There are a lot of question marks about the Houston Texans' offense with newcomer QB Brock Osweiler and backups Tom Savage and Brandon Weeden. They open the season on the West Coast, a tough road trip for a San Francisco franchise bringing in a new coaching staff. There is a big battle at QB going on for the 49ers with Blaine Gabbert and Colin Kaepernick currently listed as co-starters. 49ers coach Chip Kelly said he won't make a decision on the starting quarterback for Sunday's exhibition opener until this week of practice is complete. So these two guys are fighting for the starting job and a potential bigger payday down the road. New coaches often want to impress their fans and bosses and in the case of Kelly he has asked his teams to play harder in preseason than most coaches, with a winning preseason record along with a 5-1 SU/ATS August run. Kelly's style is all about running an uptempo, no-huddle attack to put points on the board and wear out defenses. Last preseason his teams went 3-1 SU/ATS scoring 36, 40, 39 and 18 points. His teams are on a 5-1 SU/ATS preseason run, scoring 31, 37, 36, 40 and 39 points in the victories. Kelly is also 10-2 OVER the total in preseason, so grab the home team in an offensive show. Play the 49ers + OVER.
