Technically, the Houston Texans can still make the playoffs. They need a whole lot of help to get there. First things first, though: They have to beat the Baltimore Ravens this afternoon, and they have to do it with Case Keenum as their starting quarterback. Taking Baltimore down would be a tall order for the 2014 Houston Texans without having to rely on someone who wasn't on the roster a week ago. The chances for a Texans victory today are not good.

But...

Any given Sunday and all that jazz.

Wait a second...in the movie, Willie Beamen played his college ball at the University of Houston. Just like Case!

That does it. I'm convinced. You can't fight fictional coincidences. Prepare to be shocked, Ravens. Case is gonna rain heckfire down upon you.

This is your first open thread for the Week Sixteen game between your Houston Texans and the Baltimore Ravens. Comment as you see fit.
