The Roller Coaster That Is Texans Fandom
As discussed in last week’s post/poll/podcast, the Houston Texans offensive scheme lives and dies on the run game. It’s hard not to wonder what 2025 would have been like if Joe Mixon hadn’t been disappeared and the offensive line would have been less… offensive. Based on the sights, sounds and stories that dropped from recent […]

While not every draft pick works out, every pick comes with a plan. Teams don’t select players on a whim; they have a deep understanding of their traits, skillset, and potential projection. Whether they achieve said potential is up to a multitude of factors, several out of the player’s control (ex: injuries), but nonetheless players […]
We get to the last of our series on possible free agency additions prior to training camp. Just as a reminder, I am not advocating for any specific position to be added. In point of fact, the Texans probably can add only one significant player and that has to come at the right price. We […]
Wide receiver Tank Dell is a very special football player. Ever since he stepped onto the field in 2023, he has brought an explosive element to the Houston Texans’ offense. When healthy, he is one of the better route runners in football. The problem has never been his talent — it has been staying healthy. […]
The school year is coming to an end which means it’s time to start handing out grades. When Houston Texans head coach Demeco Ryans was a star linebacker for the Texans, a (bad) decision was made to trade him to the Philadelphia Eagles. He went on to lead the Eagles in tackles the next 2 […]

If you’ve been paying attention over the last decade, you know I love a good “old saying”. The one for today is: “Your best ability is your availability” When an NFL team signs a player, particularly a starter, the whole team relies on that player to be available to do their part. But, the NFL […]
The Texans already have their two starting linebackers set in Azeez Al-Shaair and Henry To’oTo’o, but the big question now is who will step into that third linebacker role with E.J. Speed sidelined. That answer likely won’t come until training camp, but Houston already has a few options on the roster. One of them is […]
As we continue our series we come to one of the last two positions where the Texans could consider a late addition through free agency. I want to reiterate the rules here.

The NFL Draft is a microcosm of where an organization stands in its roster development. Some teams are actively unshackling themselves to their expensive, ball-and-chain veteran contracts. Some are desperately building around a veteran QB. The Houston Texans fall into the group of teams operating in a win-now window, where the focus shifts from broad […]
