That said, I fully expect Houston to be back in playoff contention this year. Flanked by all the talent he's gathered this offseason, O'Brien will have an Andy Reid-like effect on the Texans. With that pass rush and a healthy return from running back Arian Foster, I could easily see the Texans going 4-2 (at minimum) in the AFC South. Add in a 5-5 record outside the division, and you're in the wild-card conversation. This is very feasible to achieve, especially given the watered-down competition in their division -- and in the conference as a whole.
