The Saints and Texans are a familiar preseason matchup, but it's just the sixth time they play each other in the regular season.
The Saints travel to Houston on Sunday to take on the Texans as one of the early kicks in Week 6. New Orleans was able to respond in a big way last week after dropping two straight games, while Houston lost in Atlanta on a last-second field goal from the Falcons to end their back-to-back wins. Here's some of the things we're watching this week as it progresses.

As for Prentice's potential absence, J.P. Holtz was added to the practice squad this week, so he could actually play fullback if he's called up. Remember, the Saints can't call up Johnathan Abram again, as he has been used three times. He'd have to go on the active roster if they want to keep him in the lineup.
