While doing all the daily research and double-checking for the Mock Draft Tracker, it’s impossible to not notice the prevailing opinions of the prognosticators who obviously aren’t all Texans fans/put very little effort into dissecting the team’s needs and tendencies. Of course, that’s part of a larger statement to which we all agree, which is: [...]
Antonio Gates is injured (again), and that has opened up a window for first alternate Owen Daniels to go to his first ever Pro Bowl! This is great news for Daniels, and hopefully outside of Houston it won’t be looked upon as undeserved. Daniels should have been in the Pro Bowl in the first place, [...]

I’m not sure there was a lot of trepidation about Alex Gibbs returning to the Texans in 2009. It seemed likely, especially after his son David was hired as defensive backs coach. That said, Poppa Gibbs is officially back with the Texans for 2009. Terms have yet to be disclosed, but I assume it’s another [...]
Continuing with the four-part series… Owen Daniels, TE, RFA This one’s a no-brainer. He’s restricted, so the Texans should absolutely tender him high and lock him up long-term. The only thing preventing Daniels from being a pro-bowler is that the AFC happens to have one guy who is wildly popular (Antonio Gates), and one guy [...]
Justin writes (RE: the Mock Draft Tracker): Is there a way that this can be tabulated, and show the %’s of who’s listed? IE, 30% have Everette Brown, 15% have William Moore, etc, etc. I would guess, as we get closer, they will start widdling themselves down to about 5 candidates or so. Not trying [...]
The Texans have 19 free agents in 2009. I’m going to go down the list alphabetically and give my thoughts on what the Texans should do with each player. What better way to stretch out the time between now and the NFL Combine than with a four-part series? David Anderson, WR, Restricted Free Agent I’m [...]
In between wild draft speculation and verbally abusing the Cowboys, I thought it might be time for a little round-up of some Texans news and stories that might have gotten lost in the shuffle. Antwaun Molden could miss OTAs Well, this is disheartening. One guy who we definitely need to make that second-year jump is [...]
Wow. As if the Dallas Cowboys couldn’t go any lower. As if their entire organization couldn’t be any more of an embarrassment right now… this might be the lowest point in the history of the franchise. The Dallas Cowboys have confirmed that they will hold one of their training camp roster spots for… a contestant [...]
Latest Comments Alright, so since the season is over, I’ve knocked the “Schmap” schedule in the right sidebar down a ways to make room for the latest site upgrade. Links to the previous five comments will now head the right sidebar under “Latest Comments.” Fancy and revolutionary, I know. Recently, I’ve gotten a few comments [...]
Following yesterday’s official word of the David Gibbs hiring, the Texans added another member of the staff, naming Bill Kollar as defensive line coach. Kollar brings 20 years of experience to the defense – the last 19 as a defensive line coach. By hiring Kollar, the Texans seem to have confirmed speculation that the Texans [...]
