Seahawks vs Texans Prediction
Seattle was able to get a very nice road victory against Jacksonville last week and they have won four of their last five games. The Seahawks have been a solid offensive team to start this season, but they will face a good Houston defense here. The Texans have won two games in a row and they have scored 70 points in those two victories. Houston is coming off of a bye week, so they should be well rested and full of confidence. I do think the Houston defense will keep the Texans in the game, but I need to see more consistent play from Stroud before backing them. Take Seattle to pull away for the cover in the second half.
