Bottom line – the Texans took care of business

Author: Chris | Files under Houston Texans & NFL

I’m still out of town for the holidays, so I can’t go deep on the Texans win right now, but I wanted to put something up so everyone can discuss it. Of course, people are going to complain about how the team turtled in the second half, but hey – this was essentially a playoff [...]

HDH fantasy football update – we have a champion

Author: Chris | Files under Fantasy Football, Houston Texans & NFL

The Sad Schaubs are the first champion of the HDH fantasy football league. It was a long, strange season. Next year I will make a lot of changes – something we’ll talk about much more once we get closer to draft time. For now – soak it in, champ. Your time will be over about [...]

Weekly Mailbag: Kris Brown, Cushing, Kubiak

Author: Chris | Files under Houston Texans & NFL

Two responses to footballfan412 this week, here’s the first, RE: Kris Brown: Damn, so Dallas cut Nick Folk today. I didn’t think cutting a kicker with two games left would be worth it, but, they did. I can’t stand Jerry Jones, but I give him credit for having the cojones. My response: Yep. The Redskins [...]

Texans win ugly, still have a playoff pulse

Author: Chris | Files under Houston Texans & NFL

Well, that was exciting. That had to be the least-thrilling three-point football game I’ve ever seen in my life. Lost in the ugliness will be the fact that the Texans won a close game The Texans shouldn’t have to apologize for a win. Yeah, it was a dreadful performance. The Rams are a disaster. They [...]

How or why does Bryan Pittman help Kris Brown?

Author: Chris | Files under Houston Texans & NFL

We all know by now that the Texans have brought back long snapper Bryan Pittman, with Joel Dreessen nursing a bum shoulder. When the signing went down I saw in an article that this might help Kris Brown get back on track. I don’t recall where I saw it or who wrote it, but I [...]

Team & TE production post-Owen Daniels

Author: Chris | Files under Houston Texans & NFL

With Owen Daniels’ contract issues and subsequent holdout this past offseason, there was a lot of talk about just how valuable he was to this team.

MUST SEE VIDEO: Cushing wired for sound

Stop whatever you’re doing, and watch this video RIGHT NOW! I found this via Texans Talk. Brian Cushing and Matt Schaub wired for sound against Seattle. The Cushing bits are GREAT! I love what he has to say about Deion Branch, especially. I wish they wired this guy for every game. Schaub is pretty much [...]

Check out Kyle’s plan to win in 2010

Author: Chris | Files under Houston Texans & NFL

As you might expect, Kyle has a few ideas on how to fix the Texans. He emailed this to me to post as a guest entry, but I want to help him grow his site – especially since it’s going to be very draft-intensive once the offseason gets here. So rather than post it here, [...]

With the pressure off, the Texans go off

Author: Chris | Files under Game Reviews, Houston Texans & NFL

[EDITOR'S NOTE] The stat in the Game Notes box above about the Texans’ record after 13 games came from Jerome Solomon’s Twitter feed. Yes, the Texans are still mathematically alive in the playoff hunt, but despite the accurate and hope-fueling article that Jerome Solomon wrote last week, it’s still a pretty huge reach that these [...]
