Based on their records, the Texans would be the odds on favorite to win this game. The Texans at game time begin this contest standing at 2-1 with 1 of their wins in the Houston Reliant Stadium. The Raiders need improvement with a current record of 1-2.
Fortunately, each week in the NFL provides exciting new matchups. No team is the same from week to week and that is why every game is interesting.
Now, let's take a look at each team and see how they compare with others in the NFL statistically.
The Texans rank 8th overall in the NFL in passing. I have to remember to re-think Houston. Over the years, they have been so inconsequential that it is still difficult to envision them as a contender. They have tremendous passing and running numbers ranked 8th and 5th respectively. Their defense remains a conundrum. They are second in run defense and worst in the league in pass defense. They will need to tighten up their pass defense to continue a promising season. Fortunately, they play the Raiders this week.
As for the other team, we have the Raiders. The Raiders are 1-2 with their only win being a close one against the St. Louis Rams, who at that point had lost about 100 games in a row. Unfortunately, the Raiders strength is the running game and Houston excels at stopping the running game.
This game holds interest for me because I want to see if Houston is for real. Their notable win this year has come against the Colts. Can they beat the beaten down Raiders? You'll just have to watch. Again, if you can't watch it on TV, go to the following link to catch the came online:
