Texans have upset in store for unbeaten Indianapolis Colts
Game Time: Sunday, November 29, 2009 12:00 AM ET
The Colts' unbeaten 10-0 run comes to an end Sunday afternoon on Houston where Indianapolis will meet a very confident Texans team that is 8-4-1 ATS vs. Peyton and his pals.
Our Sunday NFL selection is on the Houston Texans at home plus the points over the Indianapolis Colts.
Certainly, the Colts are playing great football as they've opened the season with 10 straight wins. But they're generally not blowing out opponents, and have won most of their games by single-digits.
Indeed, Indy's last four wins have been by an average of 2.5 ppg. One of those victories was against this Houston team when the Colts defeated the Texans by a 20-17 score on the second Sunday of November.
So, Gary Kubiak's men know they can play with the Colts and won't be intimidated by Peyton Manning & Co. Houston has gone 8-4-1 ATS vs. Indy over the last 13 meetings, and fall into a super 61% ATS system on this Sunday.
What we want to do is play on any .360 (or better) home underdog off a straight-up loss as a home favorite. Last Monday, Houston was favored by four points at home, but was upset by Tennessee.
Look for the Texans to rebound here, and hand the Colts their first loss of the season. Take the points.
Free Pick: Texans +3 (-110)
