Texans vs Jaguars FanDuel Showdown Breakdown Week 6 London

Houston Texans at Jacksonville Jaguars kicks off on Sunday October 18 at 9:30 AM Eastern at Wembley Stadium in London, the Sunday morning international game, and it is a one game slate. Below is the full FTA projection board for the FanDuel single game slate, the optimal lineup, the MVP leverage board and the low owned screen, with every number taken from the same simulation set that feeds our tools.

What the slate shape says before you look at a single player

Our simulations put this game at 43.0 total points, with the Jaguars at 22.3 and the Texans at 20.7. That is a spread of about 1.5 points, which still puts it in the pick'em band. Across our study of 163 showdown slates, pick'em spread games sent the MVP to the favorite 66 percent of the time.

So neither side is a rule. The same study found the perfect lineup took players from both sides in almost every slate, with a three to three or four to two split accounting for the clear majority. Building entirely on one team is the single most common way to lose a showdown you had right.
