Texans vs 49ers Prediction
This line is rather surprising. The Texans continue to underachieve offensively, and now there’s a chance they could be without Collins due to a concussion. The Texans have offensive line issues and even without Warner, the 49ers defense is still one of the best in the league and seventh in scoring. The 49ers also have the best passing offense in the league and a difference maker in McCaffrey.
The Texans have less time to prepare for this game as well, and are 2-4 ATS on the season. The 49ers have outright won 2 of the 3 games this season where they’ve been an underdog. Give me the points.
