New England Patriots Week 3: 5 things to know about the Houston Texans
4. Brock Osweiler is throwing interceptions
Only Jameis Winston has thrown more interceptions than Osweiler so far this season. The former Denver Broncos quarterback tossed a pick in Week 1 and then two interceptions in Week 2.
To put it in perspective, Osweiler has already thrown half as many interceptions as he did in all of last season. It becomes a little bit tougher to play quarterback once you get outside of Denver.
Not counting Duron Harmon’s gift-wrapped interception in the end zone to close out Week 2, the Pats have had only one real interception through two games, and that was the Jamie Collins’ theft of Ryan Tannehill on Sunday. This writer is looking for a member of the Patriots’ cornerback group, be it Malcolm Butler or Logan Ryan or Justin Coleman or Cyrus Jones, to come up with a big play in Week 3.
