NE is "only" 'bout a 8-9 fav at this point, due no doubt to this being a classic "trap game" for the Pats as they are bound to be flat, both physically and emotionally, after their big 5 quarter, OT win over Denver this past weekend, and of course it's a road game in a dome-stadium over the big ThanksGiving weekend. If the Texans happen to jump off to an early lead, they might make it an entertaining, even a competitive game.
BTW, former Texans 6th round pick Chris Jones and now starting NE DT has 5 sacks this year. Between Jones, Griffin, & Quessenberry, how is it that the Texans' 6th round picks have turned out so much better than their third round picks this year ?
