Ray Lewis SUCKS at this. "Tell the kids why you like playing football" "Why are u so connected with your fans" Wtf kind of questions are those after a game?
John McClain @McClain_on_NFL I'm still in shock. Texans defense was outstanding. Offense played just well enough. Special teams were terrific.
Seriously after tonight, I think the Texans earned 2-3 primetime games. The media loves Watt. Ppl love seeing him on camera.
What a win that this city desperately needed to lift our sport fans spirits. Love that post game interview with JJ. Lets keep it rolling!
Every team gets a Thursday night game... and unless they're downright horrid, most teams get a MNF game now too. What I want is a team that's good enough to get the 3pm national game.... and eventually the SNF game for the super-elite.
can someone recap jj's interview? all of you are talking about it, I missed it. Ray lewis should conduct his interviews like his pregame speeches with the dance included.

T.J. Yates, Texans pull off stunning win over previously undefeated Bengals By Dale Robertson on November 16, 2015 at 10:30 PM DeAndre Hopkins’ extraordinary end-zone catch over Adam Jones on a well-placed pass from backup quarterback T. J. Yates coupled with the most impressive defensive effort of the season gave the Texans a 10-6 victory over the previously undefeated Cincinnati Bengals on Monday night at Paul Brown Stadium. With the win, the 4-5 Texans reclaimed a share of first place in the AFC South with the Indianapolis Colts. The Bengals, with Katy native Andy Dalton being stifled at every turn by the swarming Texans, fell to 8-1 and were unable to keep pace with the 9-0 New England Patriots and the Carolina Panthers. The NFL still has never had three 9-0 teams in the same season. “It was a full team effort,” said defensive end J.J. Watt, who added a sack to up his season total to 9.5, second in NFL only to New England’s Chandler Jones, who has 10.5. “This was a massive game for us. We showed what we’re capable of against an 8-0 team on the road. It’s a series of seven one-game seasons for us now. Everything’s out there in front of us.” The Texans capped the huge upset by thwarting Dalton on Cincinnati’s final frantic series, which began at the Bengals’ 19 and died at the Houston 22 when Quintin Demps forced an A.J. Green fumble with 40 seconds left. On the previous play, rookie top draft choice Kevin Johnson had stepped in to break up pass to Green, giving Dalton one last chance to keep his franchise’s record winning streak alive. Dalton came in second only to New England’s Tom Brady in quarterback rating – and just barely, 111.1 to 111 – and hadn’t been held under 230 yards passing in a game before the Texans thwarted him at every turn and tight end Tyler Eifert, leading the NFL with nine touchdown passes, helped Houston’s cause by dropping three passes. The Texans forced seven punts and ex-Bengal Johnathan Joseph added an interception on Cincinnati’s first 10 possessions before Demps, also in his second Houston stint like Yates after being signed during training camp, finished the Bengals off. Yates, signed only after Ryan Mallett was cut, has thrown four regular-season touchdown passes in his five NFL seasons and three of them have come in Cincinnati, where he quarterbacked the Texans to their first division title and playoff berth as a fill-in rookie in 2011. He was filling in then for injured veterans Matt Schaub and Matt Leinart then. This night, he took over for Brian Hoyer when Hoyer was taken to the locker room early in the fourth quarter under the NFL’s concussion protocol. Yates, out of work since being cut by Atlanta at the end of the preseason, converted on a third-and-8 and a third-and-15 on the drive that ended with Hopkins’ acrobatic catch on the end-zone left sideline. The play covered 22 yards and capped a 9-play, 79-yard drive. Yates picked up 52 of those through the air on 6-of-9 passing. The Texans held the previously high-flying Bengals to Mike Nugent field goals of 42 and 39 yards in the first half – only the Steelers had previously kept Cincinnati out of the end zone in the first 30 minutes – but only managed a single Nick Novak field goal themselves and trailed through two quarters for the seventh time this season. Hoyer drove the Texans to the Bengals’ 6 early in the second quarter by hitting receiver Nate Washington for 19 yards and tight end C.J. Fiedorowicz for 25 before scrambling 15 yards. A 5-yard dive by Alfred Blue put the Texans on the 1, but Blue gave three of those back on second down and Hoyer’s third-down pass fell incomplete, bringing Novak on for his 22-yarder. The Texans, who held the football for barely over 10 minutes in the first half, have scored just five first-half touchdowns this season and remain the only team in the NFL to have generated no points on their first possession. But the Texans defense was up to task of picking up the slack and has now held opponents without a touchdown over the last 10 quarters
I can understand how people can get tired of the puff pieces and the HEB commercials, but he does give entertaining interviews.
