HOUSTON – Coming into the season, the Houston Texans fans had expectations that the team could win at least five to six games. It all depended on how the team could adjust to a new leader in head coach Lovie Smith, the new offensive coordinator in Pep Hamilton, quarterback Davis Mills as the full-time starter, and rookies that would be quickly inserted into the starting lineup.
Although Houston can still reach the five-win mark, which would be one win better than the last two seasons, it won’t be easy with potential playoff teams like the Kansas City Chiefs, Miami Dolphins, Dallas Cowboys, and Tennessee Titans still on the schedule.
