NFL Preseason - Bucs At Houston Texans

Your Tampa Bay Buccaneers travel to Houston this Thursday to take on the Texans in the final preseason game of 2010.

Tampa Bay lost a home contest to the Jacksonville Jaguars last week, 19-13, while the Texans picked up their first win of the preseason, beating Dallas, 23-7.

Typically, starters play very little -- if at all -- in the last preseason game. It will be no different this time, as Houston plans to rest their starters, and with a handful of Buccaneers nursing "insignificant" injuries, you can bet Tampa Bay's starters will do lots of sitting.

Speaking of betting (yep, even on preseason games!), the Texans opened as three-point favorites, though the line has come down as low as 1.5 points at some books.

To learn more about the Houston Texans, check out Battle Red Blog.  For the Bucs, of course, visit Bucs Nation.
