    I think the streak continues. The Jets are one of the worst offenses in the league and they have one of the worst run defenses in the league.

    I would expect the Texans to take an early lead then run out the clock on the ground.

    Sounds like a bad weather game. Sucks because I wanted CJ to hit 5k this season. Texans win a sloppy game

    CJ with 299 passing yards to allow the Jets to continue having something to cheer about.

    I keep hearing the jets run defense is bad, but yards per carry they are 13th best (above average). I think when people say their run defense is bad they are looking at rushing yards given up per game which is dumb. Denver's run defense is worst in the league (5.5 yards per carry) and we couldn't do **** with that

    Texans are one of the worst run offense in the league, Carolina was one of the worst run defense and one of the worst offense, and texans lost, because Slowik kept running in 1st and 2nd downs only for 2 or 3 gain yards, having a predictable 3rd and long, that Panthers blitzed Stroud, and could stop him, also Broncos is one of the worst run defenses, and the couldnt run the ball that much. Texans took an early lead, and Slowik tried to run out the clock, and texans almost lost because of that.

    Their run defense and defense in general isn’t bad, they’re offense is at this point prob the worst in the league and can’t come back from behind, so teams can just run the ball at will knowing their defense will stop the Jets offense. The jets oline might as well be turnstiles at this point. Expect a big day from the front

    The Jets are in shambles, so this *should* be a pretty easy win for the Texans. Haven't had one of those since the Steelers game. Then again, there was the Carolina loss and Arizona close win, so who knows.

    The Jets' terrible field concerns me a little.

    Since the forecast is rain, what equipment is now available for griping the ball? I know the stickum has been restricted. I've seen some receivers with tacky gloves. Is there something like a surgical glove that a QB could use which doesn't affect his feel but offers enhanced grip?

    Should we equip our d backs with sticky gloves?

    I think the weather forecast is pushing the line down, Vegas is thinking low scoring
