The Houston Rockets open a five-game homestand that includes five losable games. “But Armin,” you say, “the New Orleans Pelicans are 22-45! They suck!” “Well actually,” I respond as I push my glassed up the bridge of my nose, “the Pelicans are 7-3 over their last 10 games. That includes wins over the Toronto Raptors, […]

I have to hand it to my colleagues. They really tackled every news story with gusto. Handing the first week of the league year is a lot like drinking water from a firehose. Undoubtedly, some things are going to slip through the cracks. This is particularly true the way the Texans do business. They rarely […]
Mock Draft 3.0 for the Houston Texans kicks off with Houston a banger. This mock draft attempts to resemble the chaos and fluidity with which General Manager Nick Caserio moves around the draft board rather than how I would approach this class.

Heading into last season, the Houston Texans had a very questionable offensive line, a rookie tailback by the name of Woody Marks and a big time playmaker in tailback Joe Mixon.
