The NFL preseason success story that is the Baltimore Ravens is well documented. But here’s a sentence you probably thought you’d never hear – the Houston Texans are becoming an NFL Preseason juggernaut.
The same Texans who were 3-13-1 last season won as many games in the preseason, going 3-0. With a 20-9 triumph over the New England Patriots in Week 1, Houston extended the club’s preseason unbeaten streak to four games. The Texans are 6-1 straight up in their last seven on the NFL Preseason schedule and are 5-point home favorites over the Miami Dolphins in Week 2.
Meanwhile, the Ravens scraped past the reigning NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles 20-19 to extend their amazing NFL Preseason win streak to 24 games. They go into Washington this week to face the Commanders as the 3.5-point road chalk.
Let’s take a look through all of the Week 2 NFL Preseason odds and pick out the best bets to be making.

Ravens vs Commanders Predictions
Resting all of their regulars, Baltimore started Josh Johnson at quarterback against the Eagles. The Ravens were down 13-7. Then Justin Tucker drilled a 60-yard field goal on the last play of the first half and the rally was on. Baltimore scored the first 10 points during the second half and hung on for yet another NFL Preseason win.

That was big news for one BetMGM bettor who needed a Ravens victory to clinch a 12-game parlay ticket worth $93,170.44. FanDuel is offering a Ravens preseason prop. You can bet Baltimore to go 3-0 in the NFL Preseason at odds of +100. If you think the Ravens will finally be tasting defeat, then wager on that outcome at a betting line of -128.
Beating the Commanders looks like a safe bet. During their preseason win streak, the Ravens are 5-0 straight up against them. That includes a 2-0 SU and against the spread record at Washington.
Ravens vs Commanders Pick: Ravens -3.5 (-110)
Dolphins vs Texans Pick
CJ Stroud may be the QB of the future for the Texans, but Davis Mills showed he can still be a presence. Stroud was just 2-of-4 for 13 yards in his NFL Preseason debut. Last year’s starter Mills came off the bench and went 9-of-12 for 99 yards and a TD.
Don’t count CJ Stroud out just yet 😏

The defense was the real story for the Texans. They held the Patriots to 164 yards and 3-for-12 on third-down conversion, while making three sacks.
Miami coach Mike McDaniel sat out 31 veterans in the Dolphins’ 19-3 Week 1 loss to Atlanta, so it would appear he’s more interested in determining which players will be filling out the bottom of his roster.
Dolphins vs Texans Pick: Houston Texans -5 (-110)
