just gimmie your opinion on the game and make me feel better. the cardinals were 1 pt favorites and almost win by 17 so it is kinda relevant. Do you think it could be a blowout, simple poll.

I think the Texans should be slight favorites, hence my bet on them. The Rams blew out the Saints last week, too. Do I think the Texans CAN blow out the Saints? Yes. I also think the Saints can blow out the Texans. Any game that features two explosive, pass-oriented offenses can be lopsided either way.

If you're asking whether you should hedge your Saints bet by teasing Saints +14, no, I would not do that.
