Texans expected to have primetime games this season
This week’s Insider Deals are so good you’ll want all of themTexans are defending AFC South champions, have one of top quarterbacks in C.J. Stroud and have a ‘loaded’ roster that includes additions Stefon Diggs and Danielle Hunter Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud celebrates after their win against the Cleveland Browns in an NFL wild-card playoff football game Saturday, Jan. 13, 2024, in Houston.
The Texans, the talk of the NFL this offseason, are likely slated for multiple primetime games. The most frequent estimates are three to four primetime games on the Texans’ schedule. Of course, the battle for supremacy in the state of Texas will be a hot ticket. The Texans travel to face the Dallas Cowboys this season. That game includes another top quarterback matchup between Stroud and Dak Prescott, the friendly rivalry between Stroud and Cowboys edge rusher Micah Parsons and Diggs against his brother, Cowboys standout corner Trevon Diggs.
The Texans have a demanding schedule, ranked the fourth-most difficult in the NFL, after improving from 3-13-1 in 2022 to 11-8 last season. “You want it right in the middle. The thing that sucks is sometimes you get a bye week right after Week 4. It’s early and then you have a long stretch to the end of the season. Everyone wants it in the middle. That way, you can have a nice break and go on that run to make it into the playoffs.”
In the wake of a major spending spree for a franchise that went 11-8 last season with one playoff victory in a dramatic turnaround from a team that went a combined 11-38-1 over the previous three seasons, a lot is expected from a team that has rapidly emerged as a trendy Super Bowl contender as is embracing the heightened outlook.
The Texans got A grades for working conditions at NRG Stadium, coaching and ownership in the annual NFL Players Association players poll.“I think we’re the same,” Cal McNair said. “We’re hard working. We’re trying to make good decisions every day and let that speak for itself. If people want to feel one way or the other, they’re certainly free to do that.”
