While this is correct, there is also the fact that the Texans (stubbornly) kept two safeties deep all night to avoid giving up deep passes.  This is a perfect example of how having weapons with speed (Hill), versatility (Kelce), and just overall talent (Watkins) in the receiving corps can help open things up for the rushing attack.  

Think the Bengals can do that with Ross, Green, Boyd, Tate, Higgings, and  Uzo/Sample?  I sure hope so.  The bad news is that it is looking like Atkins might miss the opener.  This could become a shootout.
