Turnovers ruin Texans chances as season ends

Found January 15, 2012 on Houston Diehards:
PLAYERS: T.J. Yates,  Jacoby Jones,  Matt Schaub
TEAMS: Houston Texans

So that’s it. A great season came to an end in a most disappointing fashion. The Texans defense was stellar, but TJ Yates’ rookie status was evident Sunday, as he threw about half as many interceptions as he probably SHOULD have. Yates made some plays, but made some totally inexplicable throws, and of course Jacoby Jones is going to have a very, very rough week. At no point did the Houston Texans ever appear to be satisfied with a playoff appearance. Though they were heavy underdogs against Baltimore, they nearly pulled the thing off – they SHOULD have pulled it off. Houston had a better defense and a better running game, but not having Matt Schaub was the end of everything. Houston has a football team they can be proud of. Let the “Wade Watch” begin. Stay, Wade. C’mon. Stay. Thanks to the Texans for a most memorable season. Let’s do this again next year. What a ride it was.

NFL Sunday Divisional Round Picks Against the Spread

Via The Pass Rush  |  January 13, 2012
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...
