Houston is a good QB away from being SB contenders. Carr was pretty much the primary reason anyone was scared of the Raiders. Raiders are improving, but still have work to do especially on defense. Houston literally needs one player.

Yes...really.
Oakland won 12 games in what was arguably the best division in football. That wasn't ONLY Derek Carr, that was a complete team effort.
Yes they have holes on defense, but no team other than maybe the Pats can claim not to have deficiencies on parts of their team.
Oakland is much more complete on offense and lags a bit when it comes to the other side of the ball ...this season anyhow. Add JJ Watt back to the Texans and it changes things again, but the fact is he isnt there right now.
