Williams was only able to muster 93 yards in the 24-17 victory over the Titans, which the Bears won without scoring a single offensive touchdown. Worse still, Williams could be without two of his top targets in Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze at NRG Stadium tonight, and the latter won't return for some time if his knee injury is as bad as feared.

There were no signs of a sophomore slump as Stroud threw for 234 yards and two touchdowns in the Texans' thrilling 29-27 victory over the Colts, but the real star of the show was Joe Mixon, who charged his way to 178 yards on his Houston debut. And against a Bears unit that surrendered more than five yards per carry last weekend, the former Bengal may well have another field day.

Right now DraftKings has the Texans as heavy 6-point favorites at home. Make sure you don't miss Bears vs Texans, or any of this season's football with our NFL live streams guide .
