Who do the Texans play?

According to this guy, they were supposed to play the Falcons in the Super Bowl.

From the article-

Houston general manager Rick Smith, who never receives the credit he deserves, has put together the best roster in the AFC. And it’s not only that I believe in these Texans; it’s also that I don’t believe in anyone else in the conference. The Baltimore Ravens are better on defense than they were a season ago — a season which ended with a Super Bowl title — but they’re very thin in the passing attack sans Anquan Boldin and Dennis Pitta. The New England Patriots will win a ton of games because of Tom Brady and Bill Belichick, but because of everyone else, they won’t advance in the playoffs. As I wrote last week, questions abound with the Denver Broncos. And I’m not jumping on the Cincinnati Bengals’ bandwagon with the rest of America; I just don’t believe Andy Dalton and Marvin Lewis can bring Cincy a title. Thus, Houston grabs the No. 1 seed in the AFC and makes the first trip to the Super Bowl in franchise history.

So, there you have it: Falcons vs. Texans in XLVIII. Matt Ryan and Matt Schaub flip their individual scripts — and those of their respective franchises — forever.

After reading that I am emailing my résumé to NFL.com for any openings as a sports writer and ‘prediction Specialist”
