Anyway, wins talk, everything else walks--we're 6-6 because we have a bad TO ratio, couldn't hold some late leads, and have trouble on 3rd-and-short at crucial moments. No one to blame but our selves--if we take care of our own house, our record will improve.

(I'm not saying anyone disagrees with that, just that it's hard for me to see much in this strength of schedule thing.)

I would attribute some of the Texans' strength of schedule to their number of losses, but as a .500 team, I think you can toss that out. Their is no doubt that we have had the hardest schedule in the NFL (next to the Saints) to this point if you look at who we've lost to and where. That said, we still have a ways to go, and must address the problems you mentioned.
