Homerism and the Texans.

Even the most devout Texans fan had to question how far rookie quarterback TJ Yates could carry them into the playoffs. The answer? To the Baltimore 38 yard line at the two-minute warning of the AFC Divisional Championship game. Friend of TGS Patty Hsieh of The Pigskin Arch made a bold prediction: the Houston Texans would make three bone-headed plays in this game against the Ravens...

The Houston Texans, fresh off their first playoff victory in franchise history – a 31-10 spanking of the Cincinnati Bengals – come to Baltimore for the second time this year hoping to earn a berth in the AFC Championship game. As I said several times this week, the Texans are to be commended for their first ever postseason win, and for doing it with a third string quarterback...

HOUSTON TEXANS (+7.5) @ BALTIMORE RAVENS I think you go points here. The Texans defense should be able to keep the Texans in this game. Both defenses give up an average of 17 PPG. Both offenses score about 24 PPG. This is a very even matchup. I think this spread should be more like +4.5. Houston is giving up just 85.7 rushing yards per game in their last 3. I think you see the Texans...

However, there are two games on tap for today as the Texans travel to Baltimore and the Giants visit the Packers.Historically...

As the Ravens prepare for Sundays game against the Houston Texans my mind wanders back to week one.  Remember week one?  The Packers and Saints gave us a hell of an opening game, everyone waited with anticipation for the “Dream Team” to take the league by storm, and the Ravens quietly made a statement; thrashing the Pittsburgh Steelers 35-7. Thinking back on the year...

Houston Texans defensive coordinator Wade Phillips, who was scheduled to interview for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coaching job Friday, told Tampa Bay officials that he was pulling out of the process, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

To beat the Texans, the Ravens will need to contain Houston running back Arian Foster.  They’ve laid the foundation for it by installing artificial turf at M&T Bank Stadium. Sal Paolantonio of ESPN reports that Foster said during a pregame, on-field discussion that he “hates” FieldTurf.  (Technically, the Ravens use Sportexe Momentum.)  Paolantonio points out…
