Thursday Night Football preview, prediction and discussion for Week 9

The Kansas City Chiefs will close out Week 9 of the NFL season by hosting the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on “Monday Night Football.”

But Week 9 kicks off with the (6-2) Houston Texans on the road against the (2-6) New York Jets on “Thursday Night Football.” Kickoff is set for 7:15 p.m. (Arrowhead Daylight Time) on Amazon Prime, KRIV (FOX/26-Houston) and WNYW (FOX/5-New York).

According to FanDuel Sportsbook, the Jets are favored by 2.5 points.

The Texans will arrive at MetLife Stadium after winning four of their last five frames — most recently a 24-22 road loss to the Green Bay Packers in Week 7, followed by a 23-20 home win against the Indianapolis Colts.
