Houston Texans History and Information
The Houston Texans are a National Football League team based in Houston, Texas. The Texans are a member of the AFC South division. The city's previous franchise, the Houston Oilers, moved to Nashville, Tennessee in 1997 and changed their name to the Tennessee Titans.
The Houston Texans made NFL history by becoming the first expansion team to win consecutive season openers: first in 2002, defeating its established NFC in-state rival Dallas Cowboys in its first regular season game by a score of 19-10; then in 2003, beating the Miami Dolphins. In 2004, the Texans were the host team for Super Bowl XXXVIII.
The team has steadily improved with each successive season with a record of 4-12 in its first season, 5-11 in 2003, and 7-9 in 2004. In 2004, they cleared some major hurdles and won two consecutives games twice in that season after failing to do so in either 2002 or 2003. The team could have won three in a row to end the season, but they were stymied by the Cleveland Browns. During one notable series in 2004, the Houston Texans won several competitions against the Tennessee Titans (the previous Houston franchise) and the Jacksonville Jaguars. As of mid-2005, they have not yet won a game against the Indianapolis Colts (a bellweather of the AFC South conference).
Texans fans seem — on balance — pleased with the progress made so far, even though they booed the team for its dreadful performance in the aforementioned Browns game that ended the 2004 season. Fans expect the Texans will break .500 in 2005.
