Thank the Ghost of Christmas Past that the Houston Texans clinched the AFC South two weeks ago.

They're nowhere near being a team capable of clinching a division title right now.

Behind Lamar Jackson's record-setting night, the Baltimore Ravens bested the Texans 31-2 on Christmas Day, where most of the conversation was built around Beyoncé's halftime performance.

That was the most life Houston had all afternoon following a performance to forget. It needs to be one before the team hits the road for Week 18.

"Probably one of my worst games of my whole career. Just came out flat," Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud said. "Didn't have any energy. Didn't lead the offense the way I should have. Always got to look at myself in the mirror and be honest with myself and not good enough today. You know, it is what it is. Can't hang my head down, but just got to keep going."

Here's everything to know immediately after Wednesday's ba-humbug of a performance at NRG Stadium for the final time in front of a hometown crowd this season.

A'Darius Washington stopped Joe Mixon at the 1-yard line. After securing a safety in the second quarter, the Texans put together their best drive of the day. They even got a fresh set of downs after a questionable pass interference penalty.

The Texans reached Baltimore's 4-yard line but could not punch it in. After an incomplete pass on third down, head coach DeMeco Ryans opted to keep kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn on the sidelines. The pass couldn't reach the end zone and the Ravens scored on the ensuing drive.

Houston never came close to the end zone after that play.

Houston hits the road one final time in the regular season for an AFC South battle with the Tennessee Titans. With a victory, the Texans would finish with a 5-1 record in the division for 2024. Kickoff from Nissan Stadium has yet to be determined as of this time.
