Trindon Holliday Is 16-0

The NFL's shortest player is also its winningest. Return specialist Trindon Holliday just completed a perfect regular season, 5-0 with Houston, 11-0 with Denver, and he joins an exclusive club featuring the rosters of the 1972 Dolphins and the 2007 Patriots. If the Broncos go all the way, Holliday w...

Here Are Some Photos Of J.J. Watt Bro-ing Down At The Club

The Texans clinched the AFC South with Sunday's win over the Colts, and defensive end J.J. Watt was eager to celebrate after the game. Those brash boozehounds over at Shot of Ginn have six photos of Watt bringing the cool to what looked like a swell time at the 5th Amendment in Houston, and we sugge...

The Texans Will Build The NFL's Two Largest Video Screens

Houston is mighty proud of its stadiums. When the Astrodome, the world's first domed multipurpose stadium became obsolete, they built Reliant Stadium, which just completely dwarfed it. But Reliant, somehow, remains the only field in the NFL without a digital scoreboard. And up in Arlington, Jerry Jo...

The Patriots Did Not Shut Down J.J. Watt Last Night

Reading what people have written about splendid Texans defensive end J.J. Watt from last night's Patriots romp, you'd think New England's line squashed Watt. "Kudos to Dante Scarnecchia and the New England offensive line for keeping Brady so clean," Peter King tweeted. "Texans standout defensive end...

Jim Schwartz's Illegal Challenge Doubled The Texans' Chances Of Winning The Game

With the possible exception of the tuck rule, the rule that tripped up the Lions and Jim Schwartz has to be one of the dumbest in the game. You don't have to throw the challenge flag because we'll review it on our own, the rulebook says, but if you throw the challenge flag we won't review it....

Former Texans Punter Suing Reliant Stadium Owners For Being Injured By Its Crappy Field

This week, the Texans brought in a handful of veteran kickers for tryouts. They're reportedly happy with Shayne Graham's field goals, but wish he could get a little more distance on kickoffs. They had a decent candidate last year, an undrafted rookie K/P out of Central Michigan named Brett Hartmann,...

Brian Urlacher Congratulates The Texans On Picking Off Jay Cutler: Sunday Night Football, In One GIF

Houston 13, Chicago 6: It was wet and miserable tonight at Soldier Field, and the score reflected it. The game wasn't altogether boring—the Bears had a chance to tie or win on their last possession—but they did not. Six turnovers later (four the Bears, two for the Texans) and what this game will be...

Arian Foster Is Vegan, Except For When He Eats Chicken

When Arian Foster announced that he was switching to a Vegan diet this summer, the doubters appeared. "If this doesn't work, I'm going to kick your ass," teammate Brian Cushing told him. Is it even possible to consume the however many thousands of calories a day hardworking NFL players burn through?...

Matt Schaub Lost Part Of His Ear During Yesterday's Game

The list of athletes to lose parts of an ear during competition consists of Evander Holyfield and pretty much every wrestler ever. That list now includes Texans quarterback Matt Schaub, who in taking a brutal hit from Broncos defender Joe Mays found himself sans auricle. (You can watch the play her...

Houston Hangs On To Beat The Broncos In Denver, In Two GIFs

Houston 31, Denver 25: The Houston offense stopped clicking weirdly right around the time Matt Schaub was almost decapitated. Might be something to keep an eye on. As a result, Peyton Manning was able to battle back and make this one kind of interesting, but it was not to be....

Houston 27, Jacksonville 7: The Game In One GIF

The Jaguars did not have a good game. 117 total yards on offense is, like, the definition of not having a good game. Here's an optimistic post game quote from a Jacksonville player:...

1,100 Households Watched The Astros Game On Sunday, The Team's Worst TV Rating Ever

The weekend Nielsens are in, and Houstonians are apparently enjoying the last of the summer. Nearly half-a-million households, or 44 percent of TVs in use, were tuned in to the Texans' boring win over the Dolphins. That's not great—worse than all but four games last year. But it's gangbusters compar...
