Houston Texans vs. Dallas Cowboys: NFL Week 4 predictions from Houston Chronicle sports staff

The Houston Texans find themselves in a desperate situation as they prepare to face the Dallas Cowboys in a crucial Week 4 matchup. With their AFC standings at stake, the Texans need a win to avoid falling further behind. However, optimism is tempered by the team's recent struggles. Jonathan M. Alexander predicts a narrow 29-27 victory for the Cowboys, while Reid Laymance forecasts a close 27-23 win for the Texans.

Greg Rajan offers a slightly different outlook, forecasting a 23-21 Texans triumph. Despite recent offensive setbacks, some believe the Texans' defense may prove more formidable than the Cowboys' offense. For now, the consensus leans towards betting on the Texans, hoping their recent momentum returns with the return of running back Nico Collins.
