Ravens vs. Texans NFL Week 2 Betting Information, Picks and Odds

Texans Host Ravens for Sunday CBS Action

Lost in the memory of many gamblers is that the Ravens were 2019 AFC top seed. Baltimore’s playoff Pro Football betting loss to Tennessee was a shocker. However, it was not a portent of things to come. Baltimore steamrolled to a week one win over the Browns. Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was in his 2019 NFL most valuable player form. Baltimore remains the top AFC challenger to the Chiefs. Houston was not in playoff form in a week one loss at Kansas City. To be exact the Texans were exposed as nowhere near ready for prime time.

Baltimore Ravens at Houston Texans SBG Odds Overview

So far, the sports betting line has moved one point towards Baltimore. And it’s understandable as to why that is. Houston was putrid in their loss at the Chiefs. Counter to that was a powerful Ravens performance. Baltimore is certainly carrying a heavy road chalk price. Bargain hunters will give the Texans a hard look. Such as square money is flowing to the Ravens.

Baltimore Ravens Team Overview

Last week the Ravens destroyed the Browns 38-6 as 7-point home favorites. Under the total of 47 paid too. Jackson passed for 275 yards and three touchdowns. Also, did Jackson have a team-best 45 yards rushing? Cleveland committed three turnovers against the Ravens.

Houston Texans Team Overview

The first-week action saw the Texans lose at Kansas City 34-20 as 9.5-point dogs. Over a total of 53.5 snuck through. Kansas City jumped out to a 31-7 lead. And then called off the dogs. Houston blew a 24-0 playoff lead at KC last season. Hence, they are yet to live that down. Coach Bill O’Brien’s reactive offseason moves are unproven.
