Indianapolis Colts (6-4, 4th in AFC) @ Houston Texans (6-4, 6th in AFC)
Matt – They played on October 30th, and with each team at 6-4 and in a playoff spot, there’s a strong chance they play again in January. The Colts won a one-score game last month (30-23, in Indianapolis), but they are on the road here, and TY Hilton and Jacoby Brissett are both pretty banged up. An unhealhty TY might be the difference in fact, as young Thank You Hilton torches the Texans when he plays them: 82 receptions for 1519 yards and 10 touchdowns in the 15 career games that he’s logged vs. Houston
YES I know that Houston got absolutely shit-cranked by Baltimore last week. But these are the Indianapolis Colts. Not the Baltimore Colts. Ravens. Give me Deshaun Watson on a bounce-back game vs a hurting Colts team.
Matt’s Pick – Houston Texans
Fleet – Ex-Browns coaching battle of the week alert
In one corner, we’ve got current Texans defensive coordinator and former Browns head coach Romeo “The prankster with a heart” Crennel. In the other, Colts defensive coordinator and former Browns linebackers coach Matt “The moth” Eberflus. Being a self proclaimed “prankster with a heart”, I picked Romeo.
Fleet’s Pick – Cleveland Browns Houston Texans
