    Wherever it’s not snowing. Doesn’t look to be unbearable cold in either place.

    I think we'd have a better chance against the Ravens due to the weather conditions. Kansas City will be 16° F while Baltimore will be 30° F. It's going to be cold either way but Baltimore will have slightly better weather. Hopefully, we don't have to play under windy or snowy conditions where we will have to run the ball more.

    My sentiments exactly. Much like the Jets game where the weather threw the team out of sync.

    At this point I’d rather they play in the better weather conditions, and let them earn their win that way.

    In a bit miffed at the poll.

    who’d I want the Texans to play?


    Where is the option for both!!!! because after we beat whoever the opponent is next week, we likely play either Kansas City or Baltimore the following week.

    Except Peyton Manning. He used to beat the Texans twice every year.

    . I fear Met-death field more than any of the teams left. I'm not saying they can win easily. All I'm saying is they can give either team a good game. Stroud gives you more than a puncher's chance.

    Both are extremely tough opponents and on the road to boot. KC looked more vulnerable than Baltimore during the reg. Baltimore with some impressive wins down the stretch, but definitely a history of playoff underachieving during the Lamar years. Playoff Mahomes should always be feared and Arrowhead is quite the home field advantage, but I’m still going to have to say Houston’s chances are better against Kansas City given the fleas that have been on display all season for The Chiefs.

    I was going to say Baltimore looked more favorable for a pass-heavy game in terms of the weather, but then I saw they're forecasting clouds and high winds there on Saturday. So now I don't know. KC is going to be cold AF, but weather looks clear and sunny. Might actually be easier on the quarterback overall.

    KC payback for canceling our playoff runs. I want to see Mahomes cry some more. Ravens are tough, L Jack always has a mind of an underdog. Beating Super Bowl champ is going to make Texans greatest of all Texans teams.

    also John Harbaugh taking a shot at Div rival Pitt by saying ‘We’re dialed into Houston” LMFAO!!!

    We're playing the Ravens. This was decided after watching the first 5 mins of Steelers vs Bills. Steelers have nothing.

    Pitts was never going to beat Buff. Playing Baltimore was never in doubt. Just make it a game rather than getting blown out in embarrassing fashion like the cowgirls or Miami

    Who would you rather beat?

    Texans have history against both teams.. history of losing. Chiefs are 2-0 vs Texans in the playoffs, both historically embarrassing losses, and Baltimore beat the Texans' best team in 2011. We win there with Schaub healthy and advance to the Conference round. Schaub. lol. 2011 was very good outside of QB.

    Is anyone uncomfortable about Baltimore taking our old players then winning a championship? Jacoby had legit Superbowl MVP argument. Ravens had a bunch of Texans. We get a washed Reed in return.

    Who would you rather beat?

    Good choice either way. I'm leaning KC due to a better recent history.

    My problem with Jacoby Jones was how he muffed a punt in the playoffs and gifted the Ravens a difference-making TD. It was a really doofy play. I'm sure very few people here remember how good the Texans were that year.

    Then he signs with the Ravens and blew up in the playoffs the following year helping the Ravens with the Super Bowl.
