The 2015 Houston Texans season was the franchise's 14th season in the National Football League and the second under head coach Bill O'Brien.
This season was the first since 2002 Andre Johnson was not on the opening day roster.
Houston started the season going into their bye week at 3–5, including blowout losses to the Atlanta Falcons (21–48) and against the Miami Dolphins (26–44). However, the Texans had a surge in the second half of the season, going 6–2 after the bye. The 2015 season marked the first time the Texans beat the Colts in Indianapolis, helped in part by third–string quarterback Brandon Weeden.[1] The Texans matched their win total from the 2014 season, finishing 9–7, and gained their first division title and postseason trip since 2012, but were shutout, 30–0, at home by the Kansas City Chiefs in the Wild Card round.
The 2015 Houston Texans were featured on the HBO documentary series Hard Knocks.[2]
