The Houston Texans officially clinched their playoff spot with Saturday's 20-16 road victory against the Los Angeles Chargers. Prior to this year, they had never qualified for the playoffs in three consecutive seasons.
With the Texans, Chargers, and Buffalo Bills all sitting at 11-5, it's the Texans who currently find themselves in the top Wild Card spot due to their head-to-head sweep over the other two teams.
There is still a simple path for the Texans to win the AFC South, with the Jacksonville Jaguars sitting just ahead of them at 12-4. For the Texans to win the division in Week 18, they need to beat the Indianapolis Colts, and the Tennessee Titans need to beat the Jaguars.
