Your Sunday Night open thread
The 6-3 Houston Texans will host the 7-1 Detroit Lions on Sunday Night Football.
This promises to be a great game between two of the rising forces on the NFL landscape. Both teams are a bit beat up, with the Lions missing offensive tackle Taylor Decker and the Texans missing edge defender Will Anderson Jr. However, they both have excellent offenses helmed by extremely efficient quarterbacks.
The Lions are slim favorites on the road, with a mere 3.5-point advantage per FanDuel Sportsbook. Will that hold true? Or will the Texans come away with the win at home?
Chris’ pick: I’m going to go with the line and pick the Lions.
I think this is going to be a fantastic game and I could definitely see the Texans coming out on top. However the Lions’ offense is just too good, even with the loss of Taylor Decker this game. They should still be able to run the ball and execute play-action, which will help take the pressure off the pass protection.
I’m looking forward to seeing C.J. Stroud against the Lions’ defense, but generally offensive is predictive of success and the Lions have one of the most prolific in the NFL.
