Congratulations if you were one of the one percent of folks that started Ryan Fitzpatrick in your fantasy league.

If you did, there's a good chance you're winning your game this week. Fitzpatrick, stepping back into the starting quarterback role for Houston after Ryan Mallett's season-ending pectoral injury, threw for 358 yards and six touchdowns in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Tennessee Titans.

Fitzpatrick found a groove early and couldn't be stopped. His primary target was DeAndre Hopkins, who had nine receptions for 238 yards and two touchdowns. Andre Johnson, Arian Foster, Ryan Griffin and — yes — J.J. Watt also caught touchdowns from Fitzpatrick.

It's unlikely Fitzpatrick has another game like this in the final four games of the season. But it should give him, and the 6-6 Texans, some confidence entering the final quarter of the season.
