Another Reason To Love Your Houston Texans' Front Office: Message Discipline
Over the years, we've talked plenty about the message discipline from your Houston Texans. If it seems like everything the team says --- from Uncle Bob McNair to Rick Smith to (FIRE!) Gary Kubiak to even low-level team-involved employees --- has a specific message and code, that's because it does....
Thank You, Gary Kubiak
Rivers' exquisitely crafted note of gratitude to Wade Phillips gave us an idea. For the next several days, we'll periodically be posting entries thanking various people who had a hand in making the Texans' 2011 season as enjoyable as it was. The season's over, which blows, but there's a lot to...

Who knew crow was best served with a pair of defensive backs and a side of grits? That's what I discovered this past weekend as I celebrated the Houston Texans' free agency fortunes in the 2011 NFL Free-Agency-palooza. I didn't expect it and somehow that made the celebration even sweeter. Last...
Terms of Johnathan Joseph's Contract With The Texans Released
John McClain (via our friends at Cincy Jungle) reports: Joseph gets 5 years, $48.75 million and $23.5 guaranteed, including $12.5 signing bonus. A lot of dough to be sure, but I'd wager it's less than what the Texans were willing to pay Nnamdi Asomugha. Your thoughts on the terms, BRB?
