It's a shame that this game will go out to much of the country (that's why Nantz and Romo are doing it) when the Texans have almost nothing to play for. I hope the Texans treat it like a preseason game. The starters make token appearances then let the backups get in their development time. Anyone who needs to nurse an injury gets held out.

The focus needs to be next week, not this one, and that means being as healthy as possible for the Wild Card game.

Interestingly, I think the Titans are a better team right now than the Steelers and will likely give KC a harder time.

For the Raiders to make the playoffs, they will need to win their game, have Indy win their game and then have the Titans and Steelers lose. They needed four games to go their way last week and if that happens a second week in a row, Las Vegas may be the perfect home for them.

I agree with all of this except one thing.

I don't care if the rest of the country sees us lay an egg. Who cares what they think?
