Browns Favored -2.5 Over Texans in Week 16 Matchup
The Cleveland Browns (9-5) are considered favorites -2.5 according to the oddsmakers ahead of their game against the Houston Texans (8-6) on December 24, 2023, starting at 1:00 PM ET.
The Browns have won two straight games, including a 27-13 victory over the Baltimore Ravens in their last outing. The Texans, meanwhile, have lost two of their last three games, including a 24-21 defeat to the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Browns have a strong defense that ranks fourth in the NFL in points allowed per game (18.7). They also have a balanced offense that is led by quarterback Deshaun Watson and running back Nick Chubb.
The Texans have a young and talented offense led by quarterback C.J. Stroud, but they have struggled to protect him this season. The Browns' defense should be able to put pressure on Stroud and force him into making mistakes.
The Browns are the better team on paper, and they should be able to win this game. The Texans will need to play their best game of the season to have a chance at an upset.
