It is time for Thursday Night Football and this week’s game has... playoff implications?
At least early playoff implications, as it is between two teams who sit at the fourth and eighth seed respectively.
Miami Dolphins (4-3) at Houston Texans (4-3)

Odds: Texans -7 | O/U: 44
The Texans are huge home favorites, but they have to take on former quarterback who they paid to go away in Brock Osweiler.
Could this be an Osweiler revenge game?
Meanwhile, the Houston Texans boast one of the better defenses, at least scoring wise, in the NFL.
Offensively, the Dolphins are banged up, as the aforementioned Osweiler will be starting at quarterback, but the Dolphins are hurting at wide receiver and running back as well.
The Texans feel like the easy pick in this game, but it is Thursday Night Football.
