2022 likely won't be the Texans' year and in spite of their success in preseason, we will start to see that in their third preseason game. It will likely be starters vs starters for a good part of the game. Look for Trey Lance to come out like gangbusters. With a good run in practice and a brief but successful appearance in the preseason, the likely 49ers' heir-apparent and the 49ers' offense still have much to prove and the star-power to prove it with.

In spite of the wins, Mills and the Texans' offense has not looked steady or ready. They are not a match against the 49ers defense and will struggle to move the ball. The Texans' defense has looked solid vs rookies and 2nd stringers in the first two games, but this game will be more of front line conditions.

3.5 points is just not enough against the super-motivated 49ers. Take San Francisco to win and cover. 8*!
