From the episode

Texas have a couple issues that defensive tackle and their edge depth. Like Jadavion Clowney has been missing some time, too. So I think the matchup is definitely difficult. It's maybe not as difficult as you'd possibly think heading into this season.

STACKED’s take

NeutralMatchup

Texans defense has gaps; Taylor produced well vs. Houston last year despite backup QB.

Taylor faces a tough Texans defense, but the matchup may not be as difficult as expected. The Texans have defensive issues at tackle and edge depth, with Jadavion Clowney missing time. Taylor had 86 rushing yards plus 36 receiving yards against Houston in week 13 last year (when Daniel Jones was injured and the Colts used a backup QB in week 18). The Colts are ninth in scoring despite two difficult early matchups, and Shane Steichen's offense is competent, suggesting Taylor can still produce in this spot.
