New England Patriots @ Houston Texans

So this is the biggest game in franchise history. Without this win the Texans are out of the playoffs. With the win, they’ll need some help but are very much with hopes to make the postseason. Houston has gone on their 3 game streak at the perfect time and have some momentum for the last game of the regular season going against the Patriots. The good thing for the Texans is that New England has clinched their division and a spot in the playoffs. Meaning Belichick just may give his starters a rest. If this happens it could be a gift for Houston

Needs To Win:

Houston needs to do what they do best and that’s pass the ball. Andre Johnson has very quietly had the best year of all WR’s this year. He needs to have the ball in his hands for Houston to win this game. Defensively, rush the QB and disrupt the timing of their short attack offense. They are a quick passing, screen running type offense. Houston has been a very good tackling defense this year, they will need to wrap up this game.

Prediction

Houston by 13
