The high of obliterating the hapless Baltimore Ravens 44-10 can only last so long. But hopefully that spark carries on for the next several months. Houston has rarely done well in nationally televised games, going 16-28 according to ChampsorChumps.us. A lot of those loses are due to short weeks, where the team didn’t have enough […]

One of the most common questions I get asked is how can you tell if a mistake is due to the tactical system or just the individual error of the player?
