Seattle Seahawks vs Houston Texans NFL Picks, NFL Odds & NFL Predictions: The Houston Texans will host the NFC West's Seattle Seahawks this afternoon at Reliant Stadium. The Seahawks may be a little road weary as today's showdown with the Texans represents their fourth away game in the last five weeks. The game is set toget underway at 1:00pm ET on FOX. NFL Picks at Bookmaker.com have the Texans listed as a -7 against the spread favorite.
Seahawks Breakdown: Seattle fought itself into a tie for second place in the NFC West last weekend and improved to 5-7 on 
the season with a 20-17 win over the Forty Niners at Qwest Field. The close victory came on the heels of a 27-17 win at St. Louis, giving the Seahawks their first back-to-back wins of the year.
Jim Mora's squad is still on the outside looking in in terms of the playoffs, but they do have a chance to finish at or above the .500 mark with games against Houston, Tampa Bay, Green Bay and Tennessee still on the docket.
The Seahawks have been a horrible road team this season, going just 1-5 (1-5 ATS) away from Qwest Field. Their offense is averaging just 16.7 points per game on the road and their defense is yielding 29.7 in return.
Texans Breakdown: Houston enters today's game in a full blown free fall. At one point the Texans looked as though they might actually make their first playoff appearance, but four consecutive losses has almost guaranteeed that they will not. Houston's lackluster play continued last weekend as the team lost to AFC South rival Jacksonville, a team they now trail by two games in the AFC playoff standings, 18-23 at Jacksonville Stadium.
The Texans face a must win ball game today if they want to maintain their slim post-season hopes. Their record at home this year probably does not provide much confidence as they are just 2-4 (1-4-1 ATS) at Reliant Stadium.
NFL Picks Betting Trend: Seattle is 2-8 against the spread and straight up in its last 10 games as a road dog with a total between 44.5 and 47.
