DeMeco Ryans may have larger goals, but he won’t share them with the general public.
Do the Houston Texans have a goal of winning the AFC South?
“Our vision is winning the day and winning against whoever our opponent is that week,” Ryans told reporters Nov. 20.
The Texans will have an inside track to winning the division Sunday at 12:00 p.m. Central Time from NRG Stadium as the reigning Jacksonville Jaguars visit. The Texans already beat Jacksonville in Week 3, and a win would deliver a series sweep. The Texans would improve to 7-4, drop the Jaguars to 7-4, but maintain a tiebreaker that would keep Houston ahead should they finish with the same record.
Houston’s 37-17 victory at EverBank Field was Ryans’ first career win. As sweet as it was, Ryans won’t overlook the Jaguars.
“Each game is different,” Ryans said. “It doesn’t matter what happened in our first game versus Jacksonville — it really doesn’t matter. They’ve grown, they’ve changed over the past few weeks, and we have as well, so each game I take it as it’s a new game, it’s a new approach each and every time we play an opponent.”
Last year the Jaguars dusted the Texans 31-3 en route to claiming the AFC South in a Week 18 tilt with the Tennessee Titans.
