NFL Playoff Free Pick: Take Houston. Usually bettors will want to stay away from double-digit point spreads but the Dolphins will have a hard time moving the ball on Sunday. Their defense may keep Houston at bay in the first half but eventually Miami will get worn down and the Texans’ rushing attack of Arian Foster and Ben Tate will take over. Tannehill looked shaky in the preseason and could wind up having a Blaine Gabbert-type rookie season. According to latest NFL trends, the Texans are 6-1-2 against the spread in their last nine games versus the AFC and 6-2-2 ATS in their last 10 home games.
