Making the playoffs and winning against NFL wagering online odds could be challenging this year as Houston has a tough schedule, despite the fact that the Texans have an intriguing offense headed by quarterback Matt Schaub and wide receiver Andre Johnson.
NFL betting odds for Houston begin with a very tough home starter as they sponsor the Indianapolis Colts.
In their regular year opener against Indianapolis, NFL betting online odds lists the Houston Texans as three-point home long shots. The Texans will get a shot to prove they’re more than a .500 team since they are going to be featured in prime time three times this year. They’re at Indianapolis on Monday Night Football later on in the year, at Philadelphia for a Thursday night game and home vs Baltimore for a Monday evening competition. Those are three challenging prime time matches.
The early part of the season does not look rosy for the Texans. They have three competitions against the NFC East in the 1st five weeks and also they confront the Colts. They will be tested by Peyton Manning, Donovan McNabb, Tony Romo and Eli Manning in the 1st month of the season, and the defense, especially the secondary, isn’t the strength for Houston. Their 1 break is at Oakland but because the Raiders look better with Jason Campbell at quarterback, winning there may not be easy. The Houston Texans sponsor the Chiefs in Week 6 just before their bye comes in Week 7.
Considering it gets brutally tough starting in Week 8, the Houston Texans better enjoy their bye week. They are at Indianapolis on Monday evening and then sponsor San Diego the following week. A two-game road trip at Jacksonville and also at the Jets is not going to be simple. The Texans go back home for Tennessee in Week 12 and then they have to go to Philadelphia for what might be a bad weather competition in Week 13 in early December. They host Baltimore on Monday evening in Week 14 after which they proceed to Tennessee the subsequent week. They go to Denver in Week 16 and competing in Denver in December is never a bargain. The Houston Texans finish off the season at home vs Jacksonville.
The Texans actually have a difficult agenda that could make it hard for them to win consistently against the NFL wagering odds this season. Furthermore, the Texans are previously a struggling franchise among NFL picks. From all four of the major pro sports leagues, they’re the only squad who has not played in the postseason. The only reason that is not cause for totally writing them off is that the team has only been part of the NFL since the 2002 season. The squad is continuously improving in the NFL odds nonetheless. They at last broke even in 2007 and 2008 after the first few years of losing seasons, then finally got their first ever winning season a year ago. The Texans re-signed head coach Gary Kubiak to an extension going through the 2012 season to reward him for his success in the NFL gambling.
