Don’t look now, but the Houston Texans are officially the team nobody wants to see in January. After stumbling out of the gate with a nightmare 0-3 start, DeMeco Ryans’ squad has completed the ultimate turnaround.
With a gritty 20-16 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Saturday at SoFi Stadium, the Texans punched their ticket to the postseason, becoming the first team to make the playoffs after starting 0-3 since… well, the Texans in 2018.
As NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo noted, only five teams have pulled off this feat since the field expanded in 1990. Houston now owns two of those spots.
Saturday’s win was a testament to their resilience. C.J. Stroud wasted no time lighting up the scoreboard, connecting with rookie sensation Jayden Higgins for a 75-yard touchdown on the opening drive. Stroud wasn’t done there, finding fellow rookie Jaylin Noel for a 43-yard strike shortly after to put Houston up early.
