HOUSTON — The Jets take the field at NRG Stadium here on Sunday at 1 p.m. to face the Texans in need of a win.
Yeah, yeah: Every team talks about how every game is a must-win. But the Jets are currently on the outside-looking-in for a playoff spot (albeit with seven games to play), and the AFC has eight teams logjammed within the records of 6-4 and 4-6. The Jets need this one to keep pace with an increasingly crowded field of mediocrity.
Per Bovada, the Jets are favored by three points.
