How to watch Colts vs. TexansTexans vs. Colts date: Sunday, Oct. 27Texans vs. Colts time: 1 p.m. ETTexans vs. Colts TV channel: CBSĀ Texans vs. Colts streaming:Ā Paramount+Ā Week 8 NFL picks for Texans vs. ColtsBefore tuning into Sunday’s Texans vs. Colts game, you need to see the NFL picks from SportsLine’s advanced computer model. The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters Week 8 of the 2024 NFL season on an incredible 12-5Ā bettingĀ hot streak on top-ratedĀ NFL picksĀ this year. Longer term, it is on a 193-134 roll on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season and a 47-27 roll on top-rated NFL picks since Week 7 of 2022.
For Texans vs. Colts, the model is backing Houston to cover the spread at home. Indianapolis played a very competitive game when these teams faced each other in Week 1, and the Colts could get a boost in Week 8 with running backĀ Jonathan TaylorĀ (ankle) expected to play. That being said, quarterbackĀ Anthony Richardson hasn’t thrown a touchdown pass since Week 2 and the Colts need all the help they can get on offense in a hostile building.
Stroud had an uncharacteristic performance against the Packers in Week 7, completing 10-of-21 passes for just 86 yards with no touchdowns. He is expected to have a bounce-back game against Indy, even without Nico CollinsĀ (hamstring) in the receiving corps. Houston has also beaten the Colts in three of the last four meetings between these divisional rivals, a big reason why the model likes the Texans to cover in over 60% of simulations. You may be able toĀ stream the game here.
