to hear Brady’s thoughts on the future rather than trying to read tea leaves from his “Tom vs. Time” documentary.
But on most matters, Kraft deferred to Belichick’s judgment when it comes to personnel matters. He talked around cornerback Malcolm Butler not playing a snap of defense in the Super Bowl Womens Ryan Shazier Jersey , and downplayed the pressure to find another quarterback of the future after Jimmy Garoppolo was traded.
“I have faith in Bill as a coach,” he said. “He’s done pretty well for us.”
