Houston was champions of the AFC South last year and hosted the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Playoff game. The Texans were embarrassed at home losing 30-0 to KC.

Brock Osweiler was signed in free agency to lead the Texan’s offense. A huge signing in the offseason was acquiring running back Lamar Miller. DeAndre Hopkins is a key player in the passing game. Houston was led by the third rated defense in the NFL as the unit allowed 310 yards per game.
