Houston @ Cleveland
Team Totals: Browns 28.75, Texans 25.25
On fire since Bill O’Brien’s dismissal, Deshaun Watson visits Cleveland with top-10 fantasy finishes in four straight starts and an increase of 14.5 rushing yards per game in the opening month to 34.8 over Houston’s last four games. As the Browns are yielding the NFL’s sixth-most fantasy quarterback points, Watson is a no-brainer QB1 in a plus draw surrounded by one of the league’s healthiest pass-catching casts. … With only third-year UDFA Buddy Howell and possible practice squad callup Scottie Phillips behind him, Duke Johnson looks set to dominate Houston’s backfield in David Johnson’s (concussion) absence. This is a #RevengeGame for Duke, the Miami Hurricanes’ all-time leading rusher who was frustratingly underutilized for five years in Cleveland before the Texans acquired him last offseason for a third-round pick. As David exited in last week’s first quarter, Duke went on to handle 20-of-20 Texans running back touches on 81% of Houston’s offensive snaps.
