Right on cue, Ahman. Green practiced today, but only with the scout team. I take that to mean he’s not likely to be active, which (I can’t believe I’m saying this) is bad for the Texans. He and Slaton were really getting it done back there… but more importantly – Green’s a terrific blocker. Now [...]
…like we all know he will. Any second. It could be happening right now. Darius Walker is gone. Chris Taylor – gone. Who’s #2 in the 1-2 punch if when Green gets hurt? Many people might say – just give Steve Slaton a full load and see what the kid can do. I don’t think [...]
TheIronDuke over at TexansTalk.com attended a sponsored event at Reliant Stadium yesterday. He was able to take pictures of not only player lockers, but he and his friend got some great shots of the charts, dry-erase boards, and other materials the Texans use for scheming, motivation, etc. Very cool, inside stuff here. Definitely worth your [...]

[table=34] Simply put, this little comparison isn’t as compelling as last year’s Mario vs. Reggie vs. Vince, so I’m not giving it as much attention… but I figure I’ll stick with it anyway. Bush clearly had the better day in week 6, but at this point there’s no doubt in my mind (and probably not [...]

35-6. The largest margin of victory in team history also gave the franchise its first ever three game winning streak. This is just about the best thing that could have happened to this team going into next week’s tough road trip to Minnesota. The Texans dominated, and yeah – they should have. The Bengals are [...]
This picture comes from the always-fantastic IlliniJen over at TexansTalk.com, and her ever-sharp and biting wit.

Hm. After releasing Darius Walker to make room on the roster for practice squad RB Ryan Moats, the Texans also released RB Chris Taylor, who was recently put on Injured Reserved. I expect the Texans will once again sign Walker to the practice squad early this week assuming he clears waivers… but I was surprised [...]
3. So simple, so short… so elusive. In roughly 6.5 seasons of play – totaling 102 games, the Texans, incredibly, have never had a three-game winning streak. That is simply astounding. 102 games, countless turnovers, bad-bounces, lucky breaks, good days, bad days, up days, down days – and not a single time could this franchise [...]
The team released Walker today… again. At some point he just has to throw his hands up and tell them to stick it, right? I mean – as long as he can find another job somewhere else. The Texans put him on waivers in favor of recent practice squad signing Ryan Moats. Hm, let’s see [...]
When the news came out earlier today that an unnamed Houston Texan had tested positive for a banned substance, fear gripped me. I figured it would be a lineman… would it be Mario? Eric Winston? That would have crushed my world… but no… it turned out to be long-snapper Bryan “I have one freaking job [...]
