    This is going to be a good week for Texans fans. Today we will beat the Panthers, and by Tues night we might just be adding a player who will help lead us to the playoffs this year. I can't wait to see how this pans out.

    I wonder if we can manage to limit the Panthers to 3 first downs?

    Considering they ave over 15 first downs a game I think that's an unrealistic expectation. I just hope we can finally get our rushing touchdowns going since they aren't a great rushing defense. I'd love to see us snag a couple turnovers on defense. They have a pretty good pass defense, but I'm hoping to see Stroud and Dell work some magic.

    I would think anyone available at the deadline is overpriced, because you are competing with teams trying to make a SB push this year.

    You're right. But I can HOPE. I really want to see us blow out the Panthers at their place like we did Jacksonville.

    •Philly may not be done
    •Could see Buffalo, Baltimore, Atlanta being buyers
    •Sellers: Denver, Carolina, maybe Washington
    •Folks around the league think Sweat or Young will be dealt, especially if they lose to the Eagles



    Glazer:
    •Washington, they have 3 DL; rumors Bears have a deal for Young. That is not true. I don’t even think that one’s gonna happen. At least one of those DL will be moved. Looking for a 2+ or 3+ for Young.

    •Denver absolutely sellers; want a 2+ for Jeudy and something that equals a 2 for Sutton. I think on Tuesday they’ll come around and say “What’s our best offer?” and let’s go with that; Teams have called on Surtain just to find out. If someone gives a Ramsey deal, they’d entertain the offer but they’re not shopping him.

    •Titans told Henry they don’t intend to trade him. I think they didn’t get the compensation they liked so went back as a ploy, tell him we won’t trade you and hope a team offers a little more.

    •There are teams in RB market: Baltimore, Cleveland, Green Bay… guy like Dalvin Cook, you’d think teams would be calling. Nope, calling on Michael Carter instead.

    •Tannehill linked with Arthur Smith. Smith says “Love him, not gonna happen.”
    •Cousins has a NTC. I don’t know who has the money to bring him in right now. I don’t see that one happening.

    If the Texans dont make a trade for some sort of fcking help with the WR or something...just goes to show they don't want to make the playoffs this year. Today's game was fcking pathetic. Houston media needs to ask tough questions to Ryan and Slowik, especially Slowik and his lazyass play calling. Don't be fcking soft.

    RB should be a priority this offseason also. We basically have 3 backups

    I hope they stand pat. Can't afford to waste any draft picks this year for dreams of barely making it as a wild card. We still need lots of talent.

    I would trade Pierce for a 2nd rounder. Start Singletary, and draft another RB next year.

    I think he can net a 3rd. But a 4th will work too.

    With Cousins out for the season we should we try and trade Keenum for Hunter?

    Haha. Throw in Pierce and/or a couple draft picks. They need a QB. They are down to a rookie now, and no backups.
