Texans Have Business to Take Care of<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Houston Texans<\/strong> know they have business to take care of. No matter how crazy it is – the Texans could move into the massive tie for one game back of the wildcard spot with a win. The Texans are also coming off a win 31-21 at home over the Arizona Cardinals.<\/strong> That win snapped their three game losing streak with losses to the Seahawks, Colts and the Los Angeles Rams.<\/p>\n

DeShaun Watson<\/strong> tore his ACL in the loss to the Seahawks<\/strong><\/a>, and since then Tom Savage has took over as the starting quarterback. Watson left for the season with nearly 1,700 passing yards and 19 touchdowns. The passing game has suffered since Watson left, but they still rank 17th in the National Football League with more than 221 yards per game.<\/p>\n

Houston wins on the Road<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Houston Texans<\/strong> are tough enough to win this game on the road. The Baltimore Ravens have no real identity when it comes to offense. The Texans have Lamar Miller on the ground, and DeAndre Hopkins<\/strong> via the pass. The Houston defense has not been real tough this season, but they still have some of the best athletes on the field. Look for Houston to take care of the football, and move the ball, which is the way to beat the Ravens.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>Bet on the Houston Texans +7.5 over the Baltimore Ravens at MyBookie.<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
