NFL.com and ESPN have released their analysts predictions, and as you might expect, sleeper hangover syndrome has taken over the head of anyone thinking about taking the Texans to do anything this year. Six out of the 16 ESPN experts have picked the Texans to make the playoffs, none of them to win the AFC South. Gil Brandt picked the Texans to win the AFC South, and is one the three (out of seven) NFL.com experts to pick the Texans to make the playoffs.
If you're looking for a bandwagon team, look no further than Green Bay, who made the Super Bowl in all seven of the NFL.com ballots and nine of the 16 ESPN ballots.
