One game that immediately leaps out as a key matchup from the weekend’s slate is Indianapolis vs Houston. The Texans have been mooted as a potential breakthrough team and yet find themselves sitting on an 0-2 record through the opening fortnight. That’s despite having their first two games at home, and a loss at Indy, also standing at 0-2 despite some early buzz, could be catastrophic. The weird part is that Houston’s underlying numbers are pretty good, with QB C.J. Stroud having racked up more than 600 passing yards. Indy, meanwhile, has had the misfortune of facing the Ravens and Chiefs in their opening games and now at least have home advantage.
Also standing out in the schedule is the international game in Rio de Janeiro between Baltimore and Dallas. After a Week 1 win over Indy, the Ravens slipped up at home to New Orleans in dropping an 8-point final-quarter lead to lose 24-17. They haven’t had any problems moving the ball, but must execute better against a Cowboys team that has lost to the Giants but beaten Washington, and continues to be consistently inconsistent. Meanwhile Arizona goes to San Francisco to try and deliver the 49ers’ first L of the season. The home side has picked off the Super Bowl favorites LA Rams and bad football team Miami so far, and will be expected to defeat a Cardinals team that stands at 1-1 and lost to champions Seattle last time out.
In the Texans-Colts showdown, BetMGM makes the visitors a 2.5 point favorite. The Colts stand at +110 to beat the spread, and we’re going to take them to do precisely that. They have home advantage and with neither side having won a game so far, we’ll back the home team. For the game in Brazil meanwhile, we’re going to say the best choice is to pick the 4th quarter as the highest-scoring. Both teams are better on offense than defense and it should be a competitive game, so they’ll both be going for it late on, and it’s +150 that Q4 will see the most points scored.
As for the Cardinals-49ers, you can get +137 for “No” on both teams scoring two touchdowns. We think the Niners will do just that, but will stop the Cards from matching them. And you can put these predictions, or any others, into action by clicking our banners and links to head over to BetMGM and take advantage of their bonus code to get your first bet back up to $1500, so why wait?
