Saints at Texans Betting Picks, Best Bets and Prediction Week 6

The bookies seem to think that this will be a close one, which is hard to argue, with the Saints coming into this game as a 1 ½ point favorite. The total is set at 42 ½. | NFL Odds, American Football NFL Lines | MyBookie Sportsbook

More than a month into the season, we are seeing that the majority of the division races are still pretty tight. With that in mind, a winning streak of any kind can put a team in control of a division they are currently trailing in, which is what the Saints are looking at right now as they try to climb their way to the top of the NFC South. This weekend, they will head to Houston to face a Texans team coming into Week 6 sitting a game below .500 but still within reach of the Jaguars at the top. This is a huge game for both teams, even this early in the season, as a win could really help the cause of both teams in their respective division races.

Why bet on the New Orleans Saints

The Saints have found some new life this season with Derek Carr running the offense, and as long as he can stay healthy, they could be in the hunt for what is a very tight division at the moment. They did have a rough couple of weeks after Carr tried to play through an injury, but they seemed to get back on track in Week 5 with a total blowout of the New England Patriots, winning that one 34-0. The Saints have been decent on the road in the early going, winning 2 of their 3 games away from home. They have been better yet in games against teams from the AFC South, winning 6 of the last 7 of those meetings. They are also 15-5 SU in their last 20 games played in the month of October. They are, though, just 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 overall, while their last 8 road games have all gone UNDER.

Why bet on the Houston Texans

Yes, he is only 5 games into his NFL career, but you have to say that CJ Stroud already looks to be a very good pick for the Houston Texans. He has given them a chance to win every single week and appears to be avoiding many of the mistakes that tend to plague young QBs coming into the league. It is, though, a very long season, so we will see if he can continue to deliver the goods. The Texans come into this one with a 2-3 record, and while you might think that home field is an advantage, they have struggled, winning just 1 of their last 9 games in their own building. That said, the Texans have been a great pick against the spread, covering in 7 of their last 10 games. The UNDER has hit in 4 of their last 5 versus teams from the NFC South.

Saints vs Texans Expert Pick and Series Prediction

This is an interesting game for sure, and it’s one that I think might prove to be a bit of a defensive battle, which is why I am leaning toward the UNDER, I also like the Saints to win and cover on the road.
