Houston at Minnesota

The Texans have been at home the entire month of October, not having taken to the road since September 28th. What that has done is allowed everyone to forget just how bad a road team the Texans have been. They are 11-3 in their last 14 at home, but road has treated them completely different. Houston is just 1-9 SU in their last 10 on the road, having been outscored 307-175! They have not produced more than 24 points in any of their last 10 on the road, while allowing less than 26 just once! Minnesota comes in off a bye after a wild shootout vs. Chicago. The 48 points allowed was certainly a departure from what Minnesota is normally about. They are flying under the radar now, as they allowed four defensive-special teams TDs and six turnovers their last two games. This team is better than they appear and as a result, they are not getting the look from the oddsmakers they should here. This one should be a TD plus win for the Vikes.
