Your 2016 Houston Texans are the champions of the AFC South. That’s fun to type regardless, but I mention it here because it’s relevant to which teams they’ll face in 2017. Although we won’t know when the Texans will play each of the thirteen (13) teams on the slate for 2017 until the NFL offically releases its schedule in April (usually shortly before the draft), we do know which teams they’ll be playing.
With one exception. We won’t know which team—the Kansas City Chiefs or the Oakland Raiders—wins the AFC West until Sunday evening, so that issue will remain open for another few days.
