The Texans!

OMG! they've stunned us again this year in their opener!

they beat the dolphins IN MIAMI!

i think that they have a REAL GOOD SHOT at makin the playoff's this year under dom capers.

even more surprising is the fact that the miami D did NOT sack carr at all! that's after carr took over the sack record last year.

the offensive line is doing real good and the def has been above avg and we just might have a playoff team in our hands.

On any given sunday... last time I checked 1 win didn't equal a playoff berth.

Loosen your bolero, Tex. Make sure your brain is getting enough oxygen.

Ah schucks, I suppose anyone can beat anyone in the NFL. The Texans got better when they added a back that can be used every down. They have some talent at wideout.

I think they'll give up too many points, and the offensive line will be exploited just yet - my opinion - no way they make the playoffs.

However, the worst team in the NFL? Far from it. Chicago, Arizona, and Cincinnati I think will lead that list.

Mediocre record is possible, but I think a playoff berth is getting ahead of yourself.

Man, I think the role of the Texans from here on out will be opening spoilers, until they actually get good and maybe win a Super Bowl (stranger things have happened *cough* New England *cough*).

I don't see them quite following the path of the 1995 expansion teams (Carolina and Jacksonville) who both made the playoffs their second seasons. A 6-8 win season is a reasonable expectation from them.

Where they'll beat the Bengals in the AFC championship game and go on to play the Bears in the Superbowl.

Sorry Dude, but they'll need more than one win to make the playoffs.

I'm not really a Texans fan, but becomming more of one after each win.

If they can beat Miami @ Miami, they have a lot of potential.

It's silly to watch some fans jump to conclusions before the season is even halfway over, let alone after 1 game

Who thought the Browns, Falcons, and Jets were gonna make the playoffs last year? Anything can happen and its just gonna make it that much sweeter when the Texans prove it wasnt a fluke.

New life to an old thread. The game against the Pats was almost as disheartening as the Oiler's record loss to the Bills for me. At least the Texans were in it until well after the end of regulation. After the blocked punt, the blocked field goal, the interception in OT, the resulting loss of yardage; what a rollercoaster. That was the most exciting game I have seen in awhile. (well, also that Tampa Bay win on Monday Night earlier this season.)

Also, I have heard the old AFL Texans became the KC Chiefs. Anyone know about this?

There were two Dallas Texans teams.

One played in the early fifties, and got so little fan support that they played their one year as "Dallas" almost exclusivly on the road, then became the Baltimore Colts.

Similar thing happened with the AFL team; they got poor support then moved to KC.

Thanks! You are my new hero of sports trivia. Were the Colts the same as the Colt 45's?

This does seem to be shaping up into one mean division. There are no Bengals or Chargers to be the whipping boys. I predict the Texans will be in a playoff game in two more years. As for the Titans, until Butt Adams sells the team they can't win the big game. He is cursed.
