"After a massive Sunday Night Football win over the Chiefs, the Texans jumped into the seventh slot. After starting 0-3, they've stormed back to win their last 10 and are undefeated in their last five. In that win streak, they took down the Jaguars, Bills, Colts, and Chiefs, all high-quality wins. They also lost by three to Denver while Davis Mills started under center."
"The Texans are winning for a reason. They have the best defense in football, allowing just 16 points per game. Will Anderson and Danielle Hunter are one of the best duos in football off the edge, and the defensive backfield is strong. Derek Stingley is one of the best in football, while Kamari Lassiter and Jalen Pitre excel in their roles."
The New England Patriots currently occupy the No. 2 seed and could face the No. 7 seed if they miss a first-round bye. The Houston Texans rallied from an 0-3 start to win ten straight games, recording high-quality victories over the Jaguars, Bills, Colts, and Chiefs while their five losses came against playoff teams. Houston ranks third in pass defense and fifth against the run, allowing just 16 points per game. Edge duo Will Anderson and Danielle Hunter provide consistent pressure, and the secondary features Derek Stingley, Kamari Lassiter, and Jalen Pitre. The Texans project as strong AFC South contenders with elite defensive reliability.
