With the Philadelphia Eagles coming off a heartbreaking loss to the Arizona Cardinals, they can ill-afford to lose this week to the Houston Texans. The Texans meanwhile, defeated the Tennessee Titans last Sunday, putting a halt to their three-game losing streak. Both teams have a ton to play for in Week 9 of the NFL season, and here are five bold predictions for the upcoming matchup.

Predicting him to have one or two does not constitute as "bold." Expect a big game from the MVP-candidate.

Foster has rushed for over 100 yards in each of the last four games, for the first time in his career. Expect that trend to end in Week 9.
