Houston Texans vs Detroit Lions Preview
Detroit and Houston kick off this year’s Thanksgiving slate in a game that holds very little importance outside of bragging rights.
The Lions were shutout by the Panthers last week in a game that may have sealed Matt Patricia’s fate at the helm, while the Texans walked away with their third win of the season on another flawless performance from Deshaun Watson against the Patriots.
Houston has opened as the -3 favourites ahead of their trip to Detroit and it’s not hard to see why.
Considering the offensive line he’s playing behind and the total lack of weapons he has to throw to, Watson has been phenomenal in what would probably be an MVP-like season if the Texans actually had a winning record.
The Lions have plenty of talent to roll right over Houston, but their complete lack of composure and, for lack of a better word, coaching, makes them a very difficult side to trust.
Defensively these two sides are among the worst in the league ranking Top 10 in total yards allowed.
It’s worth noting that 10 of Detroit’s last 11 home games at Ford Field have gone Over the Total, so with the Texans finding some form, the Winner/Over Double might be the play here.
