    Lance Z said this is the third time Texans have gone "Worst to First"

    Can someone check to make sure this is accurate?

    I only remember 2. Maybe I’m forgetting one. Besides this year it was 2018. Finished last in 2017 after DW4 tore his acl.

    Thats why football is the best. Apart from a dominating team or two the parity the sport creates is awesome for fans and every year we get a cinderella story.

    We're playing with house money boys (and girls!) nothing to lose. Nobody thought we would be here including myself so lets air this thing out and signal our arrival this playoff season.

    5 yrs, 15 yrs, "dynasty" -- I don't want to dampen anyone's enthusiasm, but ...

    Let's enjoy this season, with a HOME PLAYOFF GAME upcoming, and be optimistic for a good season next year. We need a good draft, some good moves, etc.

    They've never gone worst to first, prior to this year. Looking at the season prior to their six division titles before 2023:
    2011, they finished 3rd in the division in 2010
    (They won B2B in 2012)
    2015, they finished 2nd in the division in 2014
    (They won B2B in 2016)
    I2018, they finished 3rd in the division in 2017
    (They won B2B in 2019)

    So, no - Lance is wrong.
