NFL Odds Week 1: Dolphins Vs. Texans
The Texans are expected to come out on top this Sunday.
The Dolphins head into the season with a lot of questions, and none may be more significant than those surrounding rookie quarterback Ryan Tannehill, who won the starting job during training camp. Miami is one of a handful of teams starting a rookie quarterback in the opening week, and it will also be looking to establish some reliable receiving targets.
Houston, which went 3-1 in the preseason, is considerably more settled at the skill positions.
Kickoff between the Dolphins and Texans is set for 1 p.m. ET on Sunday.
