Bill Bender, Sporting News:<\/a> Seahawks 23, Texans 21<\/p>\n

“Ohio State teammates C.J. Stroud and Jaxon Smith-Njigba are the focus of this matchup. The Texans have won two straight and are coming off a bye week. Smith-Njigba leads the NFL with 696 receiving yards. Seattle is 1-2 S\/U at home \u2013 part of a bizarre trend the last two seasons. Houston can steal this one, but we’ll stick with the home team.”<\/p>\n

Vinnie Iyer, Sporting News:<\/a> Seahawks 23, Texans 17<\/p>\n

“This is more about the number than the 4-2 Seahawks being that much better than the 2-3 Texans. Seattle has been crushing it traveling across the country so it will be stocked to have a home game for its loud crowd. Its defense can swarm C.J. Stroud and contain his receivers. On the other side, Klint Kubia will give Mike Macdonald just enough offense.”<\/p>\n

Pete Prisco, CBS Sports:<\/a> Seahawks 23, Texans 17<\/p>\n

“The Seahawks looked dominant in their win at Jacksonville last week, especially on defense. Quarterback Sam Darnold also continues to play well, but he will face a tough Houston defense. The Texans are off a bye, so they are rested. But I think this will come down to the Seattle front getting the best of the Houston offensive line. Poor C.J. Stroud.”<\/p>\n
