Troy Taormina-Imagn Images Whose stock is up and whose is down after one week of Houston Texans Training Camp The Texans are one week into training camp and there are plenty of storylines already unfolding. Most notably, Joe Mixon’s absence completely derailed the running back position and created a full-fledged battle for the starting role. The offensive line has, as expected,...

Kevin Jairaj-Imagn Images With a refurbished offensive line, the Houston Texans are hoping to take it all the way to the top in 2025. Here are three Secret Superstars who could help them get there. The 2024 Houston Texans had an interesting season in which they alternated between looking like one of the NFL’s best teams and occasionally one of the worst, with a whole lot of...

Oh, I think we know who’s more likely to win this award this year? Right Jerruh? | Photo by John Rivera/Icon Sportswire via Getty Images With the NFL in its “dead zone”, a chance to answer the “real” questions about the league. Anyone can figure out the “best”. Best team, best player, etc. However, it takes real talent to figure out the “best” of the “worst”. Especially when...

Photo by David Eulitt/Getty Images The Texans made a bold move last offseason, acquiring Pro Bowl running back Joe Mixon from the Cincinnati Bengals — and it turned out to be one of the best things Houston could’ve done to bolster their offense. Mixon brought a consistent level of toughness and energy throughout the season, which had been needed on the offensive side of the...

Photo by Jason Miller/Getty Images The Battle Red Blog writers gathered to discuss the signing of RB Nick Chubb Texans signed Nick Chubb earlier this week and While the impact on each of the current running backs on the roster is still being settled, it’s clear Houston has plans to implement the four-time Pro Bowler in the offense in a meaningful way. Chubb enters an extremely...

Kirby Lee-Imagn Images WR2 locked in the house? While all eyes were fixated on Houston Texans latest free agent signee, Nick Chubb, a rookie was busy lighting the mini camp on fire. For those who came in late, with the 34th overall pick in the draft, the Texans selected Jayden Higgins, wide receiver from Iowa State . While at Iowa State, Higgins caught 140 passes for 2166...

Photo by Cooper Neill/Getty Images Houston, you have a backup running back.... There are few transactions in Houston Texans history that have made a curmudgeon like me giggle. A short, silly, and gleeful laugh emitted from my soul. Adding four-time Pro Bowl running back Nick Chubb to the Houston Texans offense is a savvy and exhilarating decision. The excitement can be felt...

Barry Reeger-Imagn Images What could Nick Chubb do the for the offense? Much is made of high powered offenses in the NFL. Usually, the focus for the Texans going from a mediocre offense to a good offense is focused on improvement in pass protection and the performance of the passing game. Those things can certainly be helpful and they will lead to a jump in performance, but few...

Photo by Nick Cammett/Diamond Images via Getty Images So, who’s the odd man out in the RB corps? You know, we as Texans fans owe a lot to the Cleveland Browns over the last few years. They helped the Texans get out from under the disastrous Brock Osweiler contract (not that he ever played for us; that’s just a filthy, spurious lie), they let the Texans trade up in the draft to ...

Photo by Alex Slitz/Getty Images Is the young defensive end ready to cash in? The short answer to the subheading is yes. Will Anderson is ready to cash in. Ironically, while quarterbacks get the most headlines and the most money, there is more intrigue at the edge rusher position in terms of free agent dollars. The quarterback market is pretty tight and pretty well defined. The edge...

Ron Chenoy-Imagn Images Could a once great back be the missing piece of the offense? One of my favorite books growing up was a book titled “The Missing Piece” by Shel Silverstein. In fact, I use it now as a teaching tool when I work high school retreats at my church. Obviously, the story has a lot of deep themes that we really shouldn’t get to here, but the title seemed to ring true...

Kirby Lee-Imagn Images A calculated gamble could pay off big time One need look no further than the tale of a former Texans star when chronicling the folly of fully guaranteed contracts. The Cleveland Browns gave Watson the most guaranteed money in the NFL after he had sat out a year twiddling his thumbs and before he would have to sit out most of the next season due to...

[Photo by Aaron M. Sprecher/Getty Images Nick Caserio is a mad man. Just depends on if he’s a genius or not. It’s mind-numbingly demoralizing to consider the eight mock drafts I posted on this site were essentially null-and-void from the get-go. After selecting three players correctly last year, I came home with only accurately picking Jayden Higgins to be a Houston Texan in my ...
