What the data says

The Houston Texans don't have a strong public-vs-money pattern this season. Across the 7 games we've tracked, the average bet percentage on Houston Texans is 45.6% and the average money percentage is 46.9%. Those are middle-of-the-pack numbers — bettors are split, dollars follow the bet count, and the line generally reflects the matchup rather than the public lean.

With 7 games on the board, the data is starting to mean something — and what it means is that Houston Texans aren't a high-conviction fade or follow play. There's no consistent edge in either direction.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Houston Texans' ATS record this season?

The Houston Texans are 2-5 against the spread in the games where we have a closing split. That's the number that matters for a bettor — a team can win outright every week and still lose money for the people backing it at the number.

How do the Houston Texans do against the spread when they're a public favorite?

When 60% or more of spread tickets land on the Houston Texans, they're 1-0 ATS this season. Books shade lines toward the side they know the public wants, so heavily backed teams as a group have historically covered a little under half the time — which is why this number gets its own row.

Where does this NFL team betting data come from?

From publicly reported sportsbook handle, captured on a sub-hourly cadence for every NFL game from the moment a line is posted. The team figures on this page use each game's closing snapshot — the last read before kickoff — so every number reflects what a bettor could actually have known.

Why do the games tracked not match the Houston Texans' full schedule?

A game counts only when it has a final score, a closing spread and a published split. Early in the season that is every game; a game the source never listed, or one whose splits were not captured before kickoff, is left out rather than guessed at.

What is the record for fading the Houston Texans when the public is on them?

0-1 ATS this season — the mirror of their public-favorite record, because the fade covers exactly when the public side doesn't. We show it as a record rather than a recommendation; a handful of games is not a pattern, and the line already builds in some of the public lean.

What is a public favorite? A public favorite is the side drawing 60% or more of the betting tickets on a given game. When the money percentage trails the bet percentage on that side, it's a signal that smaller, casual bets are stacking up there — and the larger bets are on the other side. See our methodology →.
