    The down side of losing is far greater than the upside of winning. We would be in the lead in the division based on 2 head to head wins over the MaGuires with a win. We would be 2 games behind if we lose AND lose the Head to head advantage in the event of a tie.

    That said, I think they are not as well equipped to go far in the playoffs as we would be.

    Unfortunately even if Houston wins it’ll be tough to win the division. Jacksonville has a favorable schedule and could go 5-1 in their final 6 games.

    Tend to agree there.
    With Jimmy Ward back on the field, Jalen Pitre's play elevates substantially. Plus Denzel Perryman back on deck too? I think our D would be better.
    Then on the offense, we get the beast - Noah Brown back in there and we have a very strong receiver corp as well.
    Just a pity this wasn't all in place for Sunday's game.

    Yeah we have an easier schedule. But not by much.

    Sucks that were not playing today. It feels like a Sunday and no Texans football.

    I like staying with a routine until we mature as a team.

    Am I the only one pissed that the experts are close to unified that we CAN'T win this game?

    True, but if the Texans win this one, they could realistically win out the rest of the schedule and they'd have the tiebreaker.

    I'm used to it. I laugh at how many times we prove them wrong. They love "Swish my Hair" Lawrence so much. I really want to win this! We need to bring the Defense!
