The Houston Texans were in troll mode after watching the Dallas Cowboys get booted out of the playoffs with a surprising and embarrassing loss to the Green Bay Packers.
The loss leaves Dallas, who went into the game as strong 7.5-point favorites, as the first No. 2 seed to drop a game to a No. 7 seed since the playoffs changed format in 2020. The writing was on the wall pretty early as they were already down 27-0 in the first half, with Dak Prescott throwing two INTs, including a crucial pick-six.
The game ended with a 48-32 scoreline that underlined just how prepared Green Bay was for the Dallas defense. And Mike McCarthy’s job is now thought to be in jeopardy.
Meanwhile, the Texans are headed to the divisional round after a dominant 45-14 win over the Cleveland Browns.
Rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud will get to put his skill on display for at least one more game, with Houston’s opponents yet to be decided. And they will be over the moon after winning a playoff game with a first-year QB and a first-year coach in what has been an incredible campaign.
Following Dallas’ loss, Houston’s social media admin took to X to aim a savage two-word shot at their Texas neighbors.

The Texans are more than satisfied with being Texas’ team.
The Cowboys can be America’s Team all they want, but their season is over. The Texans, on the other hand, still have a chance to make history.
