Cincinnati Bengals at Houston Texans — prediction and win probability
Houston Texans, 69% to win. We project them by 6.4.
The numbers
| Our pick | Houston Texans |
| Chance they win | 69% |
| Our projected spread (Houston Texans) | -6.4 |
| Projected total | 48.9 |
The win probability is the graded call, capped at 90% — the edge of the calibration table our model was validated on. The projected spread and total come from the same model. A spread reads here as it does anywhere else: -6 means we project that side to win by six. These are our numbers, not a market’s — the market consensus is shown separately, and labelled, wherever we have it.
Market average
| Spread (Houston Texans) | -2.5 |
| Total | 45.5 |
The market’s numbers, not ours: an average across the books our data provider covers, for context beside the projections above. We don’t guarantee its accuracy or timeliness, and nothing here is a price you can transact at.
