Post-Game Breakdown: Texans Fell Patriots For Ninth Win Of Season
Tempting as it might be, I could hardly let your Houston Texans' record-breaking ninth win of the season go by without a PGB, however late and/or unnecessary it might be. We'll have plenty of looks at the season and team as a whole, as well as individual players, in the days and weeks ahead. For...
Post-Game Breakdown: Texans Defeat Dolphins; Have Outside Shot At Playoffs
Exasperating? Frustrating? Maddening? Perhaps. As long as you're putting that qualifier before "Houston Texans win," I'll take it. The Texans won a must-win game. On the road. Against a Dolphins squad that also had to win. That counts for a whole lot around these parts, particularly when...

Post-Game Breakdown: The Houston Texans Make Me Sick
I'd love to sit here and tell you that your Houston Texans are "the best 0-2 team you'll ever see." Really, I would. But I can't, because they're not. The numbers don't lie. Since the 2008 regular season began, the Texans have looked like something that is expelled from a canine's anus. In...
Falcons vs. Bucs Recap: When Good Games Go Bad
I think many of us were feeling pretty good about the Falcons after the first week of the season. After all, though we knew the Lions were an awful team, we beat them so thoroughly that it seemed as though we should at least be able to hang in the game with most of the average teams in the...
