DIV. GAME OF THE YEAR *43-12 RECORD!* (EARLY)
(NFL) Titans (TEN) vs. Texans (HOU),
Point Spread: 8.00 | -110.00 Titans (TEN) (Away)
Result: Win
At 1:00pm ET, my AFC South Game Of The Year is on Tennessee. The Texans are a solid football team but there are still opportunities to go against them. I won with the Jets when they defeated the Texans on Halloween and this is another strong spot to play against. Houston plays on a short week after defeating instate rival Dallas on Monday Night football. These teams tend to play close games. The Texans did handle the Titans easily at the end of last season but the previous 7 meetings were all decided by single digits. In 11 games this season, Monday's win over the Cowboys marked only the 2nd time that Houston has beaten a team by more than 6 points. Playing in the AFC South, where every other team is below .500, the Texans don't have any urgency to win. They will face a Titans team which ranks 1st in the AFC (2nd in NFL) in terms of yards allowed per game and which is first in pass defense. This is just Tennessee's 2nd divisional game. The first was decided by a field goal and this one will also be close. Take the points.
