10-6 here, I truly believe this is the year. If they win 120 games though, that would be a hell of a feat.

Man, that'd be a long season! Any bets on if Schaub can make it though? LOL

Well, it just shows how high my expectations are this season for the Texans.

I voted 120-4.
I figure we'll outscore everyone so badly in the first quarter that they'll agree to call the game a loss and ask for a do-over. Same thing happens again in the next first quarter. I figure we can amass anywhere from 5-10 wins per week doing this. Some teams will want more do-overs out of pride but, ultimately, the results will be the same. Oh, and the four losses, those come in week 14 when we have homefield sewn up for the playoffs and the team lets the fans field a team. The fans lose the games, of course, but when your final record is 120-4, who cares?

9 - 7 for me. Still make the playoffs though.
Concerns still about the defence especially the secondary. |

We won't make the playoffs at 9-7, unless the AFC absolutely sucks it up this year.

Take your point, but I'm thinking because it is so competitive and that the teams have relative parity that a 9-7 record will get in.

I cracked myself up over it. Not at your expense, just in general.
I'd really say 9-7 - 11-5. Split the difference and call it 10-6. That secondary still makes me nervous, though.

Yeah, the defensive secondary will cost us some games this year, count on it. But even with our obvious weakness there, we can still do 9-7 or 10-6.

I went with 11-5, but I think we could be anywhere from 9-7 to 12-4 depending on the luck of a bounce here and there, and of course the ever present "injury bug." I still don't see us any worse than 9-7 though. JMHO!

I went with 11-5 because we were damned close to it last season. A couple of bad plays cost us at least 2 games. We're also still playing a 3rd place schedule and I like the way it shapes up for us. How we do NEXT season, playing a a 1st place, division winning schedule will be a truer test of where we are as a team.
