Texans vs. Ravens Odds
Game Preview
The Texans wiped out the Titans in the previous event, 26-0, showing no mercy for the No.1 pick in this draft, QB Cam Ward. They allowed him only 108 passing yards and had 7 hits on Ward.
Meanwhile, Houston’s QB CJ Stroud had 233 passing yards for 2 touchdowns, and he ran for 11 more. Just to mention that the Texans allow the fewest number of points in the NFL, 12.8 per game.
So far, the Ravens have faced the Bills, Browns, Lions, and Chiefs. This is the hardest possible schedule this season. Additionally, Lamar Jackson injured his hamstring last weekend, which is currently the team’s biggest problem. And according to the latest info he will be out for this and probably a few more games.
Ravens’ defense is currently the worst in the NFL, allowing more than 33.2 points per game. Now that’s a lot, and we understand that Baltimore had tough rivals, but the numbers still reveal plenty of flaws in their defensive scheme.
Texans vs. Ravens Head to Head
Baltimore Ravens have won 13 of 15 games against the Texans. The most recent was last year, when they smashed their rivals in Houston, 31-2.
Texans vs. Ravens Predictions
Without Lamar, the Ravens have nothing to hope for, especially against the harsh and tough defense such as the Texans.
