NFL Tips - Texans @ Colts - Week 3 2026

There are few teams that present as many under angles as the Houston Texans and that is the main play when they travel to Indianapolis to meet their division rivals.

Under 42.5

$1.92

When AFC South rivals Houston and Indianapolis met in this corresponding clash last year the total ended on 36 and something similar is forecast this week with the under looking a quality bet.

The under hits at 69% when there is a home underdog in the opening three weeks dating back to 2021.

The big push for the under here is the Texans.

The under is 36-22-1 over the course of Demeco Ryans’ head coaching career. The under is 24-11 when CJ Stroud plays indoors. The under is 16-8 when the Texans play a division game and is 17-2 when they are off a non-cover.

The under is the best total of Week 3.


Same Game Multi

Josh Downs Over 51.5 Receiving Yards/David Montgomery Over 9.5 Receiving Yards/Jonathan Taylor Over 77.5 Rush Yards

$6.15

Josh Downs is a full time WR1 now with snap counts of 89% and 83% and off a nine-target game looks an excellent bet to go over his receiving total.

David Montgomery has double digit receiving yards in both games since moving to the Texans.

Jonathan Taylor has topped 90 yards rushing in both games this year while he hit 85 rushing yards when playing the Texans at home last year.


Value Bet

Laquon Treadwell
To Score A Touchdown
Bet Now
$6.00

The loss of deep threat Alec Pierce should see Laquon Treadwell step up and fill the deep threat role. Treadwell had a big – if controversial – catch in overtime against the Chiefs while his snap count jumped from 35% in Week 1 to 74% in Week 2, behind only Josh Downs. He will get a lot of time on the field and will get looks.
