The 9-5 Houston Texans can clinch their spot in the playoffs with a win over the 7-7 Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Saturday.
A matchup between two of the NFL’s best offenses, the Texans and Buccaneers have momentum. Houston is coming off of a big victory, beating the 8-6 Tennessee Titans last Sunday. Tampa Bay has won four in a row behind Jameis Winston.
The Bucs will be without their top-two wide receivers in Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. However, the Texans’ inconsistencies mean that Tampa Bay won’t easily fold on Saturday. Or will they? The experts make their picks.
CBS Sports (Pete Prisco): Buccaneers
Pete Prisco of CBS Sports expects a close game on Saturday. However, he has the Texans losing the game that can win them the AFC South, in large part due to Jameis Winston’s play as of late.
Said Prisco:
“The Bucs are rolling, having won four consecutive games. But they are out of playoff contention, while the Texans can lock up the AFC South with a victory. That matters. But so does the way Jameis Winston is playing. This will be a fun, high-scoring game as the Bucs take it.”
Pick: Buccaneers, 31-30
