Texans have to play by far their best game of the season to win and the Bengals have to play one of their worst. Bengals > Texans in all phases of football.

You do realize they are only half a game from the division lead and a game and a half from the wild card spot. This is not the best year to tank. Too many bad teams. Cleveland, Tennessee, Baltimore, San Diego, Detroit, and Dallas are almost guarantees to finish worse than the Texans. http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/standings/playoffrace Not to mention Lynch is not a lock to be great in the NFL
