The Philadelphia Eagles will be one of the most challenging opponents that the Houston Texans will play on their 2022 schedule, and on short rest, things seem primed to turn into a bloodbath for the team in Week 9. At 1-5-1, the Texans are among the NFL’s worst teams by record and stand next to no chance of improving that mark on Thursday night.
Head coach Lovie Smith addressed the challenge of playing against such a talented team on Tuesday in his comments to the media at a team press conference. Every part of the Eagles’ roster will present difficulties for Houston in the matchup, but the defense in particular will be a key mismatch against the Texans’ struggling offense.
