The Houston Texans host the Jaguars this Sunday, with CJ Stroud and company looking to get back on track after getting pounded by the Vikings last week.

The Jaguars also come into this matchup hungry for a win, having started the season 0-3.

On defense, the Texans will need better production from their interior defensive linemen this week. Houston's defensive tackles rank second to last in the league this year according to PFF, and HC DeMeco Ryans made a point of saying he wants to see some improvement from that group.

Big week coming for Nico Collins?

Collins popped up on the injury report on Thursday with a hamstring issue, but if he's able to play, the matchup for him is fantastic.

The Jaguars lead the league in using man coverage, and they've employed press coverage over 80% of the time this season. No receiver in the league has better numbers against those coverages than Nico.

Collins leads the NFL in first downs per route run versus man and press coverage.

Houston may have to lean on Collins (assuming his hamstring is good) and Stefon Diggs this week, with Tank Dell likely unavailable for the game with an injury to his chest/ribs.

Dell injured himself at the end of the Vikings game on a meaningless drive, with backup QB Davis Mills in for Stroud.

What does Vegas think?

Depending on which sportsbook you're looking at, the Texans are favored by either 6 or 6.5 points.

The total for the game comes in at 45.5.
