The Houston Texans host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to kick off a Monday Night Football doubleheader in Week 2.
The Texans are still looking for their first touchdown of the season after a 14-9 loss in Week 1, while the Bucs are looking to build on a 23-20 victory in Atlanta.
Here are my best free Buccaneers vs. Texans anytime touchdown picks for Monday, September 15.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wideout Mike Evans led the team with eight targets last week, but it was rookie Emeka Egbuka who brought in two touchdown catches in the win in Atlanta. But with Chris Godwin still rehabbing his injury, Evans will once again be the focal point of the Bucs' offense on Monday night.
Evans had 11 touchdowns in just 14 games last season, and the Houston Texans' secondary is susceptible to top wide receivers.
Houston allowed a wide receiver to score in 13 of 17 regular-season games last year, and two of three games in the playoffs.
The veteran wide receiver is a great bet to haul in a touchdown at these +155 odds.
The Texans couldn't find the end zone in Week 1, but Nico Collins is looking to change that here on Monday Night Football. He had a team-high five targets last week for three catches and just 25 yards. However, a return home should do Collins and the Texans good.
Last season, Collins had a total of seven touchdown catches, but did the majority of his damage at home, with six coming at NRG Stadium. In fact, he had a touchdown catch in five of his six home games, with the lone outlier being the 31-2 loss to Baltimore in Week 17.
Collins is the bona fide WR1 in Houston and should get more targets. He had double-digit targets in five of 12 games last season, including the Week 2 home opener against Chicago, when he had a touchdown and 135 yards on eight catches.
Take the plus-money odds for the top receiver to score again here at home.
