ROGERS' TNF VERY HOT PROSPECT! 9-4 L2 WEEKS!
(NFL) Philadelphia vs. Houston,
Point Spread: -14.00 | -101.00 Philadelphia (Away)
Result: Loss
The Eagles, 3rd in points scored this year, have beaten 4 teams by 12 or more points this season. The Texans have lost just once by more than Thursday's total points, but have yet to face a top 10 defense, let alone a team of the caliber of the Eagles. The Raiders and the Chargers put up 30+ points against Houston, but neither team has as complete an offense as the Eagles. Philadelphia does give up more rush yards and yards per attempt lately, their weakest spot on defense, but the Texans don't really have a run game. The Texans could have an opportunity to pressure Hurts as they are 19th and improving in sacks, but Hurts and Co. could just run the ball down the Texans' throats all evening if they wanted. the Texans gave up a whopping 314 rushing yards last week, and stand last in rush yards. The Eagles, really, should be able to pass or run at will, and will likely have a huge time of possession advantage. As long as they show up to play, the Eagles should win and cover under the light on TNF.
