Houston Texans vs. Cincinnati Bengals Betting Picks
C.J. Stroud has been great. C.J. Stroud back to Ohio is going to be great. But, in the end, one of these teams is much better than the other. The Houston Texans and their season has been fun to follow. But after a slow start, the Bengals have turned into a Super Bowl contender out of the AFC.
Cincinnati, due to their slow start, knows they need to win, and win a bunch in that division. Look for the Bengals to play well, and come away with a relatively easy win in this one. The final betting pick for this game is the Cincinnati Bengals -8 over the Houston Texans.
