With the Ravens, Jets, Patriots, and Chargers in the AFC, and the Cowboys, Packers, Saints, and 49ers in the NFC, it will be hard for any team to repeat.

This is the best the Texans have been in their franchise history. They have proven they can beat the Colts and will do anything to beat them in the division.
