The Houston Texans have been good enough to win regular season games. But are they finally built to win the kind of games that happen in January? Seth Payne breaks down why this offseason feels different for Houston, from the focus on offensive line depth and a more physical run game to the additions of Keylan Rutledge, Kayden McDonald, Reed Blankenship, and David Montgomery. The Texans have clearly tried to build a tougher, more versatile team that can handle cold weather, road playoff environments, and the kind of physical football that has ended their seasons in the past. Seth also looks at how the improved offensive structure could help C.J. Stroud stop playing sped up, why the run game is so important to avoiding third-and-long, and how DeMeco Ryans continues to push a defense that already has elite potential. Plus, thoughts on Azeez Al-Shaair’s comments about the standard inside the building, Nick Caley’s next step as offensive coordinator, and why this Texans team may finally be equipped to push toward the AFC Championship Game.
