Over that two-game winning streak (longest of the season), has made a noticeable improvement as a pa ser, completing nearly 77% of his throws while committing zero turnovers. He still has yet to really uncork his arm, but the veteran is doing just enough through the air to keep New England's drives alive while also not shooting themselves in the foot with a turnover. As Newton steers the ship, the offense has recently been carried by a youth movement headlined Los Angeles Rams Men Jersey by receiver and running back . Since jumping up to a starter, Meyers has built up quite the connection with Newton, catching 23 pa ses for 286 yards over three games. He also flashed his arm, completing a 24-yard pa s to in the win over Baltimore last week. With injuries derailing and involvement in the offense, this breakout by Meyers couldn't have come at a better time for Josh McDaniels.While Meyers is helping the pa sing game move, the Patriots have embraced a running identity, which is where Harris and Newton have dominated. Harris logged his third 100-yard outing last week against Baltimore, totaling a career-high 121 rushing yards on 5.5 yards per carry. Newton has primarily been a rushing threat in the red zone, scoring nine touchdowns entering Week 11. This will be a key focus to Sunday's game with Houston as the Texans have the worst run defense in the entire NFL.As for Deshaun Watson, the Texans quarterback has flashed his brilliance a number of times, but the talent just isn't around him for Houston to make a significant impact. Their two wins Matthew Orzech Jersey on the season came against the and are 0-6 against every other opponent this year. When you take Jacksonville, arguably the worst or second-worst team in the NFL, out of the equation, the Texans defense is allowing 33.8 points per game. The defense has also struggled at creating momentum plays for Watson and the offense, having just five takeaways this season, which is the fewest in the NFL.PredictionThe Patriots should come away with this game thanks to Houston's weakne ses playing right into New Engalnd's strengths. Cam Newton and Damien Harris should continue to have tremendous succe s on the ground against a horrid Texans run defense that just allowed the Browns to total 231 yards on the ground on 5.6 yards per carry in Week 10. That ground game will help New England control time of po se sion and create opportunities for Newton to throw the ball out of play-action or an RPO.
