1:00 p.m. ET: New England Patriots (1-3) at Houston Texans (1-3)

Spread:  Patriots -8
Over/Under: 39

Rookie quarterback Davis Mills endured an unsightly performance in the Texans’ 40-0 loss to the Buffalo Bills last week, completing 11 of 21 attempts for 87 yards while tossing four interceptions and suffering three sacks. Mills led an offense that amassed just 109 yards. The public is pounding the Patriots after the impressive performance against Tom Brady and the Bucs. This line opened at -9 at most books and even with the public pounding the Patriots the line has dropped down to -7.5 at a few books. With the low total on this game and 2 teams with a struggling offense, the Under has the best chance in this one along with a cover from the home team. Take the Texans and the Under in this early game. 

The Bookie:          Texans +8 / Under 39
Fade the Public:   Texans / Under
Sharp Action:       Texans / Over
