Houston will be a much better offense, and they have various weapons to attack in different ways. The Bear's offense was underwhelming, and we should expect Williams to take some time to settle in. Texans (1-0) enter the Week 2 clash riding the momentum of a strong offensive performance. Stroud, who completed 20 of 28 passes for 291 yards in Week 1, showcased his command of the offense, connecting with wide receiver Nico Collins (six catches for 117 yards) and new additions Stefon Diggs and Joe Mixon. Mixon rushed for 159 yards and was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week, while Diggs caught two touchdowns in the win over Indianapolis. Given DeMeco Ryan is one of the sharpest defensive minds in the game, he will get Houston's defense right while also befuddling Williams under center. Houston shouldn't have any issues finding the end zone. The Bears need to finish drives to compete and while they will improve, they still seem to be a touchdown or two behind what the Texans can do with their core. Expect Houston to build off being at home too in a resounding victory.
Houston -5 1/2 [Buying the Hook] Money Line Hedge -$258 X 10 Press]
Cleveland has a ton of injuries on both sides of the ball. They're hitting the road after the offense could barely gain yards at home. That same group had multiple giveaways too. Jacksonville's defense was decent against a tough offense, so this matchup should work in their favor. The Browns can't throw the ball like Miami. The Browns on the other hand were a disaster from start to finish in week 1, getting walloped at home, a place that they went 8-1 last season. With Jacksonville having a notoriously strong fan base at home and Clevland's woes away from their home stadium last season, the Jags should easily be able to cover a 2 1/2 -point spread easy.
