Upcoming in NFL Week 9 is Texans Vs Jaguars. The Houston Texans and Jacksonville Jaguars will renew their AFC South rivalry when they face off in the final London game of the season. The game will be played at Wembley Stadium on Sunday, November 3 and is scheduled to begin at 9:30 PM. ET.
The Texans were able to bounce back from their loss to the Indianapolis Colts with a win over the Oakland Raiders in their last game, but the win came at a cost as the team lost defensive star J.J. Watt to a season-ending pectoral injury.
With the team trading Jadeveon Clowney to the Seattle Seahawks before the start of the season, they will need someone else to step up and apply pressure on the quarterback between Texans Vs Jaguars in NFL week 9.
Deshaun Watson continues to play well for the Texans and finished their last game completing 27 of 39 passes for 279 yards and three touchdowns.
Carlos Hyde also continued his recent run of solid play in the backfield, rushing for 83 yards on 19 carries.
The defense was unable to sack Derek Carr, who finished with 285 yards and three touchdowns and will need to find a way to disrupt Gardner Minshew if they want to get the win on Sunday.
The Jaguars had no problems taking care of the New York Jets as they picked up their second consecutive win to stay within a game of the Texans and two games behind the Indianapolis Colts, who they face in their next game.
Betting on Texans Vs Jaguars
They will be trying to pick up the win over the Texans and move within a game of the Colts and try to take the outright division win when they face the Colts. However, they will need to get past the Texans first, and will have their hands full with Watson, who is a front-runner for the MVP award. How will odds go down between Texans vs Jaguars?
Minshew continues to play well for the Texans and completed 22 of 34 passes for 279 yards and three touchdowns in the win over the Jets. Leonard Fournette also added 79 yards on the ground for the Jaguars, who controlled the game from the opening tip.
Jacksonville’s defense sacked Sam Darnold eight times in that game and will need to be aggressive once again and try to force Watson to make costly mistakes.
The betting lines for this game are not yet available. The Texans won a one-point game over the Jaguars in their first meeting in Houston, which was Minshew’s first career start in the NFL. With the rookie playing well and the defense causing havoc on opposing offensive lines, the Jaguars look like the best bet here. Also take the under in this game for NFL Week 9.
