Texans at Colts: Game notes
The Texans enter on a two-game skid, including a 36-7 loss at the Chicago Bears in Week 14. The Texans, who were 1-point favorites, trailed 30-7 at the break and never threatened in the second half. Houston’s defense, which ranks 31st in total yards allowed per game (406.6), surrendered 410 yards to Chicago, which ranks 28th in total YPG (319.8). Houston QB Deshaun Watson threw for 219 yards with 1 TD and no interceptions, but he was sacked 6 times.The Colts offense was nearly perfect last week, scoring on 7 of its first 8 possessions in a 44-27 road win at the Las Vegas Raiders. Indy, which was a 2.5-point favorite, rushed for 212 yards led by rookie RB Jonathan Taylor‘s career-best 150 yards and 2 touchdowns. QB Philip Rivers threw for 244 yards and 2 TDs, both to WR T.Y. Hilton (5 receptions, 86 yards).The Colts, winners in four of their last five, have the same record as the AFC South-leading Tennessee Titans. The rivals split their two games this season, but the Titans win the tiebreaker based on a better division record at 4-1 to the Colts’ 2-2 mark.Indy, currently in the AFC’s No. 6 playoff seed, will next visit the Pittsburgh Steelers (11-2) and close at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars (1-12). The Titans host the Detroit Lions (5-8) Sunday, followed by road games at the Green Bay Packers (10-3) and Texans.The Texans have lost three of their last five games and have been eliminated from the playoff race.The Colts won 26-20 at the Texans in Week 13 as 3.5-point favorites but needed a late turnover to secure the victory. Houston faced 2nd-and-goal at the Colts’ 2-yard line with 1:28 to go, but a low snap led to a fumble, which LB Anthony Walker recovered. Rivers threw for 285 yards and 2 TDs, while Taylor ran for 91 yards and Hilton had 110 receiving yards and a TD in the win.The Colts are 4-1 straight up and 5-0 ATS in the last 5 games of the head-to-head series.

Prediction
Colts 27, Texans 20
Money line (?)
PASS. The Colts will prevail, but their -375 price isn’t worth the risk.
Against the spread (?)
HOUSTON +7.5 (-110) is the STRONGEST PLAY – 1.5 times your usual wager. The Colts are fighting for a division title, while the Texans are out of the playoff race, but this is a rivalry game. Eight of the last 10 games between the two rivals have been decided by 7 or fewer points.
Over/Under (?)
PASSING here, too. The lean is toward the Under 50.5, but there are just too many conflicting trends. The Over is 5-1 in Indy’s last 6 games inside the AFC South. The Under is 4-0 in Houston’s last 4 as an underdog. Indy is 4-1 O/U in its last 5 games; Houston is 1-4 O/U in its last 5.
The reason for the lean? The Under is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings between the two and 7-3 in the last 10.

After winning Super Bowl 54 and signing Patrick Mahomes to a massive contract extension during the offseason, the Kansas City Chiefs have met expectations in 2020 by winning 13 of their first 14 games. Now, they'll have a chance to clinch a first-round bye and home-field advantage in the AFC playoff bracket with a win or a Steelers loss or tie. The Chiefs are favored by 10.5 over the Falcons in the latest Week 16 NFL odds from William Hill Sportsbook.

Top NFL predictions for Week 16
One of the top Week 16 NFL picks the model recommends: The Texans cover as seven-point favorites at home against the Bengals. Both teams have had difficult seasons, with Houston entering Week 16 at 4-10 overall and the Bengals at 3-10-1. However, this line would likely be close to double-digits if Cincinnati had not shocked Pittsburgh in Week 15.
Despite the thrilling win, Cincinnati is still in a precarious situation at quarterback and will have a difficult time keeping pace with a Houston offense that ranks third in passing yardage. Deshaun Watson has had a stellar year with 4,134 yards and 27 touchdowns against just six interceptions while rushing for another 394 yards and three more scores.
Watson has thrown for at least 300 yards in eight of his last 11 starts, while Cincinnati ranks 25th in net yards per pass attempt allowed (6.8). That's why the model predicts that Watson produces nearly 350 yards of total offense overall and scores multiple touchdowns. Meanwhile, Houston's defense records three sacks and forces a pair of turnovers in the model's simulations, helping the Texans cover well over 50 percent of the time.
Another one of the top Week 16 NFL predictions from the model: The Los Angeles Chargers (-3) cover at home against the Denver Broncos. The Chargers have won each of their last two games, while Denver limps into Sunday's AFC West rivalry having lost five of its last seven.
Texans Jets Point Spread Week 9
Los Angeles is averaging 384.4 yards per game this season, which ranks seventh in the NFL. Quarterback Justin Herbert has been sensational in his rookie season and enters Sunday's showdown with 27 touchdown passes, which is tied with Baker Mayfield for the most passing touchdowns by a rookie in NFL history. Herbert also had a ton of success against the Broncos earlier this season, throwing for 278 yards and three touchdowns.
The line opened at Los Angeles -2.5, but has moved up half-a-point. The model is calling for Herbert to throw for over 270 yards and two scores, while running back Austin Ekeler racks up over 90 yards from scrimmage. Los Angeles covers the spread in well over 50 percent of simulations, while the over (48) has all the value.
How to make Week 16 NFL picks
The model has also made the call on every other game on the Week 16 NFL schedule and identified a Super Bowl contender that goes down hard. You can only get every pick for every game here.
