Game Preview:
The Houston Texans head to Dallas to take on what I think is the best defense in the NFL. The Texans recently visited Santa at Sears and asked him for a new Offensive Line and QB, I guess we will see if he can deliver before the 25th!
The Cowboys are rolling teams and covering spreads while doing it, 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games. This is an aggressive spread however the Cowboys had no problem with their -10.5 spread last week on the Colts. Davis Mills is back at QB this week for the Texans and he has shown some promise in his starts, unfortunately for him, he has no protection or anyone to throw to him.
Since returning, Dak has played well but the Cowboy’s defense and their strong backfield between Pollard and Elliott have propelled this team to where they are. However, as bad as the Texans are, they have only lost by 17 once this season, which was in week 7 against Vegas. The Cowboys are going to win this game but I’m taking the risk with HOU and taking them with the points. We are also laying the over in this game because the Cowboys can put up 30+ points and the Texans are great at garbage points.
PICKS: HOU +17.5 & o44
Bonus Props
Davis Mills (HOU) – Over 188.5 Passing Yards (-113)
