Defensive Meltdown Watch 2010: Our Failure To Completely Fail Disappoints
Oh my dearest, learned readers, I'm sad: We didn't finish with even the worst defense (by DVOA) in 2010, much less in NFL history (dating back to 1993). I fully believe the honor would've been well-justified by coaching and a scheme that was embarrassingly horrid...not unlike watching Roseanne...
Black Monday Watch (Update: Kubiak Fires Bush, Will Retain Job)
Even though we all pretty much know at this point that there will be no change at the top of the current coaching regime, let's put all the discussion leading up to this non-event here. Who knows...maybe Bob will shock the world... The Gary Kubiak weekly press conference is scheduled in its...
John McClain: McNair Keeping Kubiak Looks Likely
This isn't how I like to end my night: Unless something like a blowout loss to Jacksonville in Sunday’s game at Reliant Stadium causes him to have an 11th-hour change of heart, McNair will bring back Kubiak for his sixth season, two people familiar with the situation said on Thursday. ...
Someone Called In The Cavalry
You’ve got to hand it to the Texans organization. They certainly make things interesting for folks who spend a great deal of their time writing or reading about the franchise. Never mind the fact that the on-the-field performance isn’t what has drawn attention for quite some time, at...
Coaching Rumors: A Trip Around The Texans Blogosphere
When the news of a supposed list of preliminary coaching choices of rumored GM-to-stay Rick Smith hit last night, Twitter exploded. Kind of like it is right now with the Wade Phillips as DC/Gary Kubiak stays stuff. It's really getting out of control and we probably will hear about 496,572 other...
Post-Game Breakdown: Texans Lose To Broncos In Typically Absurd Fashion
What else is there to say? Great teams find a way to win. Bad teams find a way to lose. Actually, that may be oversimplifying things a bit. Your Houston Texans are not a truly wretched football team, in that they don't always get the snot beat out of them week after week. A loss is a loss is a...
Three And Out (Christmas Edition): Useless Predictions For Sunday's Game
From all of us here at BRB, here's hoping you and yours are having a joyous holiday season. Fortunately for those of us who have a running schtick to maintain, the spirits don't take Christmas off. Jacob Marley Tony Boselli stole my wallet visited me last night, all Dickensian-like, and pledged...
Defensive Meltdown Watch 2010
Don't think there's anything riding on Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos? Well think again, my people! The two teams are running neck and neck for the title of the worst pass defense since 1993 (by Football Outsiders' DVOA), making Sunday's game a sure-fire barn burner (however barn...
Time For The Cowher Power Hour!
It seems that the popular thing for casual fans (i.e., not us miserable bloggers) of the Texans is to have blindingly loyal support for the team to hire Bill Cowher to be the new coach should Gary Kubiak finally get his pink slip at season's end. On the other side (again, us despairing and...
Post-Game Breakdown: Texans Fall To Eagles To Drop To 5-7...Again
Same as it ever was. These breakdowns get harder every week, in no small part because I feel like I'm repeating myself. For all the talk about any given Sunday, it seems like your Houston Texans are living the 2010 version of "Groundhog Day." Forgive me if I go a little big picture on you after...
