Browns vs Texans Same Game Parlay
- Over 44.5
- Dalton Schultz Over 42.5 Receiving Yards
- CJ Stroud Over 242.5 Passing Yards
- +325 ($10 to win $32.5)
The first leg of our Browns vs Texans Same Game Parlay is for this game to go over its total of 44.5 points. These teams combined for over 50 points in their meeting during the regular season this year and that was with Davis Mills playing quarterback for the Texans instead of CJ Stroud, who was out due to a concussion. With Stroud back on the field for this game, we should see plenty of scoring between these two teams to kick off the postseason.
Speaking of Stroud, the next leg of our parlay is for him to go over his passing yardage total of 242.5 yards. Stroud went over this number in 10 of his 15 games for the Texans during the regular season. And while the defense of the Browns has a reputation of being one of the best in the NFL, they have struggled on the road, giving up nearly 30 points per game over their last five road games. Stroud should do just fine in his first ever playoff start.
Along those same lines, expect Dalton Schultz to go over his receiving yardage total for the Texans in this matchup. Schultz was targeted 11 times against the Browns the last time these teams met, catching eight passes for 61 yards. He will benefit from better quarterback play in this game with Stroud back under center and should continue to see targets for a second time against Cleveland.
