Official Texans vs. Titans Game Thread, 10/30/2022

[Arky]

I am in an NFL pickem ATS contest at a gambling website. 46 people (77.97%) are laying the points and taking the Titans, 13 people (22.03%) are taking the Texans - by far the most lopsided of the NFL picks this week.

----------------------------------------------------

Notes from Walterfootball.com late picks:

SATURDAY NOTES: Two major pieces of injury news for the Titans: First, their best player, (DT) Jeffery Simmons, failed to practice all week. Second, Ryan Tannehill may not play after being downgraded in practice on Friday. If Tannehill starts, I like the Texans to cover as long as we're getting +3 or more. If it's Malik Willis, I would almost consider the Titans because they'll have a more conservative game plan and just ram the ball down Houston's throat.

---------------------------------------------------

Texans are 3-3 ATS, Titans are 4-2 ATS.

---------------------------------------------------

Go Astros - can't go to Philly down 0-2......

[Arky]

Bullock misses a 48 yard FG for the Titans on their first possession.

Henry got loose for 41 but the Texans held them to a FG try.

11:27 left in the 1st qtr.

[Arky]

Mills throws and INT in Titan territory but the Texans hold. Titans punt and penalties back the Texans up to their own 6 yard line. Texans ball.

No score.

4:27 left in the 1st qtr

[Arky]

Texans punt and the Titans muff the punt! Texans recover at the Titan 42!

[Arky]

Texans go backwards and have to punt.

Titans fair catch at their 6.

1:22 left in the 1st qtr.

------------------------------------------------------------

Awesome. Nelson with the INT. Runs it back to the Titan 11.

Big opportunity for the Texans here....

[Arky]

Nothing working for the Texans and they can't get the TD.

Fairbairn good from 42.

Texans 3, Titan 0

10:40 left in the half.

-----------------------------------------------

Texans statistically horrible at this point.

Example:

Mills - 4/9, 11 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT, 12.0 rating.

[Arky]

Titans put a drive together and Henry scores from 29 yards out.

Titans 7, Texans 3

4:20 left in the half.

[Arky]

Texans got a Pierce 1st down but are getting whooped badly at the line of scrimmage. Both sides of the ball.

Now punting on 4th and 3 from their 41 with 2:25 left in the half.
