Texans on Prime Time

Since 2002 Houston Texans are 5-22-2 (18.5%) ATS on TNF, SNF or MNF. This is the worst team on prime time television in the whole league. I'm on Bengals - 5 without any question and I don't give a damn how bad were Cincy in week 1 against Baltimore. Houston were disaster also against way worse opponent than Ravens

More numbers.

Home teams that lost previous game at home and scored 3 or 0 points (like Bengals) are .33-21-2 (61.1%) ATS since 2002. It seems such a bad performance teams somehow bounce back in the next week. So the spot for Bengals is not so bad with an addition to the amazing prime time Texans trend I post earlier in the thread.

Great points.  Throw in the Hurricane Harvey recovery factor for the Houston guys and it looks like this could be a double digit blowout.  I'll take the -6 all day.

you're right it is risky to play the Texans. the worst primetime team no question. i think they are 0-6 or 1-5 SU i can't remember since 2010 on thursdays.

All that is true Funk as is the fact that teams after playing Baltimore (Cincinnati) are 63-59 at home and are also 63-52 as a favorite but teams after playing Jacksonville (Houston) are 65-53 away and are 72-51 as dogs my point being stats are stats Funk and what counts is the score at the end of the game.

 I just personally think that these crippled Texans bring it tonight and their motivation and determination to win for their let down game last week and coupled in with the fact that neither team wants to be down 0-2 to start their season makes this a closer game than it may appear on paper and stat wise.

Good luck to you tonight funk

All of you made some good points.

But I just can't trust on banged up and historically bad prime time team leaded by suspect rookie QB against team that won 70% of its games at home last four seasons.

Exactly!! Stats only go so far!!
