The Jacksonville Jaguars (5-3) will face the Houston Texans (3-5) at 1:00 p.m. EST on Sunday, Nov. 9, at NRG Stadium.
According to FanDuel Sportsbook, the Jaguars are 1.5-point underdogs and the total is
set at 38.5 points.
That is a low total!
Over the past two and a half seasons, there have only been two Jaguars games with a lower total (Week 14 of 2024 vs CLE; Week 17 of 2025 vs TEN), per Covers.com.
Jacksonville is coming off an overtime thriller in Las Vegas in which there were 0 points scored in the first 20 minutes, then 59 combined points over the next 50 minutes. Josh Hines-Allen got 1.5 sacks to tie Tony Bracken’s franchise record of 55 career sacks… but with Travon Walker getting ejected for throwing a punch, Geno Smith mostly had all the time in the world to throw. He entered the day averaging 1.0 TDs per game and ended up passing for 4.
I’m very nervous about the Jaguars’ pass rush (barring a trade, of course). Even Houston’s embarrassment of an offensive line, and Jacksonville’s mostly good performance against that group in Week 3, can’t change my mind (barring a trade, of course).
C.J. Stroud and Nico Collins could be in cruise control at home against this Jaguars defense that was missing Devin Lloyd, Eric Murray, Travis Hunter, and Jourdan Lewis (hurt on the second play) on Sunday. The Texans may come close to reaching the game total themselves.
Good thing we have Trevor Lawrence, right, MCG?
