Fantasy Football = Offense (well mostly).

Fantasy Football drafts are during preseason.

Texans have 3 players who are top 5 at their position ( well at least one could argue that Slaton is that good.). When has a that happened?

And like Keith, IMO this team will live and die by the defense.

NFLn is doing it's 32 teams in 32 days. Houston was voted on by the NFL.com fans as the 22nd team. Interesting how bad we are perceived nationally.

Just consider the source. We don't have enough history to be loved or hated outside of Houston. Since we are not a top team I doubt the majority of non-Houstonians even bothers ranking the Texans.

.........If they even think of us at all. But I completely agree it will be how well Matt Shaub stays healthy, and how much better the defense shuts the opposing offense down that will make us or break us for the playoffs this year. Glass-half-fuller says we make the playoffs.
