Top Cappers News


This game has seen a significant line movement, with Houston opening as one-point favorites but now sitting as 3.5-point underdogs. However, this shift wasn’t driven by heavy betting action but rather by the announcement that Patrick Mahomes is expected to play despite his ankle injury. The real value lies in taking the Texans with more than a field goal, as Kansas City has developed a pattern of close wins rather than dominant performances. In their last five victories, four were decided by three points or fewer, and those wins came against weaker opponents like the Panthers, Raiders, and Broncos. With Mahomes likely limited in his mobility due to his ankle, his usual ability to extend plays and scramble for key conversions will be diminished. Instead, expect him to throw the ball away under pressure, cutting down on Kansas City's offensive effectiveness. Meanwhile, the Texans are still in the thick of the playoff hunt, and rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud has a fully healthy Nico Collins back in the lineup, as evidenced by their two touchdown connections last week. Houston’s offense is trending upward, and their urgency to solidify playoff positioning makes them a dangerous underdog. Kansas City may have an impressive record, but their offense hasn’t been blowing teams out. Look for this game to stay competitive, with Houston covering the spread in what could be another close contest. Take Houston ATS
