41 to 28…..   Is the final chapter to the 2012-2013 season for the Houston Texans. Week 14 would be a precursor to what would be a double dose of the New England Patriots and Tom Brady, and how the Texans would finally meet their fate. There is plenty of blame to be pushed around and after what could be a promising season, and the Divisional round of the playoffs once again the road block to the Super Bowl. The month of December and the two playoffs games were nothing but a shade of their former selves from the early part of the season. The city of Houston will be talking about this for the entire off season but the pain on this one will not go away for sometime.   Stats Do Not Tell the Whole Story Matt Schuab was 34/51 with two touchdowns and one interception with a quarterback rating of 90.6.

Texans WR DeVier Posey Tears Achilles Tendon

Houston Texans wide receiver DeVier Posey suffered a torn Achilles tendon during yesterday’s loss to the New England Patriots, an injury that could keep him out through the mid-way point of next season, according to John McClain of The Houston Chronicle.
