Houston Texans at Las Vegas Raiders 10/23/22 - NFL Picks & Predictions

On Sunday, the Houston Texans visit Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada to play the Las Vegas Raiders. Houston is 1-3-1 after defeating the Jacksonville Jaguars 13-6, a week ago this past Sunday and has a bye in Week 6. In Houston's victory over Jacksonville, the Texans were held to only 248 yards of total offense but took advantage of two turnovers by Jacksonville to pull out a low-scoring victory.

Houston quarterback Davis Mills has passed for 1,048 yards with five touchdowns and four interceptions. The leading rusher is Dameon Pierce with 412 yards and three touchdowns, while the leading receiver is Nico Collins with 272 yards. On defense, safety Johnathan Owens is the leading tackler with 46. Houston has 11 quarterback sacks and six interceptions.

Las Vegas is 1-4 and was defeated by the Kansas City Chiefs 30-29 in Week 5 and the Raiders also had a bye in Week 6. In the loss to Kansas City, Las Vegas gained 378 yards of total offense and allowed Kansas City 368 yards of total offense.

On defense, linebacker Divine Deablo is the leading tackler with 48. Las Vegas has eight quarterback sacks and two interceptions. 

Las Vegas will return from a bye and pick up the victory at home on Sunday, but Houston will play well enough to cover the number. The visitor (HOU) has covered the number in five of the last seven played between the two. Las Vegas has failed to cover the number in each of his last four when playing against an opponent with a losing record and this season the Raiders are 2-3 ATS, while Houston is 3-1-1 ATS. Final Score Prediction, Las Vegas Raiders win but fall short ATS 27-23.
