What are the odds? 100 to 1? I'd put a $1 on the Texans.....

Did you see Solomon's article at Chron.com? He discusses the playoff chances:

Even with where the Texans are, a playoff season is possible. The website makenflplayoffs.com puts their chances at achieving that goal at 12.4 percent....................

Should the Texans go 9-0 the rest of the way, they would be a virtual lock to claim a playoff spot. Even if they lost only one game, they would have better than a 99 percent chance of qualifying for the postseason.

Two losses, and their mathematical chance drops to 84 percent.

Three losses? Forget about it.
