How the prediction did
Predicted 23-17 (Texans vs Titans), final was 26-3. Right winner, with the margin off by 17. In DeMeco Ryans' first game calling the defense, Houston held Tennessee to 187 yards and three points and forced two turnovers. C.J. Stroud went 26 of 34. The Texans' first win leaves Tennessee as the AFC's only winless team.
Texans Titans Houston is the better team on both sides
Its defense held Indianapolis to 19 and its offense just scored 30 with Collins.
Tennessee's defense has kept games close
Twenty-four points allowed to Baltimore and 12 to the Giants.
Winless teams on the road
Houston's four losses include two by a field goal or less, so the margin is 6, not more.
A Medium road lean. The model trusts Houston's talent over Tennessee's home field.
