The Jan 15 – Texans against Ravens game has the possibility to be a dramatic and intriguing game from beginning to end, or a severe letdown. The main reason: both squads have looked spectacular at times this year and completely terrible at others.

The Texans have a justification for their at times frustrating play, as the team has been beset by accidents all year. 1st, their all-pro wide acquire Andre Johnson went down with a hamstring injury. As if this blow to their offense wasn’t considerable enough, after that , they lost their starting qb, Matt Schaub. Then they went on to lose their second string qb, Matt Leingart, to injury. This set rookie T.J. Yates into the starting role. Despite the fact that Yates has competed wonderfully thus far, it’s yet to be determined how he can fare vs the vicious Ravens’ defense. The Texans fight through these accidents to a 10-6 record, but stumbled into the playoffs as they lost their last three matches of the year.
Sports betting
Despite the fact that the Ravens have looked extraordinary for the most part this year, they have come up short at baffling times. After defeating Houston 29-14 earlier this year, they lost their next game to woeful Jacksonville as they played some of the worst type of offensive football displayed by any team this year. Then, after defeating Pittsburgh 23-20, they lost their subsequent game to Seattle. So, whilst it would look Baltimore has the more healthy, more full team, that’s presuming the Baltimore who won those major matches this year shows up.
Odds makers are banking on that. Baltimore is a 7.5 fave at home. While the Texans have a gritty defense themselves, the question is still as to whether Houston’s rookie qb can play nicely under the pressure of a divisional playoff game in a inhospitable setting. As the Ravens are more skilled and competing at home, they’ve got the upper hand.
