00:00The Houston Texans, who are one of the favorites to take that next step, they took that big
00:08step last year, their favorites to take that next step.
00:11There are some that feel that maybe they do it, Mike, there's some there feel they're
00:15a little bit overrated.
00:17And that certainly would be the indication in terms of the way FanDuel has set their
00:20line here because it's tight.
00:21I mean, Texans are just two and a half point favorites at the Colts.
00:24The Colts last year played a lot of close games, more or less hung around in a lot of
00:30the games that they played in.
00:31Anthony Richardson played well when the regular season began last year.
00:35He did not play well in the preseason this year.
00:37Total 49 and a half.
00:40What do you make of this one?
00:41Yeah, Anthony Richardson, I think, is everything in this game because what is he ready to do?
00:46He showed some flashes before he got hurt.
00:49And then the Colts had to muddle through with a variety of other quarterbacks last year.
00:54And they did really well in his absence.
00:57The question is, does he make them better?
00:59He certainly makes them different, but does he make them better?
01:03There are other places where this line has been really mobile.
01:07I saw one that lifted it from one and a half to open all the way to three and a half now,
01:13which says a lot about what people think about where the Colts were in the preseason.
01:18They will be playing at home.
01:21And it's not the toughest building in which to play as an opponent.
01:27Their fans are the friendliest in all of NFL football, to be honest with you, because I've
01:32been to games there.
01:34And they support their team, but they are not tough on the opposition.
01:39So I think that the Texans can go into Lucas Oil Stadium and feel pretty comfortable about
01:45having a chance to cover that number.
