00:03 Next game up, Pittsburgh and Houston.
00:05 One o'clock Eastern, 30 to six.
00:08 That was the Houston Texans on top of the Steelers.
00:12 Maybe the surprising outcome of the day
00:14 is the Texans go off as three point home underdogs.
00:19 41 and a half, 41 being the total.
00:21 Game stays under CJ Stroud.
00:25 He's doing things here in the Lone Star State.
00:28 Texans look solid today,
00:30 or maybe it was more the Steelers not looking good.
00:32 What'd you take away from Houston, Mark?
00:34 - Let me ask you a question, Drew.
00:36 Now, if I would've asked you this question three weeks ago,
00:39 you would've told me I was nuts.
00:40 Texans the best team in the AFC South?
00:43 Shake your head North and South, go ahead and do it.
00:49 Just shake your head North and South, yes.
00:51 Yes, the answer is yes.
00:52 - Let me think about it.
00:53 Let me think about it. - No, no, no, yes.
00:55 The answer is yes.
00:57 Through four weeks of football,
00:58 that's the best team in the AFC South.
00:59 I don't care what their record is.
01:00 Watch them play.
01:01 Watch them play.
01:04 They lost their opener to the Ravens,
01:07 certainly understand that, get that, right?
01:10 Rookie quarterback on the road, yeah, that's a tough one.
01:13 So losing to the Colts was a little bit unexpected,
01:19 to say the least,
01:21 but they went out and beat the Jaguars on the road,
01:24 and then they just smoked the Pittsburgh Steelers,
01:26 one of the better defenses in the league.
01:28 Then they're gonna go play the Falcons next week.
01:32 Tell me where you see,
01:33 tell me where you see it's not a coin flip game.
01:37 I'll name off their next six games.
01:40 Falcons, coin flip.
01:41 Saints at home, coin flip.
01:43 At Panthers, they'll probably win that one.
01:46 Versus Buccaneers, they're better than the Buccaneers.
01:48 At the Bengals.
01:49 Do the Bengals look like a team
01:50 that could beat anybody right now?
01:52 Then they get the Cardinals,
01:53 the Jaguars, and the Broncos at home.
01:55 They don't play a legitimate defense,
01:58 again, until they see the Jets
01:59 in the beginning of December.
02:00 - I should come back after though.
02:05 - The Saints are a legitimate defense.
02:06 I misspoke there.
02:08 That's a fact, they're a legitimate defense.
02:09 But other than that, look at their opponents.
02:12 Like, and they're gonna continue to be underdogs.
02:14 Now, I haven't seen the, let me look.
02:16 I was telling another friend of mine,
02:18 I don't even know if it's out there yet.
02:19 My guesstimate on the line was,
02:21 was Houston minus one and a half next week.
02:25 The Falcons are two and a half point favorites.
02:27 I'm absolutely taking the Texans next week.
02:30 - On the road, Atlanta with a tough travel
02:34 back from London.
02:35 That might not be a bad look at all.
02:38 - Absolutely taking the Texans next week as a dog.
