There's a damn good chance Houston is back week 1.

He might be and hope he is there, but missing all of the off season training and camp is not going to make him sharp out of the gate either. I know he will still be decent, although not the same.
We have seen what happens to players that miss all that time. They are anywhere from rusty to injured again from lack of conditioning.
Being solely positive about this situation is disingenuous at best. No the sky is not falling but it is not all sunny and roses either.
