The first round of the NFL playoffs are set. The sportsbooks have been abuzz all day with people getting the early jump on this weekend’s NFL action.
The Bills take their vaunted defense to Houston to do battle with the slipping Texans. Can Houston get it together and keep their wagons from getting circled?
