Fitzpatrick struggles in preseason opener
Texans QB played much of the first half

| The Ryan Fitzpatrick-era opened with a sinking thud Saturday, as the Texans’ veteran quarterback completed just 6-of-14 passes for 55 yards, two interceptions and an abysmal 14.6 passer rating during the first half against the Arizona Cardinals at University of Phoenix Stadium.
Fitzpatrick, 31, guided the Texans to back-to-back three-and-outs to open the game, then threw an interception to Arizona linebacker Marcus Benard to end the Texans’ final drive of the first half. (Houston Chronicle)
FFToday's Take: The Texans played without running back Arian Foster and wide receiver Andre Johnson (hamstring) and many teams won't put their best foot forward in preseason but this being a new offense under a new head coach, it would be nice to see Fitzpatrick display some success before Week 1. He has three more games to right the ship.
