The Houston Texans have finally managed to avoid a losing season. This years .500 season resulted in a last place finished in their division with the three other teams (Colts, Jags and Titans) all heading for the playoffs.
Their new signal caller Schaub played good when he was healty and the backup Rosenfels played good when Schaub was injured (which he seemed to be quite often).
After taking care of the defense their last two drafts (Okoye and Mario Williams. Williams has, in case anybody missed it, been really good this season and everybody who killed the Texans after selecting him first in 2006 better start rethinking that....) the texans now need to start thinking offense. Last offseason they signed Ahmad Green to a long term contract and he hasn't done anything extraordinary and Ron Dayne isn't all that good either. I would not be the least surprised to see them pick a RB in the first round. How does Jonathan Stewart sound?
They might also want to find a WR to play opposite of Andre Johnson so that their QB's get someone to throw the ball to.

Help For Garrard?
I am really impressed with the Jaguars this season. They have two good lines, just see how they manhandled the Steelers in Pittsburgh a few weeks back, and two good running backs in Jones-Drew and Taylor (Who should have been voted to the Pro Bowl instead of Addai.).
Their Quarterback Garrard has also been splendid in his playing, making good decisions and hardly turning the ball over at all. What makes this even more impressive is that the Jaguars numner 1 reciever is Dennis Northcutt. How can anyone play as good as Garrard has done without having any good recievers? My guess is that Jacksonville will see to that he gets a few better targets to next year, but whether they do it through the draft or via free agency remains to be seen.
Another weak point for the jags is that they sometimes gives up big pass plays way to easy. Look for them to try to upgrade their secondary during the draft.
Now let's see if the Jaguars can beat the Steelers in Pittsburgh in the playoffs as well...
