Cardinals, Newton has been eratic as a passer all preseason & Airzona usually always plays well @ home. Not to mention they were a top fantasy defense last year. Gluck

I'm going with Houston as well. As much of a veteran Collins is, he's only 2 weeks into learning that offense and bound to make a mistake. Arizona is a solid play as well (thats who i've got on my roster).

Good luck

Take a look at mine?

Arizona is a solid play but I'm leaning towards Houston here. Home game, I expect the Texans to get up early and force Collins to air it out, forcing some picks, maybe a couple sacks. Neither are bad plays and both should give you positives, though.

Id roll with Arizona... Cam Newtowns 1st game...i could see a few Interceptions for the Cards and maybe 1 gets returned for a score.

I think you will be alright with either Carolina or Houston. both have their upsides ...

Cam is a rookie, and this will be his first pro football game at full speed, I dont think he will be able to handle it, I forsee at least a couple of INT's and not many long completions. the only downside, is that he will be rushed and Cam can handle himself on his feet! He might end up having half as much rushing yards as passing! lol

Houston has re-vamped their defense ... and with the addition of JJ Watt on the line and Mario as an OLB and a great new defensive coordinator, I see them being an decent defensive team. I still think that the Texans weak point is their secondary, but thats what makes this week a good matchup for them against the non-Manning Colts, I see the colts running more than passing, and houston will stop them.

If it was up to me, I would go with the Texans ... but then again, they are my team!

Best of luck!

I think after a few series, its gonna be the Addai show....

Zona is a good play here, but I think you'll see a few points more (which may mean the difference in your matchup this week) with the Houston play.
