Report: Texans on Bill Cowher’s short list
I was just going to throw this in to the post-game draft I’m working on, but I figure it will generate some discussion. Jason La Canfora of NFL Network and NFL.com reports that the Carolina Panthers, Chicago Bears, and Houston Texans are on Bill Cowher’s short list . I’m ...

Texans play not to lose, VY makes the difference
Houston continues to wait for a playoff football team, because this isn’t one. Playoff teams win games like this. Dunta Robinson. Need I say more? Dunta Robinson turned down 23 million dollars? This guy got OWNED by a rookie tonight. He was terrible. A dropped interception here, a ...

Tick tock, tick tock
This is pretty much where I’m at right now. Share your pregame thoughts in the comments… but I’m just saying - I’m ready to go. I feel like I need to wear a helmet. I wonder what my wife will think of me after she sees me act the way I’m going to act tonight?

Would you believe this guy’s not a good speller?
That’s your boy Chris Johnson of the Tennessee Titans on the right, who upon arrival in Houston managed to somehow operate an electronic device well enough to say: “Just landed in huston I’m out cha get at ya boy.” “huston?” Really? I mean, I think ...

5 things the Texans need to do to win Monday
1. Do not give up the big play. Chris Johnson is probably going to get his. I just don’t see any team stopping him right now, but he can be contained. When these teams last met, CJ went bananas on three long scores, but one of those plays was a fluke (when he went uncovered and ...

HDH fantasy football thread, week 11
Our trade deadline is November 27. I know there’s a couple of guys who are looking to make some deals before the deadline hits. Allen - go ahead and repost your trade offer in the comments below. I might have to jump in the trade mix yet again, now that I’ve lost Ronnie Brown for ...

Guest entry: Kyle weighs in on Texans vs. Titans
[EDITOR'S NOTE] Kyle has some thoughts on the upcoming MNF matchup between the Texans and Titans, and I thought it deserved to be put up as a guest entry. Thanks to Kyle for contributing again - and as always, the door is eternally open for anyone who wants to submit a guest entry to be posted ...

RB situation still unsettled - Foster promoted
The Texans promoted RB Arian Foster to the active roster today, waiving DE Jesse Nading, who should end up back on the practice squad when he clears waivers. Foster will probably see some time on special teams, but clearly Gary Kubiak is still on the prowl for a running back who runs with ...

Just a week from now, it’s on. It’s SO on.
Oh, hell yes. It doesn’t take anything for me to get pumped for a Texans game. Now, make that game a contest against the Titans, and I become sort of, well… embarrassingly rabid. Put that on the grand national stage of Monday Night Football, and I become - I have no idea. ...

Bud Adams keeps it classy. What’d you expect?
Here’s our old friend in Nashville, celebrating in I guess the only way he knows how. Let me just say this though - to me, this is a non-story. Of all the evils he’s committed, all the horrible, horrible things he’s done - this is not even a blip on the radar. So what, ...

My top 5 favorite moments from this season
houstondiehards.com — …with a little help from this thread over at Texans Talk : 5. Jacoby Jones takes a punt all the way against Oakland. Oakland @ Houston. If not for a few silly penalties, Jacoby Jones would be a lock for the Pro Bowl as a return man. Maybe ... (more) My top 5 favorite moments from this season
HDH fantasy football, week 10 open thread
How about some discussion about how some of our recent trades have worked out? My starting lineup is literally different at EVERY position from what it was three weeks ago. The first week after the trade was a disaster, but this past week my guys all did really well. I thought maybe it was ...

Conflicting reports on Houston’s interest in L.J.
Ah, Twitter. It is both the best and worst thing that’s happened to sports reporting in quite a while. First, from the Twitter page of ESPN’s Adam Schefter (at about 4PM central time today): And now we start eliminating LJ landing spots: No more Houston - Gary Kubiak’s ...

For the love of God, say NO to Larry Johnson
RB Larry Johnson got his way and was put on waivers by the Kansas City Chiefs today. For two seasons (2005-2006) he looked like the next Earl Campbell. It turns out he’s not the next Earl Campbell. It turns out, he’s a horrible human being, and he’s got very little if anything ...

Well, let’s hope this is the low point of the year
Unbelievable. You scratch and claw and fight for 59 minutes and 59 seconds, and it all comes down to a non-football player. A missed freaking field goal. That, and the penalties. And the turnovers. And the person in the booth for the Texans whose job it is to relay to Gary Kubiak if he ...

The bandwagon is loading up in Austin
I just ran to the grocer to grab some food for the game, and something unusual happened. I saw Texans fans. This is a store I go to all the time, and I’ve been there in the hours leading up to gametime as well. I can honestly say that I’ve never seen anyone wearing Texans gear ...

As expected, Moats to start over Slaton
In a move that surprises nobody, Adam Schefter reported on his Twitter page this afternoon that Ryan Moats will start ahead of Steve Slaton. Hours later, John McClain filed this extensive report on Chron.com . Of course, there’s no real significance in this move, other than to send a ...

Best and worst of the first half - Defense
Biggest surprise - Bernard Pollard . Pollard has made an incredible difference since he was inserted into the starting lineup in week 4. Of course, it’s not just because of him - but it’s hard to ignore that his incredible run support immediately paid huge dividends. Mike over at ...

Best and worst of the first half - Offense
Through the first two seasons of this blog’s existence, I’ve done a mid-season report card. I might get around to that before the game Sunday, but for now I’d rather come at it this way. Feel free to insert your choices (and suggest new categories) in the comments: First, ...
