The Texans are actually tied with the Indianapolis Colts as the top dogs of their division and had a fine outing against the Saints. In fact, New Orleans failed to score a touchdown for the first time in their past 155 outings. Texans’ quarterback Brian Hoyer threw for 207 yards by going 21 for 27 and threw a touchdown pass each to Cecil Shorts and Ryan Griffin. Houston is both 2-3 against the spread and straight up on the road this season and they could extend their winning streak if the defense comes up with another gem.

The front seven will need a good game since Buffalo’s running game is pretty good at 136.7 yards per outing. Offensively, if Hoyer can find wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins and Griffin the Texans will have a good chance. Buffalo’s secondary has been a bit weak this year by conceding 253.9 passing yards per game on average. Griffin gained 72 yards last week with four receptions, but Hopkins had a season-worst 36 yards on his five catches. However, he still leads his squad with 1,045 yards in the air along with nine touchdowns. Buffalo blew their second-half lead against the Chiefs last week by scoring just six points after that.

Quarterback Tyrod Taylor will need a good game to halt the Houston winning streak. He tossed three touchdown passes last week along with 291 yards. However, he can’t do it all on his own and will need some help from running back LeSean McCoy and wide receiver Sammy Watkins. Up to now, Watkins is leading the team with his 526 yards in the air. He had half a dozen receptions last week for 158 yards, which was his second-best output of the season. McCoy leads the side on the ground with 680 yards and three touchdowns. Buffalo is 2-5 against the spread against Houston and 3-4 straight up against them. They have their work cut out for them since the Texans’ defense concedes just 327.1 total yards per game.
