A Big Thanks To The Houston Texans!

:toast: :bounce: :toast: :party: :beer:

Thanks for making the Jags top offensive playmakers non existent and controlling the pigskin for 2/3rd's of the game.

Why am I saying thanks? Pretty simple, I'm a Denver fan.
What the Texans win means?

Now all Denver has to do is win and they're in. With a Jacksonville win, Denver would have to rely on the over-the-hill division bottom feeder Oakland to win who would probaly purposely LOSE to see Denver get eliminated. However Denver hosts an obviously tough Indy opponent next weekend where they have to play damn near flawless on the defensive side to keep Indy under 25 points and take full advantage of the Colts vulnerable defense. However, thanks to Houston, they've made Denver's playoff chances blossom incredibly.

The Texans continue to be the most underrated team in the NFL.

That's just fine with me. ;-)

I doubt Manning, Harrison and Edge will even suit up, a near lock for Denver.
