Love the optimism. Picking up Nnamdi Asomugha would put us right in the running the a wild-card spot next year. We have to stay healthy though; I'm not worried about Dre or Schaub so much as our offensive linemen and secondary. Even if we do manage to field a top 6 AFC team at the beginning of the season, eight or nine weeks of attrition will take its toll on our team. Kubiak and Rick Smith still haven't had enough time to really build up our depth to that of a championship-caliber team.

Nash, I appreciate your concern with developing depth on the Texans, but what is the best way to develop depth in a league that prides itself on parity?

By playing your reserves against the rest of the leagues starters. In the last 2 years the Texans led the NFL in most players on IR. 

By necessity, the Texans have had to play their reserves more than any other NFL team, and they have found a few diamonds in the rough as a result. Fred Bennett, Charley Anderson, Mike Brisell, Earl Cochran, Anthony Maddox, Zach Diles, Joel Dreesen, Von Hutchins, Will Demps, Andre Davis, Darius Walker, etc.

If the Texans get healthy next year, draft well, pick up a few key FA's, and avoid the injury bug, they could surprise everyone. If they do get healthy they will have a luxury of depth. I admit I am worried about CB, SA, RB, and Center depth at this point.

Even so, the Texans 2nd and 3rd stringers have more NFL game experience than most teams going into 2008. I like their chances next year much better than the odds makers in Vegas do. The next 2-3 years should be very exciting for Texans fans, as this franchise is about to turn the corner.

I honestly believe that you have a chance this next year. Keep up the hope! You guys rock! If your guys can stay healthy, you can easily get a playoff spot.

With so much depth at running back this year in the draft,I believe the rookie of the year will come from whatever running back the Texans draft and while kubiak is stacking up the jags improving as well,tough division over there.

I like the Texans, and I would love to see them make the playoffs, but as long as they are in the AFC South it just isn't going to happen unless the Titans suck seriously. Look at it this way, three of the AFC playoff teams came from the AFC South. The Texans are doing well, but they need luck more than skill to get in this next year. Not to take away from their talent, as they have a very talented unit, just saying because you've got a super bowl team in the division.

I am trying to shine some light on the Texans. Why are you so negative. Whatever happens will happen, and you should have an upbeat attitude until your team is elimanated from playoff contention. I started this poll becuase I thought that the Texans could make the playoffs and to see the optimism on everyone who is a Texans fan. Vince Young, David Garrard are both overrated, and Payton Manning can only win becuase his team pumps in  crowd noise. Always stay positive when someone is shining light on your team.

well this is a Titans fan here.... and with the new additions to the team there is no way the titans are sucking next year and i dont think Jax is getting any worse and Peyton still has his targets.... so unless the league changes there is no way the Texans are making the playoffs .... BTW have fun with Chris Brown ... he was great for us  Maybe this time we willl be on the recieving end of the fumble.... also i dont think sage will ever win against us ... the last two he couldnt finish the game... lol ... watch out for the FREAK this year....

You can get into the playoffs through the wild card. The new season has yet to start, and anything can happen. Good luck to all the teams, especially the Texans.
