Jaguars fans, who are you picking in tonight’s game between the Texans and Cowboys?
Monday Night Football kicks off tonight at 8:15 p.m. EST as the Dallas Cowboys host the Houston Texans in a battle over the Lone Star State at AT&T Stadium.
The Texans are 7-point favorites, according to FanDuel Sportsbook, and the total is 41.5 points.
I absolutely love Houston tonight. DeMeco Ryans’ squad was expected to be Super Bowl contenders as soon as this season, but it’s been a slow start with the Texans sitting at “only” 6-4. It’s felt like an underwhelming year largely because Houston has lost by one score in three of its past four games, including consecutive primetime losses. Ryans should have his team more than motivated tonight for an in-state rivalry against a backup quarterback.
Best of luck to you, Cooper Rush! The Texans will be out for blood tonight.
For any prop betters, consider some Joe Mixon overs tonight. He’ll have a favorable game script if Houston controls this game as well as I expect. Dallas’ defense ranks bottom-five in EPA per rush, rushing success rate, rushing touchdowns, rushing first downs, and running back fantasy points allowed this year.
This is now an open thread. Let us know your thoughts on Texans vs Cowboys in the comments below!
