Bill O'Brien: Texans 'Know' They Must Play Better Despite Clinching AFC South

Houston Texans head coach Bill O'Brien remains unsatisfied even though his team clinched the AFC South title with Saturday's 23-20 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

"We know we have to play a lot better," O'Brien told reporters after the game.

Houston prevailed despite gaining only 229 yards and turning the ball over twice.

The Texans won 11 games and the division in 2018, and their path back to the playoffs became a lot easier in August with Andrew Luck's sudden retirement. Anything less than a successful defense of their division crown would've been a disappointment.
