HOU @ CIN -6.5 (-110)
The line just keeps moving, I knew Cinci was the play early on in the week. Coming off an embarrassing loss and 4 int's for the "Burgundy BB Gun" this is a must win. Starting off 0-2 at home is not a recipe for making the playoffs. To boot Houston has 5 players in concussion protocol, apparently all unlikely to play. Call me crazy but if it wasn't for 3 of them being TE and severely depleting the Texans of that role, the only substantial loss would be LB Cushing IMO. I bet you one or two of them plays, although that might be a false assumption, it's not really up to the players.
I said that If this line goes over -6 that It might be worth a play, well I got my wish. I expect Watson to come out strong favouring Hopkins. The game-plan will likely be to give Miller a lot of touches though, which might not necessarily be bad. All I know for sure is that both teams have a lot to prove after week 1, especially the Bengals as they really have no good excuse; on the other hand, one can come up with a few as to why the Texans lost.
Any thoughts? It is a big swing...
