Both squads have still had their fair share of struggles this year with the Bengals losing each game vs playoff quality squads and the Texans having considerable accidents to qbs Matt Schaub and Matt Leinart. Both qbs were lost for the year with their accidents and rookie T.J. Yates has taken control. Houston has also viewed big accidents to linebacker Mario Williams and wide receiver Andre Johnson. The two squads have already played one another throughout the regular season and the Texans made a last effort comeback attempt with a game winning touchdown pass caught by wide receiver Kevin Walters with mere seconds left on the clock.

Football betting

The Cincinnati Bengals outstanding run game with running backs Cedric Benson and Bernard Scott has been what’s worked for them this year, so they’re going to have to try and stick with that. If they can achieve this they might have the advantage and finally beat a playoff team and move forward past the first round for the first time in just over twenty years.

This will probably be a close one and could come down to the wire yet again. The Texans are slight favorites even with several accidents to a lot of key superstar players. The over/under for total total points for this particular game is 38. The line is established with the Houston Texans as three point favorites at their home field to the long shot Cincinnati Bengals.
