Tampa Bay @ Houston
Team Totals: Texans 21, Bucs 19
The Bucs visit Houston with pathetic point totals of 6 (vs. DET), 13 (vs. ATL), and 18 (@ BUF) over their last three games. Baker Mayfield has exceeded 275 passing yards once all season, while HC DeMeco Ryans’ Texans have permitted an NFL-low five touchdown passes. … Amid speculation his poor rushing efficiency might cost Rachaad White playing time, he’s logged snap rates of 70% or more in all seven games and caught all 13 of his targets for 135 yards over the past two weeks. White has hit paydirt just twice in 15 career starts and continues to deal with league-worst run blocking. Against a Texans defense that’s been middling in fantasy points allowed to running backs, White is a passable if unexciting RB2/flex starter.
Mayfield’s 2023 target distribution: Chris Godwin 56; Mike Evans 55; White 30; Cade Otton 29; Trey Palmer 23; Deven Thompkins 18. … In addition to targets, Godwin leads the Bucs in catches (38) and first-down conversions (25) on Mayfield’s throws. Godwin has netted at least five receptions in six of seven games.
