Houston Texans at New York Jets
Houston Texans - Joe Mixon Rushing Yards Over 69.5 (-115)
Houston running back Joe Mixon returned to the playing field last Sunday after missing three games and on the season has rushed for 503 yards with an average of 100.6 yards per game. Mixon will face a New York Jets defense that is allowing 125.6 yards per game rushing. I am certain that the Texans running back will have 70 yards or more rushing on Thursday against the Jets.
New York Jets - Total Points Under 21.5 (-120)
The New York Jets are struggling to score points this season as they are averaging 18.8 points per year which is 25th in the NFL. New York scored 22 points this past Sunday versus New England but before that averaged just 15.3 points per game in its previous four games, all of which were losses. New York's opponent Houston is allowing only 22.4 points per game which is 15th or slightly above average. I am convinced the Jets will struggle once again on offense and score 21 or fewer points on Thursday.
