Can the Houston Texans make the NFL Playoffs in 2006?

I'll go out on a limb here - not only can they, but they will.  Why??\n1.  An offensive-minded coach\n2.  Reggie Bush\n3.  David Carr, Andre Johnson, Eric Moulds.  At the end of the season, add up the numbers for these three, and I'll bet money you can't find another threesome in the NFL with better numbers.\n\nFor the regular season, I'm predicting 11-5.  We win the AFC South, but lose the AFC title game.

The Texans have a good all around RB in\nDominack Davis and their backup, Vernon Wells, is not that bad. Also the Texans just signed David Carr to a big deal.  What they need is a linemen. I'm from New York so I don't watch Texan's games much but when I did see them their Offensive line was dredful. The Texans should do this (and Im not just saying this because I'm from New York). They should trade their pick to the Jets and get the Jet's first pick and another pick. Assuming that Vince Young, Matt Leinart, and Reggie Bush go 1st 2nd 3rd that will leave the Texans with D'Brickashaw Fergueson. That's what they REALLY need. But... Reggie Bush is too hyped up to pass on so the Texans will choose Bush.

Check this homie. I love H-Town I was from H- town. But for Houston football and basketball they should chill and get reggie and a lottery pick. So that they can rebuild for the 2006 season. Tell me i'm right. Before i die i want to at least Houston win a Super Bowl, W.S. and another NBA Champoinship.

Good for them...it's about time they have a powerhouse team after year after year of bad teams and no promising playoff runs.  They still have to get by the Pats though, who I think should be the favorite entering the playoffs.

If they can get consistently good performances from all their players, they might just wrestle that 8th seed away from other teams. But it really won't make a difference if they make the playoffs or not because they will be facing off against either Dallas or San Antonio and they have no chance of beating those teams. They will win at most 1 game in the playoffs if they make it.

I think the Texans will have their best season yet. With the acquisitions of Flannagan (C) and Moulds (WR) and after the draft Heisman winner Reggie Bush the Texans look good on paper. David Carr is the only question mark but with a seasoned OL and how it stands right now with a solid back in Dominck Davis and perhaps Reggie Bush alot of pressure will be taken off of him. And look at the division they are in its pretty weak with the exception of the Colts, the titans are going to lose McNair and Jacksonville has never been good. With all the accusations and what seems to be a pretty good draft coming their way look for Houston to go 8-8 or 9-7.

I believe they have a very good chance. They were dominating the first part of the season with some excellent pitching and offense and defense. And don't worry, everybody has a slump, they bounce right back and get into the flow of things. So, yes, I believe they will make it int othe playoffs.

They have a good chance at making the playoffs. I don't think they will go very far. They have a good team ,but they would have to beat better ones. Never know for sure.\nT he best teams don't always win.

Dolphins have only had 1 season where they werent 500 in the last 15 years.  and have only missed the [playoffs 3 times so I think they will either this year or next year.

I think he can.  I mean it's ridiculous to think that the Texans won't improve there O-line in the rest of the draft and through free agency and trades.  He may not take off right away but in two or three years, I think he'll be someone were all talking about.

I think the Cowboys will make the playoffs as long as Romo doesn't screw it up.\n\nFor more on the Cowboys and the NFL, check this site out.  http://factipedia.com/sportsblogs/

The Texans are on the verge of being respectable.  One of their problems is that they play in a tough division.  They have to play Indy twice every season.  And depending on how the other teams are doing they also have to contend with Jacksonville and the Titans.\n\nI don't think David Carr is their answer.  Everyone thinks he just needs a good line and then he will blossom.  Well I have a feeling after this season we will see him leaving Houston.  He has been banged up so much that I think he is constantly thinking about the sack.  This will prevent him from being successful.\n\nReggie Bush will not be the answer either.  Houston already has a respectable RB.\n\nThe current rumor (which is probably false) is that Houston is seriously considering trading down.  They don't want to have to take Bush.  The problem is finding a partner. \n\nThe Saints won't trade up.  In fact they are looking to trade down.  The Titans and Jets are probably comfortable where they are. \n\nThe Packers could use Bush, but they are sitting pretty at number 5.  They will find a quality player to fit their many needs at this spot.\n\nSF or Oakland might be interesting positions.  Both of them could use Bush and that is not too far for Houston to fall and still pick up quality.\n\nWhat's going to happen? No one knows for sure, but I think Houston is hoping to come in 2nd in their division and maybe a chance at a Wildcard spot.

Being a HUGE Cowboys fan, I do believe they can win the Super Bowl. Now that they have OLB Bobby Carpenter, they can have a good offense and a good defense. If T.O. stifles his ego and plays the game, the Cowboys will be ridin' high this season.

You have waited for so long, why bother to give up now.\n\nI agree with you that 6-10 is for 2006, but 2007 may be wild card year for Raider and in 2008, there may be superbowl winner.
