Ravens -3, total 45.5
The Ravens are favored to win this game as they have better talent but this is a last gasp for Houston because they are at home. It could turn into a high scoring game as the Ravens do have some offensive talent and the Houston defense is terrible. The Ravens have averaged just 13.5 points the past two games but they averaged 28.7 the previous six. They should get back on track this week. The Houston secondary is awful so look for quarterback Joe Flacco to have a big game on Monday night.
Houston Still Alive
In most seasons the Texans would be out of it at 5-7 but in the AFC South they are still alive. The Texans have lost five of their last six though and the defense is a sieve. They gave up 416 yards last week against the Eagles. Houston can score points with the leading rusher in the NFL in Arian Foster and the passing combination of Matt Schaub to Andre Johnson.
