The Roller Coaster That Is Texans Fandom
In another innovative first, the NFL has introduced a way for fans to get inside the NFL combine from the comfort of their favorite viewing spot. Let’s face it, any seat in Texas is better than a seat inside the Indianapolis Colts barn. Fans Can Now Register for Free Access to NFL Scouting Combine Presented […]
School is out! Okay, well maybe the Houston Texans’ 2025 season did not end in the confetti and fireworks we may have been hoping, but considering the circumstances the team was in after an 0-3 start, ending up all the way into the divisional round of the playoffs was quite the impressive feat. This is […]
Every off-season wild rumors swirl around the Houston Texans. Threaded in and around those are mock drafts, rumors of another sort. This year is really no different. The talking heads need something to get people to click, tune in, listen up and otherwise help them sell you advertising content. So, the wilder the rumor, the […]
The NFL just released their full list of invitees to the NFL Combine. Over 319 players were initially invited to participate at the combine. Houston currently possess nine total picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, including four in the top 70. and Houston stands to select multiple players who are invited and workout at the […]
There comes a time when those of us on the periphery of the sports commentary game come across an existential crisis. On the one hand, controversy sells. The hot take generation has taken over in full force and you either get on the train or get run over by it. Yet, one can’t help but […]
It’s been a tough couple of weeks for Texans fans since their season came to an inglorious end at New England. Watching the Patriots get slapped around in a beating worse than the 29-13 score indicated did little to allievate some of that pain. The team had a lot go right for it. A franchise-best […]
The Texans got solid production from their starting tight end, Dalton Schultz, in 2025. Schultz hauled in 82 receptions for 777 yards and three touchdowns. He was Mr. Reliable all season for quarterback C.J. Stroud and should be in line for an even stronger 2026 campaign with another year in Nick Caley’s system. The real […]

Houston Texans HOUSTON (February 12, 2026) – The Houston Texans, Harris County, and Howard Hughes® today announced plans for Toro District™, a transformative new sports and entertainment destination in Bridgeland®, located in Northwest Harris County.

The Super Bowl left many Houston Texans fans thinking “that could have been us”. A better offensive line and a healthy Joe Mixon could have been the difference… especially in taking the pressure off of QB C.J. Stroud. The seven-round post-Super Bowl mock draft is my third of the offseason. Next edition will be after […]
After holding our collective breath for Dameon Pierce to carry on his rookie promise, and Joe Mixon to return from magical, mystery, injury land, it’s time to move on. 2025 rookie Woody Marks managed to hammer out 703 yards on 196 carries for a 3.6 yard per carry average in first year. The beating he […]
I’ve been mulling this commentary on Blake Fisher on for quite a while. Unsurprisingly, I think about the Texans an uncanny amount. ‘What if’s’ careen through my mind like highways in downtown Houston with the names of players whose missed opportunities could have opened so many doors for the franchise. Jaelen Strong. Tyler Ervin. Martinas […]
Part two of our Re-Sign or Replace analysis for the Houston Texans heading into the NFL Free Agency period, which opens March 9th. I chose to re-sign our two offensive lineman free agents Ed Ingram and Trent Brown while letting Christian Kirk, Nick Chubb, and Dare Ogumbowale find another home in the league. The Texans […]
It is customary after every Super Bowl to ask whether we can learn anything from the team that won. I suppose all 31 teams are doing that today. Usually the answer is no. There are any number of ways to win in the NFL and the Seahawks used one of those. Teams can try to […]
THIS SEASON, NO DEFENSE, NO CHAMPIONSHIP: Most know the cliche of “Defense wins championships.” Is that really true every season? Not necessarily. However, for 2025-26, if you didn’t have a top-tier defense, or one that could consistently play that way, you weren’t getting very far. The culmination of that sentiment came in Super Bowl LX. […]
Throughout this past season, the Texans’ wide receiver group had moments where they delivered — and even more where it felt like they left a lot on the table. Houston already have their star wideout in Nico Collins. Collins eclipsed 1,100 receiving yards, but it still felt like there were games where he wasn’t involved […]
Welcome to the precipice. Beyond here is the football wasteland. Seven months of uninterrupted non-football punctuated by the various oases of football activity like the combine, free agency, the draft, the schedule release (for reasons that elude me) await us past this point. With that in mind, here is your Super Bowl live discussion thread […]
We asked and you answered, so let’s take a look at the results from this week’s survey! It looks like most of y’all made the correct decision in picking the Seahawks to win it all. May Durga bless and keep the Seahawks on Sunday. And if you want to make some picks of your own […]

With all the focus on the offense right now, particularly what C.J. Stroud will do in 2026, it seems like a good time to take a look at the defense. Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans and defensive coordinator Matt Burke built one of the best defenses in the NFL last season. Along with secondary […]
Last offseason, it felt like the Texans had a very strong group heading into the regular season. You had Joe Mixon, who, when healthy, is one of the best running backs in the league, penciled in as the starter. You also drafted a young, promising rookie in Woody Marks out of USC, and added a […]
In an era of one-year contracts and player-friendly deals, free agency is a significant aspect of the team building process. Especially for the Texans, as they still seek their first AFC Championship appearance, all it could take is one or two key free agent decisions. According to Jason from Over The Cap, the Houston Texans […]
We have spent a great deal of time over the last couple of weeks looking at what is wrong. I have to cop to that myself as we have focused a lot of angst towards C.J. Stroud and deservedly so. Some of that could be labeled as click bait as the odds of Stroud being […]
BIG PICTURE: In one respect, this season was a massive success. The team tied its record for most wins in a regular season, matched its longest regular season winning streak and counting the playoffs, set the franchise winning streak record. It finally won a road playoff game. It got three players on the All-Pro team […]
The Houston Texans have made their first significant staff changes of the 2026 offseason. KPRC’s Aaron Wilson reports that the team is moving on from tight ends coach Jake Moreland, assistant linebacker coach Ben Bolling, and offensive assistant Mike Snyder: All three coaches have spent multiple years on Houston’s staff, and now all will be […]
In the previous iteration of the Houston Texans, before Watson unmasked himself, the offense excelled when Will Fuller V was streaking down the field like his nicknamesake The Flash. Under Demeco Ryans, Tank Dell fills that role for the team. In ‘23 & ‘24, Dell combined for 156 targets, 98 receptions, 1376 yards, 69 first […]
