The Roller Coaster That Is Texans Fandom
I thought I could put away the stages of suck after two wins, but the pile of excrement the Texans left on the field brought it back. I have been asking about four different people in my stages of suck, but there is way too much to say and I wanted to give the masthead […]

Raise your hand if you’ve seen this before: The Houston Texans play a night game on National TV and get utterly embarrassed.

Well, they tried! Try and try they might, the Houston Texans just couldn’t claw their way to victory in an ugly match against the Seattle Seahawks.

I’ve been writing for this site for going on five years now. I have been watching Houston Texans football since they beat Dallas 19-7. I have been watching Houston NFL football since the late 1970s. At no point did it ever feel like work. Last night did. A lot of it was a quick turnaround […]

The city of Houston hasn’t seen a snap of Texans football since their 44-10 manhandling of the Baltimore Ravens way back on October 5. Since then, the Colts have roared to 6-1, the Jaguars are turning into pumpkins and the Titans are.. well, the Titans. With that said, the national spotlight was on Houston and […]

For the last two weeks there’s been a constant argument going in my head. In case you forgot, two weeks ago the Texans beat the Ravens comfortably 44-10. It was the kind of game we’ve been dreaming of all season. All phases of the ball looked good. But what was it? Is it because the […]

The Texans and their 2-3 record currently hold the 11th spot in the 2026 NFL Draft. Given that five of their next six games come against teams with winning records, it wouldn’t be surprising if Houston ends up picking around this same spot in next year’s draft. In a recent “way too early mock draft” […]

The high of obliterating the hapless Baltimore Ravens 44-10 can only last so long. But hopefully that spark carries on for the next several months. Houston has rarely done well in nationally televised games, going 16-28 according to ChampsorChumps.us. A lot of those loses are due to short weeks, where the team didn’t have enough […]
