Houston Texans vs. Baltimore Ravens Prediction
Houston blew out the Cleveland Browns in round one of the playoffs, led by a strong performance from rookie sensation CJ Stroud.
Stroud has been one of the best rookie quarterbacks the league has ever seen.
The future is bright in Houston as head coach DeMeco Ryans will likely win coach of the year.
Ryans, who played as a linebacker for the Texans, has brought a culture change to this franchise.
To pull off the upset, the Texans will have to play a near-perfect game on both sides of the ball.
Houston has the offensive firepower to compete, but they will face the best-scoring defense in football.
The Ravens allowed opponents just 16.5 points per game.
Baltimore is the favorite to represent the AFC.
The Ravens carry in the best playoff record of any team in football (13-4).
Lamar Jackson will win his second MVP this season, but Jackson would much rather get a Lombardi trophy than win MVP.
The knock of Jackson has been his playoff record.
Lamar is 1-3 in playoff games and is yet to reach the AFC Championship.
Baltimore is the top rushing team in football, averaging 156.5 rushing yards per game.
The Ravens will still be without Jackson's favorite target in the passing game, Mark Andrews.

Houston Texans vs. Baltimore Ravens Player Prop Pick
Stroud is playing as well as any quarterback in football right now.
The game script will favor this over.
While the Texans will cover this number, they will be playing the majority of this game from behind, specifically in the second half.
Lastly, the Ravens will be without a key player in the secondary, Marlon Humphrey.
Stroud has gone over this number eleven times this season.
