Buffalo Bills vs Houston Texans Prediction

The Bills are going to be favored because they’ve been the more trustworthy team overall, but they’ve shown some chinks in the armor lately with losses in 3 of their last 6 games. You can move the ball against this Bills defense, which has allowed 30-plus points in back-to-back games. The Texans are starting to finish games, and they’re led by arguably the best defense in the league. Short week, home field, this is a lot of points to throw in the Texans direction. The Texans have covered 5 of their last 8 home games as an underdog, and 4 of those covers were outright wins. Give me the points.
