Texans vs. Panthers: What's the Game Plan for Houston?

The Houston Texans will obviously need to run the ball to win, but I'd like to see them come out early with a focus on the quick passing game.

Part of what made Ryan Mallett so effective last season during his great game at Cleveland was how quickly he was able to make a decision and get rid of the football.

According to Pro Football Focus—via the Battle Red Blog—Mallett took an average of 2.06 seconds per pass attempt, which was easily the quickest time in the league that week.
