"The Texans, winners of the AFC South in both seasons under DeMeco Ryans, boast a fierce defense led by pass rushers Will Anderson and Danielle Hunter, linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair, and cornerback Derek Stingley. "It starts with DeMeco Ryans," said Mayfield. "You understand that he's going to demand his guys to play extremely hard. They fly to the ball. They are going to play really hard.""
"Tampa Bay will look to extend two streaks - a run of five straight 2-0 starts and six consecutive Week One victories - while also chasing a first-ever road win in Houston. The Bucs are 0-7 all-time there, including four losses to the Oilers before their move to Tennessee. Prime-time games have also been a hurdle. Tampa Bay dropped all six of its regular-season night contests across 2023-24, but Baker Mayfield is eager for the spotlight."
Tampa Bay opened the season with a division win over Atlanta and now travels to Houston for Monday Night Football, seeking a first-ever road victory there. The Bucs aim to extend five straight 2-0 season starts and six consecutive Week One wins despite an 0-7 all-time record in Houston and six regular-season prime-time losses across 2023-24. Baker Mayfield remains eager for the spotlight while Todd Bowles emphasizes preparing for night-game rhythm. Houston, led by DeMeco Ryans, fields a fierce defense with Will Anderson, Danielle Hunter, Azeez Al-Shaair and Derek Stingley, while C.J. Stroud headlines the offense. Mayfield leads the NFL with 72 touchdown passes since 2023. Prediction: Bucs 17-24 Texans
