Default 2012 Opponents

By my shaky calculations, the Texans opponents for next year are almost determined.

Six games against divisional opponents, Indy, Tennessee and Jacksonville, home and away.

Four games against the AFC East - New England, NY Jets, Miami, Buffalo.

Two games against AFC division champions - Denver or Oakland in the AFC West and Baltimore or Pittsburgh from the AFC North.

Four games against the NFC North - Chicago, Detroit, Green Bay and Minnesota.

As a divisional champion, I'd expect we'll get a few more prime time games next year with Green Bay, Detroit and the AFC playoff teams the most likely matchups.

The schedule doesn't seem particularly tough or easy - just representative. A lot more will be determined in how the schedule is laid out.
