Playing for pride now, my Texans are. The rest of the schedule: Seattle, at Miami, at St. Louis, and New England. I think if we would have won this game at Jacksonville, we COULD have been in better position to maybe take the AFC Wild Card. Here's how I thought it would have happened:
* close win at JAX, beat SEA-STL, New England rests its star players for the playoffs, we beat New England- we play for AFC Wild Card.
But at this point, who cares? We lost to Jacksonville, now we're playing for next season. I'm still a Texans fan, even if most others have given up on the Texans. Here's the difference. I'm an Astros fan, but I don't believe they'll ever succeed anytime soon. I'm a Texans fan, and I think they'll one day really emerge. Not win the AFC South, but consistently play for a Wild Card. It takes a while to be a contender for the AFC South. But again... who cares? We're done. Could have beaten Jacksonville, but we didn't. Could have saved our season, but we didn't. Hoping for a better 2010 here in H-Town...
