Cincinnati Bengals +4.5 at Houston Texans
People didn’t have faith in the Texans all season, and that paid off at the end of the year with Houston losing three of their last four games and having to play this round. Cincinnati has gone the other way winning seven of their last eight games needing to continue to win to get into the payoffs. Houston is very banged up on defense, outside of J.J. Watt, already without Brian Cushing. Linebacker Brooks Reed is very questionable to play, and Tim Dobbins is also banged up and didn’t practice Wednesday. Because of this, I don’t think Houston’s defense is quite as good as they appear on paper. The real difference between these two teams appears to be the divisions with Houston going 5-1 against the weak South and Cincinnati going 3-3 against the stronger North. I think this is a field goal game either way, which automatically leads me to take the points.
Baltimore Ravens vs. Indianapolis Colts Under 47 Points
The Under occurs in 58.2 percent of simulations averaging 44 points per. This game will be outdoors which should limit some of what the Colts do. The Ravens will also have some emotion of their own to counter the vibes for Indy with the retirement of Ray Lewis.
