The strongest Texans lineup: 2010s

Drafting the top-rated player at every position from the 2010s Texans board gives a team rating of 80.9 ā€” good for an expected 10-7 season in the game, just short of the 88 team rating needed for a shot at 17-0. Against the 16-0 2007 Patriots in Boss mode, that five would win about 2.8% of the time. The thinnest Texans board is the 2000s (78.2).
