The Kansas City Chiefs close out Week 9 of the NFL season by hosting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on “Monday Night Football.”

But Week 9 kicks off with the (6-2) Houston Texans on the road against the (2-6) New York Jets on “Thursday Night Football.” Kick-off is scheduled for 7:15 PM (Arrowhead Daylight Time). Amazon Prime, KRIV (FOX/26-Houston) and WNYW (FOX/5-New York).

According to FanDuel Sportsbookthe Jets are favored by 2.5 points.

The Texans arrive at MetLife Stadium having won four of their last five frames – most recently a 24-22 loss to the Green Bay Packers in Week 7, followed by a 23-20 home win against the Indianapolis Colts. Meanwhile, the Jets are suffering five straight losses – the last two on the road. Two weeks ago they suffered a 37-15 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. New York couldn’t close out a win on Sunday. After taking a 22-17 lead with just under three minutes remaining, the Jets surrendered a 12-play, 70-yard touchdown drive that secured a 25-22 victory for the New England Patriots.

I can’t go with the oddsmakers on this one. I think the Texans will win this one 24-10.
