The Jets are a hard team to figure. They started out hot and then they've collapsed as the injuries have piled up. They're a team the Texans *can* match up with plus they'll be at home.
If they can somehow manage to win 2 of the next 3, they set up nicely for the home stretch (after losses to New England and Indy). They close with Jacksonville and Tennessee. That winds up as an 8-8 season and maybe 9-7 if they can pull off another miracle but I'm not predicting that.

Yep. The Texan defense will need to continue to play like they have in the last two games. They haven't allowed a touchdown in 10 quarters, now.... Hoyer or TJ or whomever needs to figure out how to manufacture some points against this good Jet defense....
It would also be a great time to beat the Colts in Indy...... During that game, you know the announcers will inform us viewers, "You know, the Texans have never won in Indianapolis" 528 times.
I would really like to see that comment die a harsh death....
I'm starting to feel a bit better about this Jets game.... I'm seeing some sharp action leaning towards the Texans side. But that doesn't mean anything - the sharps can be wrong..... They're just less wrong than the general public over time....
