I feel like the Falcons game is the biggest game of the season

The Texans have persevered through multiple injuries this season. We all know Arian Foster was out earlier, Mario Williams is out for the season, the best wide receiver in the NFL missed a few weeks with Andre Johnson, and now not only one QB, Matt Schaub, is done, but our backup Matt Leinart is out for the season as well.

Currently we are leading the AFC, but we are only 2 games ahead of the Titans in the division. If we BEAT the Falcons this week I think we will basically clinch the division.

After the Falcons, who is a solid football team at 8-4, we face the Bengals, Panthers, Colts, and finally the Titans.

If we beat the Falcons, all we have to do is win one between the Bengals and Panthers, and beat the Colts. If we do that, even a loss to the Titans at that point that may lead to both teams having the same record would mean that we win the AFC South, as we would have the tie breaker for most division wins.

I know we have T.J. Yates now, but I believe our offense can overcome having a rookie and provide some productive points with our running game, Andre Johnson, strong O-line play, and the tight-ends. Our offense is designed to support a quarterback. If our offense can be successful, and the defense plays as it has all season we will defeat the Falcons and in my opinion WIN THE AFC SOUTH AND GO TO THE PLAYOFFS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN FRANCHISE HISTORY!

If we make it to the playoffs, who knows what will happen...

TL;DR Falcons game is a big one, if we win this game I think we will clinch the division no matter what the Titans do
