This pick became more difficult with the Titans' switch to rookie Zach Mettenberger at quarterback this week. Sometimes a quarterback who has put essentially nothing on film can surprise an opponent enough to beat them.

I don't believe that will happen this weekend.

The Titans think Mettenberger could provide a "spark." The problem is, they've got plenty of offensive problems besides their quarterback situation, enough that they trail the Texans' struggling offense in nearly every category: yards per game, yards per play, rushing yards per game, passing yards per game, sacks allowed per pass attempt and first downs per game. Defensively, the Titans rank 23rd in points allowed per game while the Texans rank 11th.

Prediction: Texans 17, Titans 10
