It may have escaped the notice of the average Houston Texans fan that the team has a 7-5 record going into the last five games of the season. Okay, that part I’m sure even the most basic Texans fan would notice. But if you haven’t been paying attention the last two years, and why the hell would you, it’s also true that this year’s Texans team has already matched their win total from the last two years combined.
That’s not saying a ton for the Texans of the past, but it speaks volumes for how much of a turnaround this has been; going from one of the worst years of Texans football I’ve ever seen to this wondrous, and more importantly, fun, season that may extend beyond week 18 if the Texans play their cards right.
