Prediction
The Bears got extremely lucky in beating Tennessee in Week 1. They trailed 17-3 at half and used a punt block TD return and a pick-six to get by the Titans. Caleb Williams was awful in his debut and now plays his first road game. The Texans are going to make him look like a rookie. Houston’s offense is very dangerous with Stroud, Diggs and now Joe Mixon, who had a sensational debut last week with his new team. This could get ugly early. I don’t see how the Texans don’t win by double-digits.
Pick: Texans -6.5
