If the Houston Texans are going to make the playoffs in 2011, they're going to have to do it with the tenth hardest schedule in the league. Hopefully, the team and the fans won't panic if they get off to a rough start, as games against the Colts, Saints, and Steelers would be rough for anyone. Away to Miami isn't exactly a picnic either. Houston could very well start the year 0-4 while actually looking like a pretty decent team.
