This week on Sunday Night Football, there’s a showdown between two of the NFL’s most touted young quarterbacks. Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears travel to Houston to face CJ Stroud and the Houston Texans.

Both teams are 1-0 after Week 1, but the odds are clearly in favor of the Texans, who enter the game with a 5.5-point lead according to FanDuel Sportsbook. Stroud has proven to be one of the best young quarterbacks in the NFL. His arm strength, quick throw and precise placement have bolstered the Texans’ offense and elevated the players around him to new levels.

The Bears have a lot of potential on defense, but their offense is still struggling to find its feet behind first-round pick Caleb Williams.

Chris’ choice: I have to go with Vegas here and pick the Texans. Chicago has positioned itself well for a rebuild, but this is only Game 2 while the Texans are in year 2 and expect to contend for the playoffs.
