Eagles heavily favored to beat Texans on ‘Thursday Night Football’

, the Philadelphia Eagles (-13.5) have a quick turnaround entering Week 9. The Birds will be in Texas to face the Houston Texans (+13.5) on Thursday Night Football.

As one might expect, the Eagles are heavily favored this matchup. DraftKings Sportsbook has them as 13.5-point road favorites.

To put that number into context, the Texans would be three-point home favorites if they were viewed as an equal team to the Eagles.

Of course, that isn’t the case. The Eagles are 7-0. The Texans are 1-5-1.

— but they are arguably the worst team in the league.
