The Houston Texans take on the Minnesota Vikings September 22nd, 2024 at U.S. Bank Stadium at 1:00 pm
The Houston Texans travel to U.S. Bank Stadium to face the Minnesota Vikings in a Week 3 matchup. Both teams are off to hot starts with 2-0 records. Texans’ QB C.J. Stroud has been efficient, completing 47 of 68 passes for 494 yards, 3 touchdowns, and no interceptions. Joe Mixon has been solid on the ground, but his questionable status could be a concern. Nico Collins has been a standout receiver with 252 yards and a touchdown. The Texans’ defense has shown resilience, but injuries to key players like Jeff Okudah and Jarrett Patterson could impact their performance. On the Vikings’ side, QB Sam Darnold has thrown for 476 yards and 4 touchdowns but has also been intercepted twice. Aaron Jones and Ty Chandler have been effective in the run game, averaging 5.5 yards per carry. Justin Jefferson has been explosive, with 192 receiving yards and 2 touchdowns. However, the Vikings are also dealing with injuries, including Aaron Jones and Justin Jefferson, both of whom are questionable. Given the Texans’ recent ATS performance and the Vikings’ home-field advantage, this game is expected to be tightly contested. The Vikings’ offensive efficiency and the Texans’ defensive injuries tilt the balance slightly in favor of Minnesota.
