Readers: How do you feel about the Patriots-Texans matchup?

The New England Patriots and Houston Texans are set to face off in the divisional round of the NFL playoffs on Sunday at 3 p.m., as they battle for a spot in the AFC Championship Games — and possibly, the Super Bowl.

After securing a 30-6 win against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday, the Texans will head to Gillette Stadium where they’ll take on the Patriots on Jan. 18.

The Patriots will have to bring their A-game against the Texans’ stellar defense, which takes the No. 1 spot in the NFL at 175 yards per game.
