Texans’ Ryan To Play In Pro Bowl

Playoff Hopes Officially End for Texans
The Texans are doing great historically, but they’re no longer in contention for the playoffs. The team was eliminated from the AFC wild-card race after 7-and-7 Houston didn’t catch the 10-and-4 Jaguars or 9-and-5 Cleveland or even 9-and-5 Pittsburgh.

Led by backup QB Sage Rosenfels, the Texans won their 6th game of the season on Sunday, using the QB’s three touchdown scores to help in a big 28-14 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Rosenfels was on target all day, his only downfall were the two fumbles he lost, but the defense helped him [...]
Trio Of Texans to Consider For Pro Bowl
Yes it is true that the Houston Texans are 5-7 and have nearly zero chance of going to the playoffs. Another fact of NFL life is that when players are selected for the Pro Bowl, the players usually come from winning teams – in this case, winning teams meaning teams that finish near or [...]
