The day after dropping the last preseason game to the Bucs, the Texans have made 20 of the 22 cuts required before 3pm tomorrow. Nothing shocking, but the Texans did let free agent acquisition and wiley veteran Keenan McCardell go. This does not come as a surprise as Keenan was injured for a lot of [...]

Yeah, I know. S-N-O-R-E. I’m not going to mess with a full recap on this one. The most significant thing about this game is that it will allow Coach Kubiak to finish roster cuts tomorrow, a day before the deadline – so Houston can continue scheming for the home opener against Kansas City. So if [...]

As expected, stud LT Charles Spencer was placed on the PUP list today, and the Texans cut WR Harry Williams and FB Patrick Pass. It’s a little surprising that Pass was cut, as there was a lot of chatter that he would stick and Jameel Cook would be the one to go. Pass had some [...]

The Texans got a jump start on the deadline by makings some roster cuts last night… they are: DL Thomas Johnson CB Derrick Roberson TE Ben Steele WR Charlie Adams QB Quinton Porter QB Bradlee Van Pelt Coach Kubiak and GM Rick Smith (pictured) will have to shave two more guys off the roster to [...]

Yeah, Cowboy fans and media LOVE to say “it’s only pre-season! We don’t care about this game! It’s no big deal!” Well, you’re right about one thing, it’s not a huge deal – but the Dallas Cowboys definitely care, and you could see it all over their faces. The truth is, Houston outplayed them overwhelmingly [...]

One moment, I was looking around my living room, saddened that I would even bother to… um… watch pre-season football coverage – and I found myself on the floor. I was on my knees, praying to my television [...]

Next week is sure to be a tough test, as the Hillbillies come to town – a team that seems to play pre-season games as if they’re the Super Bowl. Hopefully Houston fans will mix well with the Dallas fans, and none of the Hillbillies from the North will have to pull out their muskets. [...]

When’s the last time you could say that the Houston Texans scored on six consecutive possessions in a game? Unless you’re playing a video game, I’m guessing probably never. Yes, that’s based on exhaustive research. So let’s break this thing down: OFFENSE This unit looked strong. Matt Schaub was on target, completing 9 of 12 [...]

If the main goal of pre-season pro football is to escape the game without serious injury – well, off to a bad start. Starting strong safety Glenn Earl has a joint fracture in his foot which will put him on Injured Reserve, meaning he is hurt and out for the entire year. Another member of [...]

The Texans dropped a close game to the Bears 20-19 to kickoff the pre-season in front of the home fans. Houston led the the entire game up until the last minute, as the Bears kicked a field goal to take the lead. Obviously, these games are beyond meaningless… the number one priority is always to [...]
