Why Is 0-3 Houston Favored? Jo Madden Breaks Down the Cowboys-Texans Trap Line

Published 1 day, 4 hours ago
Description

Houston is 0-3. Dallas is 1-2. Yet the Texans are favored by three points. That’s exactly the kind of NFL betting line that gets Jo Madden’s attention. In this Madden On The Line short, Jo Madden, Vice President of Sports Gaming Media at CrossCheck Media Inc., examines why sportsbooks are comfortable making winless Houston the favorite—and why bettors should look beyond the records before automatically taking Dallas. Houston has recovered from an 0-3 start before, but Jo cautions that history isn’t a handicap. The bigger questions are happening right now: Will Nico Collins be available? Can Houston’s defense pressure Dak Prescott behind a Dallas offensive line that has protected him well? And can the Texans score enough to keep pace if the Cowboys start putting points on the board? For Jo, this isn't a game to rush into. The line is telling bettors something—and the Nico Collins situation could determine whether Houston -3 makes sense. Betting lines and player availability can change.
