Win-and-In Texans Visit Chargers for Playoff-Shaping Rematch

Bookmakers make Houston a slight road favorite after an injury-filled week for both teams.

Overview

Houston can clinch a playoff berth with a win in Los Angeles or with an Indianapolis loss to Jacksonville.
The Texans’ Thursday injury report ruled OT Trent Brown out and listed LB Jamal Hill as a DNP, while RB Woody Marks, TE Dalton Schultz and others practiced fully.
Oddsmakers posted Houston around -1.5 on the road, with anytime-touchdown props listing Omarion Hampton at +145 and Nico Collins at +165.
Los Angeles has already secured a postseason berth but remains one game behind Denver in the AFC West with two games left.
This is a rematch of last season’s 32–12 wild-card game that featured four Justin Herbert interceptions, and the Chargers enter with offensive line concerns and LB Denzel Perryman suspended.
