A look at the Houston Texans Wednesday injury report.
The Houston Texans may have lost their first two games of the 2023 season, but there are absolutely some things to be excited about.
One of those things is rookie quarterback C.J Stroud. Stroud has not been perfect, but he is looking like someone that will have a bright future in the league. Stroud can make every throw, and will continue to get better and better.
The Texans defense took a step back last week against the Colts, but the potential is still there. Injuries to both starting safeties Jalen Pitre...
No wins, but plenty of passes to review.
The offense may be sputtering on the field, but on the stat sheet the passing game is humming like a Rolls-Royce. Call it stat-padding, call it late-game heroics, call it the C.J. Stroud effect, but whatever you do, don’t dismiss the improvement in the passing game.
Through two games, Houston Texans rookie QB C.J. Stroud has gone 58/91 (63.7%) for two touchdowns and no interceptions. While the team is 0-2 and the games were not close, that stat line is hard to gripe about. No interceptions through two games is as good...

While it is only Week 2, for some, the pressure is building.
HOUSTON - At the time of this writing, the Houston Texans sit at 0-2. This is actually their worst start record-wise since 2020. Of all the teams that started 0-2 last season, only the Cincinnati Bengals had that start and managed to turn it around to get a playoff berth. While early, the idea of opening the season with back-to-back losses is not ideal for anyone in the Texans organization.
“Look, we know that the season is young, that we got a bunch of new guys, and that...
Where do the Texans land after losing to the Colts?
Another week into the season, another week further away the Houston Texans get from their last victory. This is one constant we have adapted to as Texans fans. Houston was able to build hype entering this season with their slew of new players and coaches, and yet, the days since we last tasted victory just keep adding up. The flavor of the week this time around was blue (eugh!), but featured on the wrapper was the enticing rookie quarterback matchup of C.J. Stroud vs. Anthony Richardson. But, despite the alluring...
What were the bright spots from Sunday’s defeat?
Rebuilding a franchise never occurs in a straight line. There are bumps, turns, and sudden stalls along the way. There are also glimmers of hope where there might not be when looking at only the overall result. The Houston Texans lost 31-20 on Sunday. In some respects, the game was closer than you think. In other respects it was a bigger blowout than some might think.
We begin this edition the same way we begin all of them. We look at the overall numbers to see if somehow we can get an...
Well, not no one. You are now.
One of the knocks on Houston Texans rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud when he was coming out of college was the alma mater. That's right, “Ohio State Buckeye” is apparently a debit in the NFL quarterback quality account. In fact, there seems to be a large number of people convinced that should an Ohio State QB make it to the NFL, they will surely fail faster than they were drafted. Seems like a rather silly thing to assure yourself predicts individual future performance, but people say and do weird things these days. The post-COVID...

New coach, new QB, new everything...except the same old result at home
Well, your Houston Texans took the field for the first time at home for the 2023 regular season. The players in their Liberty Whites, the stadium packed with cautiously optimistic fans from the home crowd, looking to see the “for realz” debut of DeMeco Ryans as head coach, Matt Burke as the Most Interesting Defensive Coordinator in the World and CJ Stroud making his home debut. All against the vile ex-Baltimore, current Indianapolis Colts, a team that the Texans did not lose to last season. [KITTEN], the Texans...
