2 reasons J.J. Watt will be a difference-maker for the Texans on Saturday
PALLILO POINTS

The Texans have a big playoff game against the Buffalo Bills on Saturday and JJ Watt is expected play for the first time since tearing his pectoral muscle while playing against the Raiders in late October.
ESPN 97.5's Charlie Pallilo shares his thoughts on how big an impact Watt will have in his first game back from injury.
The Houston Astros sent a message loud and clear with one of their most emphatic wins of the season, an 18-1 demolition of the Los Angeles Dodgers, and they did it without Yordan Alvarez or Jeremy Peña in the lineup.
Jose Altuve silenced the Dodger Stadium boos with a pair of home runs and even stayed after the game to sign autographs for young fans. Lance McCullers Jr. delivered six strong innings in a bounce-back outing, and the offense erupted behind big nights from Zach Short, Cam Smith, Yainer Díaz, and Christian Walker.
With key contributions across the board, this was a total team win, one that highlights the depth, momentum, and legitimacy of this Astros squad as the second half approaches. Manager Joe Espada is pressing all the right buttons, and with All-Star nods for Josh Hader, Hunter Brown, and Peña, Houston looks like a team no one wants to face right now.
