Premium Pick

The Eagles won in a major upset over the Rams on Sunday night, but the Eagles still are only 5-9 ATS overall and 0-4 ATS when following an ATS win this season. Houston has won 10 of its last 11 games and managed to beat the Jets last week even though it struggled when running the ball. Deshaun Watson did enough to get a win, completing 22-of-28 for 294 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions. The Texans are #14 in the NFL, allowing 346.6 total yards per game and fourth in rushing defense (88.3 yards per game). The Eagles are #27 in yards allowed and second-to-last in pass defense. Each team has gone UNDER in eight of its 14 games and the UNDER is 8-1-1 in Houston's last 10 games in Week 16. The Texans are 23-9 UNDER their last 32 December games and 8-3 UNDER their last 11 after a win. Philly has stayed UNDER in six of its last seven home contests. The Eagles have covered the spread just once its last six home games and they are 1-5 ATS when following a win. Houston started the season 0-3, but can clinch a spot in the AFC playoffs with a win on Sunday. Play the Texans and the UNDER.
