Houston or Dallas

Who is a better team at this point?

Dallas - 3 wins against horrible teams
- 2 losses against teams that are a total of 11-1

Houston - 2 wins against horrible teams, 1 solid win
- 2 losses against decent teams, 1 bad loss

Houston. Not even close. Schaub better than Romo and the defense is getting better every week.

Dallas 3 wins are against teams with a combined 3-14 record.

At least Houston just beat a division leader on the road. And if not for 2 fumbles on the 1 yard line each time could be 5-1.

agree

Houston seems to be getting better and Dallas seems to get deeper into the coaching "problem"

I would argue Houston loss to Arizona would = Dallas win to Chiefs, but it was a "W", and that is more important.

Alot more positive vibes in the Houston camp than the Dallas camp.

Like a yoyo here lately though. Waiting to see if they can put a few together. But encouraged for now after Cincy.

Yeah, don't want to jump the gun after one big win, but like you said, atleast they have beaten someone. On the flip side, Dallas has lost to some pretty good teams.

Defense edge slightly goes to Houston right now.
Passing edge goes to Houston.
Running edge goes heavily towards Dallas.

I'd say right now, Houston is better. But I also venture out and say that neither makes the playoffs?

and if dallas did this or that they could have easily beat giants/denver / both

truth is i haven't seen enough of the texans to comment, but I do know that dallas has not played 1 good game yet this season. We will see what we get coming out of this bye though so this question might be better answered after next week.

don't think texan defense is better than dallas D either

Dallas took a huge leap in this discussion, although Houston had a nice win agianst a decent team too.
