Honestly, a great job after starting 0-3 on the back of a poor 2017...

Weak? Name four weak opponents we played this season.Good thing we played that weak ass schedule. Bravo Texans. Cant wait till next year. Big boy football coming.
This year was the cycle, last place teams just up and win the division. It's by design. See the bears.
Now back to back 10 win seasons. That's thread worthy. Not being as ass but we all know
Yeah I thought we were going to find out next week. Steelers and the refs from that game helped the Texans.Didn’t know if we’d make it but we did!

AFC east and NFC east. Duh.Weak? Name four weak opponents we played this season.
The weak schedule myth should be exposed.
AFC E - I'll give you Bills and Jets but not Pats or Miami - who we beat 42-23.AFC east and NFC east. Duh.
Do you not know how the schedule rotation works. It worked in our favor and we drew two weak divisions
Its nfl science. Next year won't be the same. 10 wins next year will be dope.
So right now we get indi in playoffs?
Steelers not making the playoffs would be so awesome. Bell wasn't worth the cash lol
So looking like we will have to play titans or colts first round? Ehh I don’t feel well.

Not to mention the division One of the Colts or the Titans was will wind up 10-6...the other will be 9-7... hardly pushovers.AFC E - I'll give you Bills and Jets but not Pats or Miami - who we beat 42-23.
NFC E - if you think that is a weak division, you are dreaming. We beat Dallas who leads that division and the "skins as well and barely lost to the reigning SB champs.
If we get the Colts in the playoffs at least it will spare us from going to NE to lose another one up there, we can lose our playoff game right here at home.![]()
Not only that if we lose to Jags we will blow division and play on the road wild card weekend. Thats rich especially when playoff payments will be due the 27th. Season ticket holders could be paying their next season deposit masked as a playoff payment.
+Santa Claus is real.Texans beat Jags
+
Oakland beats KC
+
Denver beats Chargers
+
Jets beat or tie NE
=
Texans #1 seed
The way this season has been I'd like to see it end in a tie.I agree we have a better shot if Titans win that game next week.

Brady has started looking mortal with weaknesses. Gronk injury prone.
I am not fearing them as much as in the past.
Baltimore and San Diego look dangerous.
KC will be a shootout, and we have a far superior defense.
It will be interesting.

Do we? If Nick Foles can get almost 500 yards on them Mahomes probably gets 750. Elite speed at WR, huge Texans problem, elite TE, even bigger Texans problem.
Think we agree, my order of preference:Likely scenarios: if we beat Jags, it's home against Colts/Titans, followed by a road trip to NE. Lose and it's away to Baltimore followed by a road trip to KC.
I might actually prefer a road trip to Baltimore to a game against the Colts. BOB will never sanction putting enough points on the board to counter the late game Andrew Luck charge which inevitably happens. Colts will win it with the last possession as usual. Baltimore know less about us and it's a game we have a decent chance in.
I definitely prefer us at home to the Titans though, if they pull off a win against Indy, the victory against the Jags is a must.
Id even throw the Jets in the conversation, they are playing better. They will give the Pats all they want next week.AFC E - I'll give you Bills and Jets but not Pats or Miami - who we beat 42-23.
NFC E - if you think that is a weak division, you are dreaming. We beat Dallas who leads that division and the "skins as well and barely lost to the reigning SB champs.
The AFC South has more wins than all but one division I believe. There's 6 games alone.I’d even th

Disagree about Miami - they beat Pats not long ago and Giants were more than a handful for us.Buffalo. NyGiants, 49ers, Miami. Jags.

Ravens fans will definitely be rooting for the Jags, that game has huge implications to them. Home to us if the jags win or on the road to the chargers if we win.

Is the "on this forum" part supposed to imply that the first part isn't nasty enough on its own?

I feel dirty reading this.

Those two games can mean the difference between a one seed and being a wild card.The difference between a first and last place schedule is only two games that are different. It isn't that big a deal.
Houston clinches AFC South division title and home-field advantage throughout AFC playoffs with:
HOU win + NE loss or tie + KC loss + LAC loss + HOU clinches a tie in strength of victory tiebreaker over KC
Houston clinches AFC South division title and a first-round bye with:
HOU win + NE loss or tie OR
HOU win + KC loss + LAC loss + HOU clinches a tie in strength of victory tiebreaker over KC OR
HOU tie + NE loss OR
IND-TEN tie + NE loss + BAL win + HOU clinches a tie in strength of victory tiebreaker over BAL
Houston clinches AFC South division title with:
HOU win or tie OR
IND-TEN tie
Interesting that there was a claim of bad wins early in the year, and here we sit with S.O.V. as a tie breaker in our advantage in several scenarios.
At a quick glance the Chiefs had a pretty tough schedule as did the Vikings.
The Titans ended up playing two playoff teams we didn’t - the Ravens and Chargers.
Texans got to play Denver and Cleveland. Colts got to play Bengals and Raiders.
Outside of that the only playoffs teams we have played are the Patriots and Cowboys. Teams that are in the hunt are Eagles.
We just haven’t played many teams that are in the playoff conversation. Are the Redskins and Denver tough teams? I will give you that. Playoff teams? No. Then you have Dolphins, Bills, Giants...
Our season would have been a lot different had we played the Chargers and Ravens. We probably wouldn’t be talking playoffs.
