Texans push toward the playoffs after a key rise in the latest NFL rankings

The Houston Texans are deseprate to return to the Playoffs for the third straight season. The Battle Red will bring a 6-5 record into their matchup on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts. Many things have improved for this team throughout the year, but the Texans have still faced its share of bad news.

When fans heard about C.J. Stroud’s injury, not many people had faith that Davis Mills could carry this team (I was one of those). I’m happy to admit I was wrong; despite some challenges, Mills has proven to be a reliable option. Still, it would be unfair to credit the Texans' recent momentum without highlighting the defense: Calen Bullock, Danielle Hunter, and Will Anderson Jr.
