Free Betting Pick: Houston Texans +1
The Colts are a team that has been playing decent, but the change at quarterback and the defense not really holding up their end of the deal has made it hard for the Colts to win. Look for the Texans to continue to rule the day with their short passing game on the year and that will help them in getting the win locked down on the road. Final Score, Houston Texans win but grab the points 27-23.
