Texans vs. Chiefs: Week 6 NFL Picks & Game Predictions

When the Kansas City Chief sponsor the Houston Texans (1:00 P.M ET, CBS), they will trust that Patrick Mahomes fur is fine. He managed to play via a high ankle sprain last week but he was restricted. Last weeks loss to the Colts was the very first time that the Chiefs offense was held to under 26 points together with Mahomes. He says that his arm is nice so well have to take him at his word.
The Chiefs are hopeful that Tyreek Hill may play Sunday but theres been no confirmation as yet. A week, he did clinic and theres a probability that hell be ready to go from the Texans.
The significance for this crime of hill cant be understated even though theyve performed well in his absence. Sammy Watkins has been the Chiefs wide receiver in Hills lack but might not play due to a hamstring injury.
In Week 4, I climbing and had said that I thought Deshaun Watson appeared just as a top 10 quarterback. Last week against the Falconshe threw for 426 yards and five touchdowns. While he will have something to improve before he can be considered elite, hes well on his way. This game between the Texans and the Chiefs would be a battle of the top two quarterbacks in the 2017 draft (Mitch Trubisky has been picked #2 but that article is not about the Bears and their errors ).
In regards to throwing downfield this game promises to be a shootout with two of the most aggressive quarterbacks in the league. The Chiefs pass rush will need to set pressure since the Texans have the firepower to get a win on the street.
This line started at Chiefs -7.5 and the total at 55 depending on where you shop. All of the way has transferred down to Chiefs although the total has not seen much movement. The money coming in over the Texans is because of their offensive showing. So that Texans can place a lot of points in Kansas City up is valid the Chiefs defense isnt very good.
Add to this the worries over Mahomes high ankle sprain and theres been a lot of public money taking the points.
?? 4 of Texans the last 5 games on the street have gone Over
?? Texans really will be 1-4 SU the last 5 games against the Chiefs
?? 9 of the Chiefs past 13 games have gone Through
?? Chiefs are 12-4 SU at home in their final 16 games in the home
My selection for this game
Over 55 (-107) at 5Dimes
While the spread has moved into the Texans prefer, Id be more comfy at +7.5 compared to +4. While I do believe the Texans could win outright, one bad match from the Chiefs in the road doesnt allow me lose faith in them. They are among the greatest clubs in the league and might be getting among the most dangerous weapons in Tyreek Hill of the game back .
The main reason I lean towards the above is two quarterbacks that want to take chances playing with two defenses that provide points up. While going using the Over may seem to be a drama, calling this one a shootout appears inclined than saying one side gets the advantage over the other. Particularly when it concerns the Texans who never seem like the group that is exact same from 1 week to another. For all these reasons, my choice for this Week 6 match between the Texans and the Chiefs is Over 55.
