C.J. Stroud and the Texans now are looking to a Super Bowl run
The 2023 season for the Houston Texans was better than expected. The team was never thought of as a favorite before the start of the year, but the rookie season of C. J. Stroud catapulted them to the AFC South title and a playoff win over the Cleveland Browns. They hope to go one step further now in 2024.

Houston Texans 2024 Season Outlook
The sky is the limit for DeMeco Ryans' team. Houston was expected to be one of the worst teams in the league during the 2023 season, but on the back of a fantastic rookie season for C. J. Stroud, they not only were able to make the playoffs. They also won the division and won a postseason game, before ultimately losing out to Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens.

Expectations are going to be even higher now. While they didn't have a first-round pick available, they were able to get some good values in the 2024 draft – but more importantly, they bolstered their wide receiver group even more with the addition of Stefon Diggs via a trade with the Buffalo Bills.
On the defense, Will Anderson Jr. and Derek Stingley compose the core – both were top three picks in the previous two rounds and quickly became instrumental to the group. Anderson needs to have at least 10 sacks for Houston to become a true competitor at the top of the conference.
At the end of the day, though, all eyes will be on C. J. Stroud. The quarterback is not expected to be learning much more in 2024 – he's already touted as an MVP candidate, and with good reason. This is a team that needs to take the next step and become a true competitor.

About the author
Henrique Bulio
Henrique Bulio is an NFL and College Football journalist at Sportskeeda and the Editor-in-Chief of Pro Football Brasil. He has a total 13 years of experience working in American Football, and playing quarterback at an amateur level in Brazil has given him a unique perspective of the game.
Henrique follows the Philadelphia Eagles closely due to Michael Vick's historic performance on MNF against the Washington Commanders in 2010. His all-time favorite player is Ed Reed; he believes that Reed is the greatest safety to ever play the game. Bill Belichick gets the nod as Henrique's favorite coach for coaching the Patriots to glory over two decades.
If Henrique were to be able to go back in time and watch one game, it would be Super Bowl XLIX, where the Patriots and the Seahawks played a complete, back-and-forth game that concluded with one of the biggest talking points in NFL history.
Technical deep dives are Henrique’s specialty, and he ensures never to use misleading words in his articles, since he himself consumes a lot of information off the web. He has had the privilege of interviewing Cairo Santos, Lamar Jackson, Jim Harbaugh, Sean McDermott, Bruce Arians, Matt LaFleur, among others.
Aside from football, Henrique likes to play poker and Counter-Strike.
