The Houston Texans are finally coming to life after years of dormancy, winning games and actually being fun in the process of doing so.
After going all of last season without being favored to win a single game, while also facing spreads of at least seven points in more than half their games, they’ve already been favored in three of eight games this season and eclipsed their 2022 win total.
However, Week 10 will be a true measure of just how far the Texans have come, because a trip to play at the Cincinnati Bengals has them back in the old familiar space of being big underdogs. I, for one, believe they’ll pass the test, even if they don’t win.
Last season, they were 6-3 against spreads of seven points or more. With a much better team now, I expect them to play the Bengals just as close. Here’s a look at that game and a couple more lines I disagree with in Week 10, with odds from BetMGM.
