    Vegas released the over under lines and they have the Texans win count at 8.5. So what you got?

    Tough schedule but for the texans it's playoffs or bust. I think they have enough talent to win at least 10 games.

    Under. I have them at 8 wins. I could see them getting to 9 or 10 though.

    I'll go 10-6 because...

    1) Our young guys(Ryans, Williams, Cushing, Slaton, JJ, Brown)will all hit their stride.

    2) As tough as our schedule may be, the divison has not improved at all and Denver, KC, Oakland and Redskins do not scare me at all.

    3) We will actually have a running game with Tate/SS and DRob's loss will not be felt with Kareem ready to step in.

    They will be between 7-9 and 9-7 and will miss the playoffs.

    Rookie CB's just don't step in. Even Deion and Champ got their licks big time when they were rookies.

    Tough schedule, and the NFC east loves to air it out. Jackson was the most "NFL ready" though. I'm going with the over because we'll have Rackers or a Kris Brown that beat out Neil Rackers.

    DRob was not very good last year, it won't take much to replace his cover skills that's for sure so even if Kareem struggles it would still be at least even. Saying that, I'll be surprised if he doesn't impress a lot of folks around the NFL.

    I don't follow football enough to make an educated guess.

    I just hope that schedule doesn't turn out to be as tough as it looks right now.

    I'm assuming that this is expected to be the best Texans team to date, right?

    Doesn't mean anything. Deion was burnt on a regular basis and John Taylor owned him. No Cushing this will def. mean a mediocre season for the Texans.

    Losing Cushing is a major blow!

    No he wasn't because he held out. But rookie CBs don't come in and play dominant.

    Never said he would be a shut down corner just a suprisingly good corner and either because he wasn't very good, injury or because of he held out DRob didn't play well and Kareem could easily take over and do just a good of a job.

    true, I'm sure Kareem has the ability to get beat deep every single time just like Dunta. I can't imagine him being a whole lot worse than Robinson was last season.

    Also, I a going under due to the ridiculous schedule and arguably their best defensive player missing the start of the season

    He's going to get his licks as a rookie. Trust me. Every team will be gunning for a mismatch with him and he'll have to cover the likes of Austin Miles, Reggie Wayne, Braylon Edwards and so forth and it's going to be pretty.
