A classic Houston loss. Blowing a big lead in dramatically creative fashion. Let’s review, ‘cause we love pain
The Day After the Day After...when the raw, immediate emotions from the aftermath of a game diminish into the realm of clarity and the proverbial (or literal) hangover no longer haunts the mind. With that, a review of Week 10:
The changes to the offensive line worked...until they didn’t: Suffice it to say that the Texans’ offensive line hasn’t had the desired results this season. The primary culprit: LG Kenyon Green. With him out, the Texans went with a solution whereby Juice...

What was the good, bad, and ugly from the Texans 26-23 loss?
It was the best of times. It was the worst of times. Sunday night’s game between the Houston Texans and Detroit Lions was a dichotomy in every sense of the word. On the one hand, the Texans had no business losing that game. On the other hand, they had no business being in that game either.
Watching the second half was like a watching a car crash in slow motion. You could see it from the first play of the half. The Texans were going to find a...

“We let ‘em off the hook!”
Let’s get this out of the way up front: the Detroit Lions are currently one of, if not the, hottest teams in the NFL. Kudos to them for finding a way to win. Especially after coughing up 5 turnovers.
Now that’s out of the way, cue the old Dennis Green “We let ‘em off the hook” post game tirade.
Midway through the 2nd quarter, the offensively offensive line gave up a 12 yard sack on C.J. Stroud. Facing a 2nd and 22, OC Bobby Slowik calls the old draw play everyone who has ever...

Some quick thoughts about this particular day on the American calendar.
Hopefully, this post finds you enjoying a well-earned day off from work (or, if you are forced to work this day, you can get some well-earned compensation). This past week has seen a ton of emotions, especially the gambit of emotions associated with the Sunday Night Football game last night. Ok, sorry for that reminder, but then again, this is a Texans’ site.
However, this Monday is a day when we can and should step beyond the Xs and Os, scores and standings, and consider something bigger than football....

I...I can’t even begin to comprehend what happened. I REFUSE to comprehend what happened.
Five interceptions.
The Houston Texans got five interceptions off of Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions tonight. Apparently, for the Texans to win, they needed a sixth interception that never materialized.
Ordinarily, if you saw that one team gave up five, I repeat, FIVE interceptions, you would understandably think that it was a blowout against them.
You would somehow be mistaken because the Houston Texans did not manage to capitalize on all those errors. The defense held their own for as long as they possibly could,...

Houston’s final injury report before Sunday night’s game.
The Houston Texans have announced the following players will be inactive for tonight’s Sunday Night Football game at NRG Stadium:
This isn’t good. This isn’t good at all. Without wide receiver Nico Collins and defensive end Will Anderson Jr., the Texans will be significantly thinner on both sides of the ball.
The Detroit Lions have announced the following players will be inactive tonight:...

Wanna watch a Texans game? Here’s how you can.
Good morning, guys, gals, and non-binary pals. Your Houston Texans are playing their second prime time game in a row. Tonight, Sunday night, NRG Stadium will play host to the Detroit Lions, the first home SNF game since...well...week 2 when another NFC North team, the Chicago Bears, came a-calling.
Since this is going to be a prime time game, this is going to be a very short “how to watch” post. You don’t need the cool maps from 506 Sports, since it’s going to be nationally broadcast (gulp) on NBC.

Ryan Mathews of Pride of Detroit joins BRB for five questions
Very rarely does a prime time matchup live up to advanced billing. The NFL got a good one on Thursday night when the Baltimore Ravens narrowly defeated the Cincinnati Bengals. The brass is hoping for another one tonight. On paper it looks like they’ll get one as the Detroit Lions come in 7-1 and the hometown Houston Texans at 6-3.
Records can be deceiving though. We brought in Ryan Mathews to talk about the upcoming matchup to see if there is anything we are missing. At first glance it...
