The Saturday afternoon matchup in the NFL Divisional playoff round will feature the Houston Texans and Baltimore Ravens. While the Ravens are heavy favorites in that game, the Texans have plenty of explosive offensive players that make putting a Texans vs Ravens Same Game Parlay interesting to do. Below you will find our NFL betting picks for this game in the form of a Same Game Parlay for this Divisional playoff tilt.
Texans vs Ravens Same Game Parlay
- Texans +9.5
- CJ Stroud Over 21.5 Pass Completions
- CJ Stroud Over 1.5 Passing TDs
- +525 ($10 to win $52.50)
The first leg of our Same Game Parlay for this contest in the AFC is for the Houston Texans to cover the spread as a 9.5-point underdog. Houston is unlikely to win this game on the road against the top-seed in the AFC. But they have more than enough firepower to keep this contest within single digits. In fact, that firepower has a lot to do with the other legs of this Texans vs Ravens SGP.
Texans quarterback CJ Stroud has had a huge rookie year for Houston. We expect that to continue to some extent, as we like Stroud to complete over 21.5 passes as the second leg of this three-leg SGP. Stroud has only gone over this number seven times this season. But one of those times was against these same Ravens, when he completed 30 of 44 pass attempts in Week 1.
We also expect Stroud to complete at least two touchdown passes as the final leg of this parlay. Stroud will likely have to put the ball in the air early and often to give the Texans a chance to hang with the Ravens. With weapons like Nico Collins and Dalton Schultz, Stroud should be able to find some openings in the end zone in what could be the final game of his stellar rookie campaign.
