No. 8 Alfred Blue vs Indianapolis

Houston is not where they thought they’d be to start this season. The offensive line has heavy injury concerns. It’s a slight mess with Houston. I find this week interesting though and here’s why: An 0-2 division hole is a tough thing to climb out of.

Blue has yet to pass 10 carries in a game this season and although scoring in Week 1, Blue hasn’t found the end zone since and has just 49 yards over the past two weeks.

I like Blue at Indianapolis for the reason that Houston is going to come out swinging. Philadelphia used their bevy of backs to their advantage last week with 32 carries and 142 yards on the ground. I know the offensive line is banged up, injuries surely will play into it but could Blue sneakily get going on the ground?
