    I wouldn't be surprised at all if they finish 10-6.

    As of right now, they'd be favored to beat Jacksonville twice, San Diego, and Cincy.... with Indy being almost a pick 'em the way they're circling the drain.

    They would be underdogs (and likely will lose) against Oakland, Green Bay.

    Last game of the season at Tennessee may be the difference between 11-5 and 10-6... and that's only really important if a first round bye is on the line.

    Schedule is pretty damn favorable... yet again, that's largely because of the division they play in and Cincy being a far cry from the division winner they were last year.

    So the Raiders look less beatable now but the Packers look more beatable.

    I still feel pretty good about 6 but with Jags at home they might be tanking.

    Welcome to your worst case scenario.

    Also I love the fact that you set the arbitrary guideline on when a knee jerk occurs.

    Actually I guess it isn't arbitrary, it is when you change your mind on the thing in question. The people who came to the same conclusion earlier knee jerked amirite?

    The Texans not winning another game this season is absolutely the worst case scenario.

    So you like their chances on the road against the divisions two best qb's. They haven't won a game on the road all season. Your prediction is toast. Mine still in play. That pick was a kneejerk on your part.

    I can predict the Texans win total in the postseason. Zero.

    Just like last year.

    I would love to see the Raiders at NRG in the 1st round. I think the Texans take them down the second time around

    If it happened just like that then it would be a best case scenario end of the season. That would be pretty sweet honestly.

    so can yall confirm this for me?

    Week 15
    Titans at Kansas City
    Jags at Texans

    If the Titans lose and the Texans win, does a Week 16 Win against Cincy clinch the division no matter what for the Texans?

    Yes. Any combination of one more loss for the Titans and 2 more wins for the Texans clinches the division.

    Yes. If the Texans beat the Jags, they essentially clinch the tie-breaker between them and the Titans. If the Texans win the next two games and Tennessee loses one of the next two. The best the Titans can hope for is a tie. And with a tie, the Texans are in.

    10 can still happen even with all the injuries.
