    When you call it an anti-jinx thread, you jinx the thread.

    best thing to do now is lock 'er up.

    Well Hoyer is a ticking timebomb, when the pressure rises he crumbles.

    3-2 is realistic. Make wild card. Best cincy lose to patriots. Seen this scenario before

    Hoyer has a bald head. I can't remember the last time a QB with no hair led his team to the championship.

    The road is still rough.

    Both the Colts and Texans should win vs Jax and Tenn. That gets them both to 8 wins.

    Texans play @Buff and vs NE. Possibly dogs both games.

    Colts play @Pitt and @Mia. They'll be dogs at pitt but not mia.

    The other remaining game is Texans @ Colts.

    Looks to me like we must win at Buff and at Indy, or hope Indy gets upset by Tenn or Jax

    There's always the wild card. Chiefs have an easy schedule but they are not that good. They could lose to the Raiders.
    The Steelers are good but have to play the Colts, Bengals, and Broncos after they survive today's game at Seattle.

    Matt Hasselbeck led Seattle to a SB appearance.

    The Texans have a better conference record than the Steelers. I think that is the tie-breaker. So if the season ended today, the Texans will be the 2nd wild card team.

    Chance to make the playoffs...and the Titans stun the Texans...

    The Texans are notorious for snatching defeat from the jaws of victory...

    Your "anti-jinx" didn't work for the Patriots game. Why would you do it again?

    Title shouldn't be limited to simply Texans... it's a Houston thing

    We either choke or get screwed by a call

    The Texans are not very good so I wouldn't call it choking.

    Exactly. Can't really choke when you are a below average team.

    If a below average team can't beat the belower average, it's a choke.
