Found February 17, 2012 on State of the Texans: Yardbarker Blogger Network
It the last podcast of the season Mike and Pat are joined by a fan favorite, TX Cleaver. With the absence of “Bubbles”, the guys pick up the pieces and talk about “almost everything” Texans. With the Super Bowl in the books, the trio gives thoughts on the game and start the discussion of potential moves the Texans might make, especially with the free agency around the corner. Pat gets offended at the thought of DeMeco Ryans not being in a Texans uniform next season, Mike and TXCleaver agree that it “possibly” could be an option. Also they start looking at potential free agent targets and talk about the Texans own issues with free agents. Once again thanks for listening, and don’t be shocked by any unnecessary words that might come out during the podcast.

Matt Leinart Beach House Party Update: “He’s A Tool,” Says Hot Chick

The saga surrounding that innocent Matt Leinart beach house party last weekend just got interesting thanks to our source who expanded on what happened last Saturday night in Newport Beach. As you read yesterday, Lynsi London tweeted that Leinart had people over after a night at Sharkeez. She mentioned in the tweet that he’s an #assman. Now we learn, according to London, that there...

Could Mario Williams remain with the Houston Texans?

Expected to be one of the most sought after free agents in this year’s market, OLB/DE Mario Williams told reporters on Thursday that money is not the only thing he’s interested in. Mario Williams could easily become the highest paid defensive player in NFL history next month, but it appears he is sending out signals that he’d like to remain with the Houston Texans...

New CBA rule could boost Bears' activity in free agency

We're still a ways off from the Free Agency Period kicking in, but this weekend I saw something that could help new General Manager Phil Emery in his first offseason at the helm of da Bears. One of the wrinkles in last year's new CBA allows for teams to carry over their remaining cap space from one year to the next; we'll call it the Cap Carryover Clause, or triple C...

Why the urgency to re-sign Mario?

At age 27 Mario Williams has 53 career sacks. Despite the fact he played in just 5 games last season, no current player in the NFL as young as Williams has collected as many sacks. At the time of his injury in 2011, only three players had more sacks since Williams' rookie year in 2006: DeMarcus Ware, Jared Allen and Trent Cole. All of those players are older than Williams. Thus...

Nose Tackle Lust

  With free agency and the NFL Draft in the near future teams will be looking to fill voids in their current roster. With the Houston Texans it seems there may be a growing interest for them to fill positions of need, especially during the 2011 offseason. Precision moves made the Texans a contender, and by adding a free safety and shut down corner the Texans defense made a complete...

Players, scouts invade Greater Houston Football Showcase

HOUSTON Alberto Gonzalez wears a lip ring and what appears to have been a Mohawk at some point in the recent past, and he appears a little unsure of himself as he mingles with college football coaches. He is at something called the Greater Houston Football Showcase, which is a scouting combine for high school football players who didn't sign Division I letters of intent. Division...

Texans celebrate their 10th anniversary

Time flies in the NFL: The Houston Texans’ very first game, a Sunday night win over the Cowboys, feels like a fresh memory to me. And yet the Texans sent out a reminder today that they’re celebrating their 10th anniversary this year. The Texans’ announcement noted that the players will wear a patch on their…

PFT Live: What will the Texans do in the offseason?

Arian Foster’s agent won’t be offended by franchise tag

We’ve written a lot about whether the Texans will place the franchise tag on restricted free agent Arian Foster. John McClain of the Houston Chronicle doesn’t believe it will happen, in large part because the Texans would match any offer sheet Foster signs elsewhere. (And because the Texans need the cap room.) Foster’s agent Mike…
