New England's tremendous defense won another game for the Patriots as Tom Brady and the offense struggled mightily to put points on the board. Brady finished just 17-of-37 for 190 yards and Julian Edelman caught eight passes for 93 yards. Sony Michel rushed 20 times for 85 yards. The Pats are thin at wide receiver though and Brady hasn't been his old self the last several games. Houston hung on and got a much-needed win over the Colts on Thursday night and will have three extra days to prepare for this one. Houston QB Deshaun Watson bounced back from a subpar performance against the Ravens and threw for 298 yards on 19-of-30 with two touchdowns and an interception. Will Fuller had seven receptions for 140 yards and Carlos Hyde rushed for 67 yards. The Texans are 7-2-1 ATS their last 10 games when following a loss and the home team is 8-2-1 ATS the last 11 meetings. Houston is #7 in yards of offense compared to #17 for New England. The Texans have kept it close in every game this season except against Baltimore. Take the points and play on the Texans.
