Countdown to Kickoff: Washington Commanders at Houston Texans

Good morning all you guys and gals and non-binary pals and welcome to Week 11 of the NFL season. As of this current writing, your Houston Texans have won exactly one game against our perennial punching bag, the Jacksonville Jaguars. Today, the Texans face the Washington Commanders, one of the few teams in the NFL where most Texans fans can still breathe a sigh of relief and thank the football gods that they are not Commanders fans.

Because as awful an owner as Cal McNair is, and make no mistake, he is bad at his “job,” he does not hold a candle to Dan Snyder, who is, as near as I can tell, actively trying to achieve supervillain status at every turn.

Enough about that though, here are your official picks for this Sunday’s slate of games brought to you by DraftKings Sportsbook, which has the Texans as 3-point underdogs to the Commanders.
