Will Anderson Jr. took it upon himself to get things going in Houston this week after starting 0-2 ... again. My report Via @JamesPalmerTV on X

What happened: Houston fell to 0-2 for the second straight season. Anderson took it upon himself to drive the response during the week.

Why it matters: Early 0-2 holes narrow margin in the AFC race and raise pressure on the pass rush to create short fields. Will Anderson Jr. is the centerpiece of that front after a disruptive Week 2 outing.

By the numbers: Week 2: 8 stop tackles, 5 pressures, 2 sacks, 1 QB hit, 1 batted pass.

What to watch: Watch whether Houston converts the spark into its first win in Week 3.
