Eric Winston says Texans are "shooting for the stars"

Texans right tackle Eric Winston has some big goals for the 2010 edition of the team.

Explaining that the Texans consistently broke down their end-of-practice huddle with the chant, "1-2-3 . . . Super Bowl!" during the offseason, Winston says the team has big goals this year.

"This team, in a lot of ways I think, feels that we were a playoff team last year," Winston told Texans TV, a video feature on the team's official website.  "We're not gonna take it one step at a time.  We're shooting for the stars.  We're shooting for all the way.  We know it's in Dallas this year, it's be semi-home field for us. . . .  We're gonna shoot that high."

We (at least I) think the Texans will make it to the playoffs for the first time in franchise history, a year after the team's first winning record.  To make it to the Super Bowl, however, they'll have to find a way to get past the likes of the Ravens.

We're not saying that the Texans can't, but qualifying for the postseason is one thing.  Advancing through multiple rounds is quite another.
