The Houston Texans were one of the breakout teams in the NFL last year. They went from being one of the worst teams in the league during the season prior to making it all the way to the Divisional Round in the following campaign. Drafting CJ Stroud was one of the main reasons behind the transition as he turned in an historic rookie season.
The Texans have doubled down on their promising quarterback ahead of the 2024 NFL season, adding Stefon Diggs and Joe Mixon to his offense. This gives the franchise some of the highest expectations of any team this season, especially after a deep playoff run last year. Now that the schedule has been fully released, here's how things could play out for them.

Houston Texans predicted regular-season record
Sportskeeda's NFL Playoff Predictor expects the Houston Texans to take another massive step forward during the 2024 season. It is projecting that they will finish the year with an excellent 14-3 record, which would theoretically be good enough for the second seed in the AFC for the NFL Playoffs.
While this may have seemed like an absolute long shot for the franchise a couple of years ago, the expectations appear to be potentially realistic. If CJ Stroud can continue progressing, and paired with several significant additions to their roster during the offseasn, it's not crazy to think that the Texans could be one of the best overall teams in the NFL.
