Biggest surprises from Week 1 in the NFL – ESPN


Kind of hard to pick the biggest surprise because there were so many: 10 sacks on Houston QBs, no turnovers committed, a plus-4 turnover ratio. However, the play of the offensive line was the most impressive. They cleared the way for 155 yards rushing and stymied the Texans’ pass rush. Zero sacks allowed against J.J. Watt, Whitney Mercilus, and Jadeveon Clowney despite the fact that rookie Cam Robinson started at left tackle. “I thought they did a nice job,” coach Doug Marrone said of the OL. “I thought they were up for what was, obviously, a great challenge.”
