Sunday Night Football Houston Texans VS San Francisco 49ers: Predictions and Fantasy Football Stats / Can Houston Pull Off a Win on the Road? [October 6, 2013] [WATCH ONLINE]

After an embarrassing home loss to the Seahawks last week, the Houston Texans are looking to redeem themselves against the San Francisco 49ers on the road this Sunday night. The game has the promise to either make or break the teams' season and much of the responsibility lies on Matt Schaub behind center. Some fantasy predictions by Tim from battleredblog.com suggest that Schaub will have at least two touchdown passes. Tim writes, "Matt Schaub answers the bell. This isn't to say he throws for 350 yards, 4 TDs, and plays turnover-free football. I'm not even going to predict he refrains from throwing a pick-six for a fourth consecutive game; I learned that lesson last week in this space. What I will say is that Schaub throws two TDs (one to Andre Johnson for his first TD catch of the season), turns it over once, and begins the slow climb toward regaining trust of his team."

Is it possible that the Houston Texans will be able to take down the 2012 Super Bowl contenders? Will Colin Kaepernick fall prey to the Texans' massive defense? Tim from Battleredblog.com writes, "Call it a hunch. Call it irrational. Call it absurd. Those are all totally legitimate reactions to what I'm about to type. I believe tomorrow's game against the San Francisco 49ers is going to be this team's finest hour to date. The Texans are going to respond to the adversity, to the calls for heads and jobs, to the rumblings that they're about to fall apart and that a season will be lost. They are going to beat a Super Bowl contender on the road. Texans 27, 49ers 23."
