5 minHouston Texans vs. Jacksonville Jaguars Player Prop: Can Nico Collins Continue to Cook in Week 3?
The Houston Texans have been bad this season, but the passing game hasn't been horrible. CJ Stroud has found his new favorite receiver in Nico Collins, and so far, after two games, he is averaging ten targets a game while also averaging more than 100 yards a game. I believe the Texans will be passing a lot today, and Collins will continue to soar past his receiving line.

Houston Texans vs. Jacksonville Jaguars Prediction
On the season, Collins had soared over this line in both of his first two games. I'm all for Nico Collins being the No. 1 receiver in Houston this season, showing he's reliable when given an opportunity. In the first two games of the season, Collins had 11 and nine targets, with 80 and 146 receiving yards.
Other guys on the team will receive targets, like Robert Woods and Tank Dell, but Nico is making the most of his catches this season, averaging over 17 yards per catch. The Jaguars gave up a decent amount of passing yards this season, giving up good games to both Anthony Richardson and Patrick Mahomes.
The Jaguars are also allowing the sixth most passing yards this season. They're also 7.5-point favorites, so I believe the Texans will be playing from behind most of the game and passing the ball. The over/under is also 43.5, so I believe the ball will be moving up and down the field at a pretty good pace, which means more plays will happen. Collins has been crushing his lines early in this season, and I believe he'll crush this line yet again today.
