Texans 2007 Season in Review

The Houston Texans finished up their 2007 season at .500 in the most competitive division in the NFL. The AFC South, led by Indy’s 13-3 season, followed by Jacksonville’s 11-5 season and Tennessee’s 10-6 record, challenged the 8-8 Texans to their best season in franchise history. Besides that, records were set and leaders stepped up […]

Okoye Feeling Effects Of Long Season

                  
Houston Texans defensive tackle Amobi Okoye shouldn’t feel alone or left out; he is suffering what the vast majority of NFL players go through:  the “rookie wall”.  If Okoye saw premonitions around Week 5, then the wall hit him hard somewhere around Week 9.  His body went fast and furious, then his production has tapered […]

The best teams in the NFL are led by their coaches and impact players.  These leaders take responsibility for creating the big plays to change momentum and the outcome to their respective team’s games.  Whether it’s an offensive coordinator making the right call to beat a certain defensive front, or it’s the quarterback taking the […]

Texans try to avoid the new QB/RB jinx

I think it is safe to assume that when the Houston Texans rid themselves of quarterback David Carr and running back Domanick Williams, they wanted a fresh start at both skill positions.  They obviously did that by signing both QB Matt Schaub and RB Ahman Green this offseason.  It has also been said (and proven) […]

Schaub Looking to Take Texans to the Next Level

QB Matt Schaub is not looking back now that he is with the Texans and not the chaos that is now the Atlanta Falcons.  Schaub would have been the clear starter right now in Altanta with Michael Vick gone for who knows how long.  Even with that, Schaub has stated that he is happy to […]

Texans Sellout Streak to End in 07?

Even though the Houston Texans’ train of thought is that they’ve had 50 straight sellouts in five years of existence, there’s a possibility that the number might not get much higher.  Or any higher, for that matter. According to reliable sources, it appears that the Texans are having trouble selling their season tickets.  Currently, less […]
