Splitting down the middle at 3-3 might not be enough. This division sent two teams to the playoffs in 2008, and the Colts and Titans ought to be worthy enough to challenge for the playoffs again in 2009. Since it seems unlikely the division will send two wild cards, the Texans are going to need to take care of business in the AFC South to best position their postseason hopes.

I really like the way the schedule looks for them next season, at least initially. I am just hoping that they don't get a brutal September as seems to always be the case. I would be happy with 2 home and 2 away, with two of the easier games worked in there. If they could come out of september 3-1 for a change that could set them up for a very nice season.
