Houston Texans vs. Carolina Panthers Prediction
Houston will begin play, representing a record of 3-3. The Texans are off to a surprisingly good start.
The main reason for the good start is rookie quarterback CJ Stroud.
Stroud was selected No. 2 overall after the Panthers passed up on him with the No. 1 pick. He has thrown for 1,660 yards, nine touchdowns, and one interception.
Running back Dameon Pierce leads the team in rushing with 281 yards and one touchdown.
Nico Collins has been the favorite target of Stroud. Collins leads the team with 547 yards and three touchdowns.
The Houston defense has played well, ranking 12th in scoring defense.
Carolina will be in search of their first win this weekend. The Panthers are 0-6 as we begin play on Sunday.
Carolina selected Bryce Young first overall in this year's draft ahead of Stroud.
This game may show who the right pick was.
Young has struggled at times this season. Young has thrown for 967 yards, six touchdowns, and four interceptions.
Running back Chubba Hubbard leads the team in rushing with 242 yards and one touchdown.
Veteran wide receiver Adam Thielen has had an outstanding season, racking up 509 yards and four touchdowns.
The Carolina defense has struggled this season, ranking 28th in scoring defense.
Houston Texans vs. Carolina Panthers Pick
Carolina could not be more due for a win and they will get it this weekend.
This game will motivate Young, who has played better as of late.
This is a Carolina line all the way, and I will trust the home team to take care of business this weekend.
