A ridiculous injury situation for Houston.
They could beat a weak Indy team but not today vs a much stronger team, & the Browns played a much tougher schedule.

I like the over also
But on the 24 points per game the Browns give up on the road, if you dig a little deeper it is probably inflated
They gave up 31 in week 18 playing for nothing and with a lot of players sitting out
The week 16 game vs these Texans they gave up 22 BUT with just over 6 minutes left in the game they had only given up 7 and the Texans scored a couple of garbage time TDs
Also gave up 16 points in the last 4 minutes at the Rams, 7 of which came after an INT gave the Rams a short field.
This defense is good. Better at home, yes. But still very good
