Houston Texans Head Coach Bill O'Brien is awfully grateful to have DeShaun Watson as his quarterback. In a close 29-2 win against the New York Jets, Watson threw for 22/28 from under center and had 294 yards and two touchdowns on the day.

O'Brien told reporters after the game:

“Thank God he is our quarterback. That was going through my mind. He's a great player. He wants the ball in those situations, that's always been the case with him from the time he was 12 years old. We have faith in him to be able to direct it.”

Watson is having a top-notch season under center for the Texans. The second-year quarterback out of Clemson has thrown for 22 touchdowns and only 9 interceptions going into Saturday’s game against the Jets. He’s thrown for over 3,298 yards and has a passer rating of 100.9. His completion percentage is at 66.9 percent. He has rushed for 410 yards and collected two rushing touchdowns on the year.
