Texans bring some holiday cheer and beat the Titans.

These final few games of the 2022 season for the Houston Texans are going to be a roller coaster emotionally. On the one hand, the final three games are all against hated divisional foes — Tennessee, Jacksonville, and Indianapolis — so naturally, it's fine to beat them. On the other hand, there is a the small matter of losses greasing the skids for the number one overall pick in this spring's draft.

So, yes, the Texans 19-14 win over the Tennessee Titans is a complicated thing. On the one hand, contributing to the Titans' hilarious plunge from division leader to also ran is a LOT of fun. On the other hand, while the Texans still have the inside track to the No. 1 overall pick, things are much tighter now, with the Texans at 2-12-1 and the Bears, who beat the Texans in Week 3, at 3-12.

For now, we celebrate the holiday season and savor the victory. Unfortunately, these don't come along often.

It wasn't just the Texans game that was played in arctic conditions either. The early window games that had temperatures at kickoff well below freezing were Cleveland, Baltimore, Chicago, Kansas City and New England. Advantage, Snow Miser!This has a dual meaning as it applies to the Texans' overall 2022 season record and their success, or lack thereof, against Titans running back Derrick Henry.
