    Slow down damnit. Reserve that prediction till you see the team midway through the season.

    If that is how the season plays out....we will lose in the first round of the playoffs.

    3-1 in the NFC North , will put us in the AFC championship game.

    I agree with what you have to say about our defense. The problem is that you are overlooking the fact that the packers and ESPECIALLY the patriots don't have a chance in hell at stopping our offense. We will run right over NE, I see our D putting up a better fight than theirs even in that cold weather.

    This is what I'm thinking too based on what I see on paper with this team.

    +/- 2 games. I could see them going 12-4.....or 10-6.

    This is Baby Steps Kubiak we're talking about here. There won't be any big gains made year to year.

    11-5. Lose in the AFC championship game, one of the last four teams.

    I would say 10-12 wins.

    I would say losses to Packers, Patriots, Ravens, and Titans in Tennessee.
    not sure if win: Detroit, Bills

    the division record will be 5-1.

    Yes, my opinion on NFL football is so important that I must reserve it for later. This is all very serious business.

    It's possible you're taking this all too seriously. Ask me to predict how the Texans will do based on what I saw last season and I'll tell you that, if Schaub had been there last year, I believe we would have been in the Super Bowl. So I'm betting he'll be around at the end of the season this year...and that they'll get to the Super Bowl. Hell, even the paid commentators whose opinions we're SUPPOSED to take seriously make pre-season predictions.

    I promise you that my prediction will have no bearing on the actual outcome, so it's totally safe for me to say it. We're all gonna be just fine.

    No significant injuries: 13-3

    Significant injuries (most likely scenario): 10-6

    10-6, AFC South Champs. Would say 11-5 or 12-4 but the injury bug has never been kind to the Texans.

    We will beat NE. I think we are a more complete team than GB this year but it will be our first real challenge as a superbowl team this year. We lose to them, learn from it and go out and beat NE later in the season.


    W1 Dolphins - W
    W2 @JAX - W
    W3 @DEN -L (We are a better team, but we will have our first hickup)
    W4 Titans - W
    W5 @NYJ - W
    W6 Packers - L
    W7 Ravens - W
    W8 ---Bye---
    W9 Bills - L (starters go in too relaxed)
    W10 @CHI - W
    W11 Jaguars - W
    W12 @DET - L
    W13 @TEN -W
    W14 @NE - W
    W15 Colts - W
    W16 Vikings - W
    W17 @IND - L (Rest Starters unless we need it)

    11-5

    team has the talent to be a top 3 offense and a top 3 defense, so 15-1 is an obtainable goal. But it's the nfl, players are going to get hurt and the ball will bounce in funny ways. final record....12-4

    1.new england. 1st rd bye
    2.Houston 1st rd bye
    3. Steelers
    4.Broncos
    5. Ravens
    6.Raiders or chiefs

    11-5

    I'll actually throw in another random loss in there and put my money on 10-6. That still wins the division and gets them in the playoffs. That's what matters most. From there...anybody's game.

    (I see I have us sweeping the division. I don't think that will happen. The "random loss" referenced above will likely come within the division.)
