THE KEY MATCHUP

The quarterbacks

It seems likely the Ticats won't ask third-string QB David Watford (Dane Evans is injured and Jeremiah Masoli is banged up) to do too much. Just try to grind it out and eat up time on the clock. Count on a heavy dose of the ground game, coming at the Redblacks from all angles, with some passes thrown in to keep them off guard. Redblacks QB Dominique Davis has won the job from Matt Nichols and has to avoid making big mistakes. Like Watford, he has the ability to use his feet to pick up yards.
