A short week for the Miami Dolphins and Houston Texans leads into the opening game of Week 8 for the NFL. The two 4-3 teams will face off, with Miami looking to get themselves back on track after a loss to the Detroit Lions last week while the Texans are riding high on a four-game winning streak after starting the year 0-3.
Thursday Night Football typically favors the home team, as the away team has to build in travel time along with trying to get a team banged up from Sunday ready to play just four days later.
