Posted in The Texans will be playing at home yet again against their rival Indianapolis Colts in Week One of the regular season. Of course, the Texans will face their division rivals twice in the regular season. The Texans will tout against the NFC South (Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and New Orleans Saints) for the first time in a long time during the regular season. On the other hand, the Texans will familiarly meet the Miami Dolphins, yet again. The Texans will also have another shot at the four AFC South teams: the Baltimore Ravens, the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Cincinnati Bengals and the Cleveland Browns.
