This is a 10* NON-CONF. GOM on the Texans.

Is Philadelphia the better team?

Of course.

Am I suggesting that Houston is going to win this contest outright?

Of course not.

But this is just too many points to be giving up on the road. Houston won't just roll over, and Davis Mills will push the pace in the second half and put his team in position to score some points.

Philadelphia crushed the Steelers 35-13 at home last weekend. Next weekend they have a home Monday night game against Washington. I say the Eagles go up early, and then they start preparing for the following week.

Houston's off a 17-10 defeat at home to Tennessee last weekend, but it's still covered in three of its last four games.

I like the TEXANS here, so grab as many points as you can.

Good luck, NP
