Here's how I see Sunday's matchup playing out ...When the Texans have the ball: Quarterback C.J. Stroud has played really good football over the past two games, coinciding with Nico Collins' return from a hamstring injury.
The Texans might not be as elite a team as we thought they were before the season, but they're still good. C.J. Stroud might be playing the best football of his career and we could see the Marvin Harrison Jr.
Back C.J. Stroud and Houston to deliver an upset, Drake Maye and New England to cover, and two tight ends to clear their receiving totals Oct 16, 2026 at 7:53 am ET • 4 min read We are definitely moving in the right direction with our best bets.
