Houston Texans vs New York Jets Prediction & Picks - NFL
by Travis Pulver | in NFL Picks
The Houston Texans and New York Jets get Week 9 started when the two AFC teams face off at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on Thursday at 8:15 p.m. ET. Despite their struggles and 2-6 record (and Houston’s 6-2 record), the Jets opened as 2-point favorites. As game time approaches, Texans supporters can find their team at +2.5 (BetMGM), and those looking to back the Jets can find them at -1.5 (FanDuel)—which brings one question to mind…
Why?
Yes, the Jets have a ton of talent on paper, but they have yet to figure out how to play as a team. Last week, they were touchdown favorites against the hapless Patriots and lost by three. Houston, on the other hand, has a top-ten offense (total yards) and the No. 2 defense (total yards allowed). After watching Aaron Rodgers and the Jets offense fall flat throughout the first half of the season, could Rodgers still be on the receiving end of enough respect that bettors think this could be the week he gets the New York offense moving? I
It is possible, and it doesn’t help that the Texans lost Stefon Diggs to a knee injury last week. With Nico Collins unable to return until next week at the earliest, C.J. Stroud may have a hard time finding someone to throw to.

Our Houston Texans vs New York Jets Prediction
This could be a trap game for Houston. New York is struggling on offense, but the defense is still top-notch. Should this be the week Aaron Rodgers finally gets the Jets offense moving, Houston is primed for an upset. However, there is no reason to think the Jets will finally get out of their own way this week. Look for Houston to lean on Joe Mixon and the run game more with the Texans wide receivers struggling with injuries.
Our Texans vs. Jets Prediction: Texans ML at +110
