Longshot with TEN must be all about us never beating VY. Because, and forgive me if I sound like a hater, but those jackasses still can't stop anyone.
I only made that a longshot because I don't expect us to beat them twice. It's certainly do-able, but in my prediction I have us beating them once (in the must-wins) and losing once (longshots).
I said 10-6 two weeks ago, folks. I have never picked our boys to go to the playoffs. 2010 changes that. Texans to the playoffs, and probably as the 6th seed.

My "cautiously optimistic" outlook. 9-7 again. Not predicting them to take a step back(record-wise anyways), although they very well could. Spoiler Others: SI : 8-8 SI(2) : 8-8 ESPN : 6-10 ESPN(2) : 6-10 Football Outsiders : 6-10 Pro Football Focus : 10-6 WhatIf Sports : 7-9(8-8) Spoiler 1: Colts - L(Can't pick you to win until you prove it/do it more than once) 2: @Redskins - W(See a win but what if they W vs. Indy and lay a stinker vs WASH?) 3: Cowboys - W(Any indications from the preseason game, Cowboys are in trouble. Got O-line issues. We'll see.) 4: @Raiders - W(Again, see a W but could lay an egg here and lose) 5: Giants - W(Giants have really fallen off. No better than 8-8 or 9-7 imo) 6: Chiefs - W(Chiefs rebuilding W) Bye 7: @Colts - L(Again, can't pick you to win until you do it more than once) 8: Chargers - L(Toss-up. Could go either way but I'll say L) 9: @Jaguars - L(Think they split with J-Ville. Put a W here if you want and a L at the end of the season game in Wk 17) 10: @Jets - L(Jets owned us last year. Chris Myers will likely still be starting. Should I expect different? No, I won't/don't). 11: Titans - L(Like Jacksonville, see a split here. So put a W here if you want and a L in 3 weeks) 12: @Eagles - W(Should win but you never know. If you expect to be in the playoffs, should beat a rebuilding/restocking whatever you want to call it Eagles team. 13: Ravens - L(Another aggressive D. Beat up on us 2 years ago. Surrounded Joe with some potentially good parts on O with Anquan Boldin and Housh to go along with Rice) 14: @Titans - W(See Titans above) 15: @Broncos - W(Should win. Broncos are meh) 16: Jaguars - W(See Jaguars above) What could make/break Texans season: Matt Schaub Texans secondary Running game Notice some also have us at the magical 5-7 after week 13! Heh.
5-11...........Yall puttin all your hopes in dreams into the legs of an undrafteed 2nd year player and a Demarco Faggins clone(Kareem Jackson).......gonna be lol all season :grin: :grin: :grin:
7-9 or 6-10, I'm serious. I know everyone thinks I'm a troll or hater, but I really think the Texans won't win 8 games this year.
No, I don't think I'll take it that far. I barely post as is. Just saying, I voted 7-9... And according to my number crunch, I don't see them winning 8 games.
We're winning more than 8 games.....we're a better team than last year just based on the players we cut alone.
The majority or all of NFL teams look better before the actual season starts. Doesn't mean they'll improve in record.
