Houston @ New England
Team Totals: Texans 22.5, Patriots 15.5
Missing alpha WR Nico Collins (hamstring) against a well-coached Patriots defense on the road in what profiles as a low-scoring affair, this is a relatively statistically-unfriendly situation for C.J. Stroud, who’s been a fringe QB1/2 scorer to date, anyway. New England has allowed the NFL’s ninth-fewest fantasy quarterback points. … I’m anticipating one more missed week for Joe Mixon (ankle) in a game the Texans should feel confident they’ll win without him. In Week 5’s win over Buffalo, usual special teamer Dare Ogunbowale out-snapped Cam Akers 46 to 22 and out-touched him 21 to 11. Akers was more efficient on the ground, however. I’m valuing both in desperation-flex territory against the Patriots.
