UPDATE: The Texans have brought Darius Walker back into the fold. He signed to the practice squad today. Here’s the article from the official site. Not surprisingly, Ahman Green is headed for injured reserve. He sprained his left knee against Cleveland, the same knee that gave him trouble all last season. Rick Smith was smart [...]

Regarding the Vikings and their chances to win the NFC North: “Adrian Peterson is leading the charge on the ground, and Gus Frerotte is studying the ship.” I can’t wait to hear what he has to say about the Texans next week. Last season, Emmitt referred to the Texans as a “formable pornponent,” so who [...]
Defensive end Anthony Weaver… he of the bazillion-dollar contract. In his Houston Texans career, from 2006 to present day: 2 interceptions 1 sack I invite you to process that information and tell me how it doesn’t end in tears.

My god that was about the ugliest game I’ve ever seen in my life. To get their first road victory in over a calendar year, the Texans literally had to find the Bizarro World version of themselves, the Cleveland Texa– er, Browns. In the end, both Cleveland quarterbacks did their best Sage Rosenfels impersonations, and [...]
We all knew Stevie Wonder was a fantastic RB, and that he appears to be our back of the future. It kind of snuck up on me that he was actually as good as he is. He’s the #3 back in the AFC in rushing yards, trailing only Thomas Jones and fellow rookie Chris Johnson… [...]

Another close loss that never felt as close as it was. Yeah, the Texans hung tough with the Colts in a game pretty much everyone expected them to get blown out in. But so what. Are you excited that we didn’t get run out of the building? Yeah, neither am I. From the files of [...]

Houston @ Indianapolis Let’s see… Sage is the quarterback, our secondary is still getting shredded against a quickly-improving Colts team led by a certain pretty decent quarterback, Peyton Manning. Oh, and it’s a road game. Even the optimistic side of me can’t come up with a single reason we win this game. LOSS Houston @ [...]
Demps has fallen out of favor – and completely off the depth chart – in recent weeks. We all know what he accomplished last year… but this season has gone from bad to worse for Demps, who earlier in the season lost his starting job to veteran free agent acquisition Eugene Wilson. Demps continued to [...]
