Raiders at Texans

Texans, at home, beat a beaten-up Oakland team. Now they travel and face a tough task. According to our Predict Report (scroll almost to the bottom), Patriots are the pick to win it all.

In our Power chart (scroll down to 2016 table), Patriots top the league at 1.76. They score 1.76 points for each point they allow, best by a big margin. Houston at 0.85 scores only 0.85 points for each 1 point allowed. They were somewhat fortunate to post a winning record (9-7).

The computer doesn't like the Texans chances, favoring the Patriots by 17 points. Looks like a mismatch.
