...but what's the likelihood that the Texans could finish with a winning record for the 2008 season? I mean, granted, the Jags' defense is not nearly what it was last year, but I think there is some chance of it, at least. In fact, I'd say the chances of the Texans once again breaking even is fairly good, as well.
They play Sunday at Green Bay. The Packers have been awful lately, and they seem to be in the same category as the Texans - good offense, terrible defense. Unfortunately for the Texans, the game will be away from Houston and probably in harsh weather. Schaub will be back, though. It's definitely a winnable game.
The next week, they play the shitfuckers at home. Now, the Titans are obviously a far superior team to the Texans, but maybe they'll get lucky.
After that, it's smooth sailing: @Oakland (if the Texans can't beat the Raiders, they're fucked anyways) and vs Chicago. So it comes down to this: if the Texans can beat Green Bay, they have an off chance at a winning season. If they can pull off the upset against Tennessee, then I'd say it's a virtual lock.
That I'm even entertaining this idea would have been crazy two weeks ago. But - for whatever reason - the offense was clicking last night and the defense really stepped up.
Oh, and Chester Pitts' pre-game huddle pep-talk further cemented him as my favorite Texan. If I could pick athletes to actually hang out with, the list would look something like this:
1) Pitts - dude plays the Oboe. We could jam and shit.
2) Berkman - loves Jesus and football; seems like a nice guy.
3) Battier / T-Mac
