Are The Houston Texans Super Bowl Bound?

They dissect Stroud's incredible Rookie year and Y2 outlook. They also discuss the strategic move that sent shockwaves across the league - how the Stefon Diggs trade became the catalyst for the Texans’ Super Bowl run + much more.

Dynasty would be nice. But I'll take their first ever Super Bowl appearance. The city would lose its mind.

[@jonathanjohnson7384]

All of Texas would lose their minds

[@KingBob1723]

@@jonathanjohnson7384because that would mean the Texans have more appearances than the cowboys the past 3 decades

*Super Bowl win. An appearance is not enough.

It’s so weird being a lifelong Texans fan who was at the first game. This is the first time they put it all together. They are legit!

I think stefon diggs is gonna come in and understand the process and go off this season because he’s a very good veteran

[@EclipseStorm923]

How cool would a Packers vs Texans super bowl be?

[@Choclate_Chip_Hoochie]

The Packers are legit to especially since them & maybe the Lions are the only teams im sold on, the 49ers did not look like the same 49ers of past

[@marshallwhitley82]

I’ll be happy with the Texans Vs anybody

Not as cool as a cowboys Texans

Caserio took a lot of heat for totally stripping the team down when it was loaded with bad contracts and massive dead money from Bill O'Brien...took two years to ditch all that crap and National pundits all kicked him and accused him of an incoherent plan. Caserio built the back end of the roster first with short term contracts for Vets and after the Watson trade kicked in he started to backfill those Vets with young drafted players. There are a few cornnerstone positions in the NFL. QB, LT, DE, CB and WR1. Texans have every single cornerstone player as a Caserio draft pick or a Pro Bowler...and to be emphasized, rookies on their rookie deals. Stroud, Tunsil, Stingley, Anderson Jr, Nico Collins and Tank Dell all on rookie deals except for Tunsil, who is a Pro Bowl LT. Bringing in an elite edge rusher to pair with Anderson, watching #48 Christian Harris evolving into a superstar LB just adds to the intrigue. Texans still have over 20 mil cap space, two 2nd round picks, a 3rd, two 4ths, and several back end picks so Nick probably moves up in this draft again for a key position. Texans in position to take on another FA vet, make a trade for a player or just move up in the draft when they get an oportunity. You couldn't write a better script for the Texans fans in 2024.

Couldn’t have said it any better 🤘🏿

[@Wellplayed1304]

The coaching staff is young and relate very well with the players.

[@PocketPresenceHQ]

100%

[@pattibarnett1142]

Speaking about coaches who are authoritarian, stubborn and don't consider the strong points and comfort of their players, the first coach I thought about was Broncos' Sean Payton. What an ugly year they had last year. I feel sorry for any quarterback he recruits, expecially if it's a rookie acquired in the draft.

[@JCHARLES99]

The draft is also looking great for the future of the TEXANS due to the depth of players available

[@Chuy-un4uk]

Yessir much respect to Kurt. He studied the sqaud and actually knows ball.

[@renerosales2924]

I seen the Rockets win championships, I seen Astros win championships, it feels like our time Texans

[@magnetik5348]

I don't think many QB's can sit at the podium post game and say "Steph Curry doesn't stop shooting" right after throwing 3 INTs. They saw early on freeing CJ was a good idea.

[@_Wrd2]

The afc south isn’t great but the Texans schedule is by no means easy. They play the cowboys, chiefs, ravens, lions, packers etc. Most weeks are gonna be a dog fight for them but they have the team to win those

[@rowansmith54]

There were many plays that CJ made outside of the called play by Slowik. In other words, CJ made Slowik look good at times. I really don't think he would make a good head coach. Too inexperienced at OC. If he is wise , he will stay with Demeco. Dance with the one that brought ya.

[@Glatisant_galla]

Definitely could be. That AFC is so loaded though. And there’s so much parity in the NFL. They could be Super Bowl contenders or last jn their division next season just depending on the luck of health.

[@killaxgod239]

Tbh I think we should draft a rb like Johnathan brooks or grab Dalvin Cook just for Insurance and depth. Also add Justin Simmons and Draft Koolaid. I’m All For it

[@markkline1077]

Seems like every other division in the nfl has at least 2 teams that won the superbowl except for AFC south so maybe this year one of them besidea the colt win, too hard to say for this year with many other great teams in the nfl

[@mgentles3]

This is the system Gary Kubiak ran in Houston. DeMeco Ryans played in this system when he was drafted by the Texans. Kyle Shanahan was OC for the team for a time. Yes, Gary learned from Mike Shanahan in Denver, but this team isn't borrowed from San Francisco. The Texans, until 2014 and the disaster that was Bill O'Brien, played this type of offense and defense. There have been years when all they needed was an outstanding QB and instead had a mediocre one in Matt Schaub. Now it has finally come together from the top down. I don't know how long it will take...how many free agencies, how many drafts...but I know the entire operation is in go mode and I hope they do well even though the first place schedule will be a grueling test. We're not a complete team yet. We have holes at DT and DB. Our o-line needs a MASH unit on the sideline. The starters didn't play one snap together last season. But the arrow is definitely pointing up.

[@nick-rp2do]

Let's put the brakes on all this dynasty talk. The Texans have gotten measurelby better but still have to do it on the field.

Commanders have a chance to mimic this situation…that’s all I’m gonna say. HTTC

[@projectdelta7286]

The colts literally almost beat the texans with a backup QB…

[@Chill.ill665]

@@projectdelta7286 luck is a thing. And colts are divisional so they built their mids defense to counter the Texans. Colts are a solid team too but I think got lucky keep on that game close. They are a few pieces away from being a playoff team for sure. They’re owner also works against them. Irsay Like having Snyder or tepper unfortunately

Simple answer........NO. Too many good teams in the AFC. If they were in the NFC they'd have a legit chance.
