Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson outplayed everyone this week. In the midst of going off against the Atlanta Falcons, Watson was able to finish the game with a perfect passer rating.

That would be the word to sum up his day, as he threw for 426 yards and five scores. Not only did Watson lead his lead to 3-2 on the season but he might have ended Atlantas. The Falcons dropped to 1-4 and questions about the coaching staff and players will inevitably continue to rise.

Houston now sits atop their division as they wait and see what will happen tonight when the Colts take on the Chiefs. This reminds everyone of the Deshaun Watson we saw during his rookie campaign and last season when he was lighting up the league.

The key here is to keep Watson healthy, as his offensive line has let him down. Watson sits among the most sacked quarterbacks in the league and as a player that has suffered from serious knee injuries the Texans have to do better.

This is what Watson is capable of when given the chance to stand in the pocket and make throws. Will Fuller was one of the big beneficiaries from Watsons game as the speedy receiver went for a ridiculous 217 yards and three scores.

When firing on all cylinders, Houston is a scary team that few would want to face. If they can cut down those game in which they seem to just fall asleep, watch out.
