Lions set to dominate Texans on the road: Experts predict victory and point spread cover

I am predicting that the Lions will secure a victory and cover the 3-point spread against the Texans while playing on the road. The Lions are currently in excellent form, with Jared Goff delivering impressive performances. They have triumphed in their past 5 games with an average winning margin of 20 points and a season point differential of +110, defeating significant teams such as the Packers, Vikings, and Cowboys. The Texans, on the other hand, have lost 2 of their last 3 games and their quarterback, Stroud, has been struggling. Additionally, Houston will be missing key players due to injuries. Despite their 6-3 record, the Texans have not performed as well as their statistics suggest, with only a +1 point differential.
