A little more than two weeks remain before the NFL Draft. Most teams have obvious strengths and weaknesses and the Houston Texans are obviously no exception. With that being said, let's take a look at where the Texans are before the draft. I'll address the offense today and will examine the defense later ...Published on: 16th March, 2010
Child, please. We all know that Chad Ochocinco is one of the most prolific Tweeters in the NFL. But there are some teams who are likely to dominate the Twitter headlines leading up the the NFL Draft and well into the off season. Some of those teams will make ...Published on: 10th March, 2010
I'll start out agreeing with Jim McCurdy. This mock draft is a boat load of fun. And I'm glad to be part of the mock representing the Houston Texans Nation. If you looked at the photo, you'll know who I selected for the Houston Texans in the first round of the ...Published on: 8th March, 2010
Free agency is sometimes about landing a big fish. Think Albert Haynesworth or way back to Reggie White. More often, and especially for good teams, free agency is about adding good players that both fit the system and won't break the bank. Think of the New England teams in ...Published on: 5th January, 2010
(Photo caption: Gary Kubiak applauds my approval of one more year at the helm of the Texans.) I'll be the first to admit I'm not a big Gary Kubiak fan. I've written more than once on this site about my dislike for Kubes. And you know this. No need to recap. But I'll say this ...Published on: 4th January, 2010
Before we get started, let me ask you to excuse my lack of writing recently. I started a new job and had my wisdom teeth pulled. These were both very positive changes in my life, but didn't leave me much time to write about our beloved Houston Texans. With that being said, ...Published on: 14th December, 2009
Now, I don't want this to sound overly negative. Any time the Houston Texans win a game is reason to celebrate. And we all know there haven't been enough celebrations throughout the history of the franchise. But, a win against a reeling Seattle Seahawk team doesn't mean much. At 6-7, ...Published on: 10th December, 2009
By now we've all heard or read that Houston Texans running back Steve Slaton is out for the rest of 2009 with a neck injury. Early reports indicate that the nerve damage is not career-threatening and that Slaton will be ready for next season. Next season. Wait till next season. Houston fans ...Published on: 7th December, 2009
Could there be a more emblematic series than the first half goal line stand where the Texans' defense (with major props to weak side linebacker Zac Diles) fought tooth and nail to keep Jaguar's running back Maurice Jones-Drew out of the end zone? How does this sound as a microcosm for the entire ...Published on: 1st December, 2009
I don't think it is a stretch to say that this season has been a disappointment for the Houston Texans and their fans. Before the season started, pundits were picking the Texans as a sleeper team to emerge as a playoff contender. The team had improved in terms of talent and ...
