The Indianapolis Colts (7-4) visit the Houston Texans (4-7) Sunday in Week 13 at NRG Stadium for a 1 p.m. ET kickoff. Here’s a look at the early betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.
The Colts were dominated at home as 3-point favorites, falling 45-26 to the AFC South rival Tennessee Titans. Indianapolis was outrushed 229-56 as Tennessee RB Derrick Henry carried the ball 27 times for 178 yards and 3 touchdowns. These teams entered the day tied atop the AFC South at 7-3, but obviously, the Titans’ win puts them in first at the moment.
Indianapolis’s betting records
- Against the spread: 6-5 ATS
- Over/Under: 7-4 O/U
Houston played its best game of the season on Thanksgiving and beat the brakes off of the Detroit Lions 41-25. QB Deshaun Watson and WR Will Fuller put on a show. Watson completed 17 of 25 passes for 318 yards and 4 touchdowns with no interceptions and an 89.8 QBR, and Fuller caught 2 TD passes and had 171 receiving yards on the day. The Texans’ decisive win as 3-point road favorites ended up being Matt Patricia’s last game as Detroit’s head coach who was fired Saturday.
Houston’s betting records
- Against the spread: 4-7
