The Houston Texans were able to get a badly-needed win over the Indianapolis Colts this past Thursday, ensuring their leadership in the AFC South for now. This game was pivotal to win as if there were tiebreaker implications down the stretch, having dropped the series would’ve put the Colts at an advantage.
The race is still tight for the division and it appears that it’s going to be between the Houston Texans, Colts and Tennessee Titans, who had an impressive 42-20 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, a division rival, yesterday.
The Houston Texans are in control of their destiny and outside of the game against the New England Patriots this Sunday, it’s very possible that they could run the table for the rest of the way but that’s why you play the games.
