It’ll be tough to beat the entertainment value the Rams and Vikings provided last week on Thursday Night Football, but the Houston Texans and New York Jets will give it their best chance when they clash to open the Week 9 NFL schedule. When the NFL was creating the 2024 schedule, nobody would have expected this to be a game between the 6-2 Texans and the 2-6 Jets. However, the spread on the game is tight as can be, so anything can happen and either team has a chance to win.
Given the tight odds for this game, Thursday night is a good time for fans to utilize the current welcome offer from FanDuel Sportsbook. When new users sign up and place a $5 bet, they get $150 in bonus bets if that bet wins. It puts a little pressure on finding a safe bet to make with your first wager. However, the chance to get $150 in bonus bets is an offer that’s too good to pass up, especially with so much going on in the sports world right now.
Spread: Jets -1.5 (-110) vs Texans +1.5 (-110)
Money Line: Jets -126 vs Texans +108
Total: Over 42.5 (-110) vs Under 42.5 (-110)

After you sign up for a FanDuel account, it won’t take long to find out why it’s among the most popular sportsbooks. There is a wide array of betting options and a platform that’s easy to navigate. For example, to bet on Thursday’s game, there are two NFL buttons on the homepage that will take you to a full list of the Week 9 games. Naturally, the Jets-Texans game will be at the top of the page. You’ll see the spread, moneyline, and total bets for every game on that page. You can also click “More wagers” for any game to get a full list of the bets available for that game.
For Thursday’s game, it might be easiest to click on Houston’s moneyline. That means if the Texans beat the Jets, you win your bet and get $150 in bonus bets. After selecting a bet, just insert $5 into the wager box. Your bet slip will then calculate how much of a return you’ll make on that wager. Of course, it’s always a good idea to double-check that everything in your bet slip is accurate before you click the button that locks in your bet.
At 2-6, the Jets are still slight home favorites on Thursday. For a team whose only wins are against the Titans and Patriots, there isn’t much evidence that the Jets are capable of beating a quality opponent. Keep in mind the Jets have lost five in a row despite being favored in three of those games. The Texans are far from perfect, but they’ve been able to hold serve against subpar teams this year. If you want to play it safe, you can tease the spread to take the Texans +7.5 to ensure you get those $150 in bonus bets from FanDuel. However, taking Houston’s moneyline also feels like a safe bet on Thursday night.
