While nobody expected to see the Houston Texans in the NFL Playoffs prior to the season, they are now one of the hottest teams remaining. They have their work cut out for them in Baltimore, but given their recent play, we have seen quite the Houston Texans Super Bowl odds update, as this team is now being viewed as a legitimate contender... by some.

Houston Texans Super Bowl Odds Are Insane

Thanks to the coaching of first-year head coach DeMeco Ryans and the terrific play of rookie quarterback CJ Stroud, Houston has showcased one of the most impressive turnarounds in NFL history. They entered the season tied for the worst odds to win the Super Bowl, and now they are a team to be respected.

The recent Houston Texans Super Bowl odds update gives them +2800 odds to win it all. This means a $10 bet on the Texans to win the Super Bowl would pay $280.

Yes, the Texans face the tough task of playing the Ravens in Baltimore this weekend. However, if Houston pulls off an upset, a trip to Super Bowl LVIII is certainly in the cards. Currently, numberFire only gives the Texans a 33.3% chance to win the game.

Texans vs Ravens Prediction

The Houston Texans are playing inspired football for their rookie head coach and quarterback. The offense is playing with great rhythm, but they will run into one of the best defensive units in the league. What may end up being the defense is the Baltimore Ravens' offense, as they have been terrific, and they will battle against a Houston defense that has been inconsistent at best.

Currently, the odds favor the home team to win. The ESPN Matchup Predictor for the Texans vs Ravens prediction gives Baltimore an 81.7% chance to win this NFL Playoffs Divisional Round matchup.

Last Houston Texans Super Bowl

Some may be wondering when the last Houston Texans Super Bowl was. However, Houston is the NFL's newest franchise. They were founded in 1999, entered the league in 2002, and have not made a Super Bowl yet.

The franchise has made the NFL Playoffs seven times, but they have been unable to win an AFC Championship. Is Super Bowl LVIII going to be the first Super Bowl appearance for Houston?
