Best Bet
The Texans defence is the best unit remaining in the NFL playoffs and can propel Houston to s win in this game.
In last week’s Wild Card game against Pittsburgh they destroyed the Steelers, only allowing 175, and forcing two turnovers including one returned for a touchdown.
Excluding the Week 18 game where they rested their starters, they have not allowed more than 21 points since Week 10.
The Texans will need their offence to play better than it did last week, but quarterback CJ Stroud can hardly play any worse, following a game where he fumbled five times, was sacked three and threw a pick.
New England had the softest schedule of any team in the regular season and could only muster 16 points last week against the Chargers.
Getting more than a field goal, the Texans are an excellent bet.
Same Game Multi
The Texans are ill equipped to win a shoot out so the under is the bet that makes the most sense to pair with them.
Christian Kirk had a huge game with 144 yards last week and New England rank 25th in passing DVOA against slot receivers.
Patriots QB Drake Maye has had a great season but happy to back the NFL’s number one pass defence to hold him under his yards number.
Value Bet
With Nico Collins out, expect the Texans to ride the hot hand, meaning another high volume game for Christian Kirk.
