Adam Schefter at the NFL Network reports an
earth-shattering development in the aftermath of the Vick indictment:
the Falcons want Matt Schaub back . According to Schefter, there is a rumor floating around some circles that the Falcons would be ...
For the first time in franchise history, the
Houston Texans are 2-0. I am beyond ecstatic, particularly
considering how this one started ( e.g. , a 14-0 hole on the road). Much, much, MUCH more on this later, but here's the official box ...
With the 118th overall pick, the Texans selected
a player who by all accounts should have gone
a lot higher. Slated by many to be drafted in the mid to late second round, taking Virginia Tech’s Xavier Adibi’s in the middle of the ...
I typically only use Jerome Solomon's columns as
starter for my charcoal grill, but his most recent
"work" may not be worthy of such an honorable demise. Solomon lamely attempts to align the Phillies' recent 10,000th loss to the Texans' five ...
In what we hope will become a regular
feature here at BRB, we sent five (5) questions
to our compatriot over at Blogging the Boys about Dallas' prospects this season as we march forth to Saturday night's Governor's Cup. Dave also sent us five ...
Profile here . Obviously, the Texans were happy
to address the glaring hole at CB with this
pick. And the more I think about it, this pick smells a bit to me like Fred Bennett Version 2.0; if that's the case, we'll be thrilled with Molden. Interesting thing to me is that Smithiak left a handful of better known CBs on the board in favor of taking Molden. Clearly, they see ...
And with this , I've officially decided I
would make out with Rick Smith and/or Gary Kubiak
if either or both ever asked me to. Good God, this is a great pick. I need to change my shorts.
If offensive linemen are the diesel burning big
rigs of the gridiron, then Alex Gibbs is the
master mechanic. Like any good craftsman, he knows exactly what it takes to get the gears turning and the wheels rolling. That’s why when Alex Gibbs ...
Now that the dust has settled, let's take
a long, hard look at what the Texans did
this weekend. First, the draftees: Amobi Okoye (DE, Louisville) Jacoby Jones (WR, Lane College) Fred Bennett (CB, South Carolina) ...
And I don't simply say that because he's
refrained from whining about his former team . No,
I say it because of this nugget from John McClain's latest blog entry : "If you're like me, you're excited about the Texans starting their official ...
We generally try to stay Texans-centric here at
BRB, so please excuse the headline of this post.
While the Vickbull Saga has to be causing bile to rise in the throat of Falcons fans with each new revelation concerning their franchise ...
Whether he actually becomes a legit No. 2
wideout, I don't know. But I do know that
the guy says all the right things : "I'm a team player," Walter said. "I'll do whatever coach wants me to do. It's frustrating when you're working real hard and ...
So says Michael Silver , anyway. You'll pardon
me if I take this with a grain of
salt, considering Daniel Snyder, he of the propensity for signing free agents to ridiculously inflated contracts, is ranked fifth on Silver's list. Still, ...
As mentioned repeatedly here at BRB, the bloggers
of the AFC South were each tasked with examining
a division rival as we head into the 2007 season. There's no real format for that examination; it's pretty much at the blogger's discretion. ...
As regular readers of BRB know, we highly
recommend everything about the outstanding Texans blog over at
Da Good, Da Bad, and DeMeco . Matt is a terrific writer, and he drinks roughly as much Smithiak-flavored Kool Aid as we do. So it ...
I understand that Texans fans are eager to
see Mario Williams "prove" that he was worthy of
the No. 1 pick (or, more to the point, worthy of being picked ahead of Vince Young and Reggie Bush) in last year's draft. Really, I get it. But I'm ...
Although I realize going into this that anything
I write will pale in comparison with Liston's recap
, I nevertheless am compelled to share my thoughts on last night's tilt. Having attended the game, I'm sure there are several things I missed ...
Today's Chronicle featured two fine stories ( here
and here ) on Houston's latest (and best) franchise
QB. While the points raised wouldn't exactly qualify as revelations for fans who have tracked the team through the offseason and preseason ( ...
Battle Red Blog is proudly a community of
Texans' fans with a unique ( read : disturbed)
perspective on life. Need an example? Our reaction to this story being reported by the Chronicle . Texans' CB Dunta Robinson may have been the direct ...
Well, it's go time, people. The regular season
is upon us. And with that, we present our
first "Five Questions" with a regular season opponent--in this case, our boy Chris over at Arrowhead Pride . From the keyboard of a Chiefs fan: ...


Falcons Having Second Thoughts? Really?
