Free Sports Game Preview and Prediction: Indianapolis Colts vs. Houston Texans
Sunday, January 04, 2026 1:00 PM
Play: Point Spread: -10.5/100 Houston Texans
The Texans are hitting their stride at the right time and could clinch the AFC South with a win combined with a Jaguars loss to the Titans — unlikely, but expect an all-out effort from Houston. CJ Stroud struggled last week against the Chargers with two interceptions, and while it’s been a down year for him, he’s still competing hard. Houston boasts arguably the league’s best defense, allowing just 16.6 yards per play, a daunting challenge for Riley Leonard of the Colts, who is making his first career start and has completed 18 of 33 passes for 145 yards with two interceptions. With nothing to play for, it’s tough to see the Colts finding success against this dominant Houston front.
