Between the Lines

Three reasons to like the TEXANS (-2½) OVER THE REDSKINS

• Houston put up 257 yards rushing last week, while giving up only 44 yards rushing.

• The Redskins had trouble moving the ball last week, managing only 250 yards total offense.

• The Redskins gave up 380 yards total offense last week. If the Texans have that much offense, they will put up some points.

Three reasons to like the TITANS (-5) OVER THE STEELERS

• The Steelers offense was anemic last week, managing just 15 points.

• The Titans had 205 yards rushing and 140 yards passing. Their balance will cause the Steelers problems.

• The Titans scored 38 points last week, and the Steelers cannot keep up with that scoring pace.
