#Texans wide receiver Jaylin Noel turf toe injury, regarded as season-ending issue, per league source, is a blow to offense and special teams. Most explosive and fastest receiver on roster with 4.39 speed in 40-yard dash
A. I hope he’s right.
B. It is kind of funny, the “look like a team that thinks they can win a title” part — the Spurs game is a relevant data point. The other three games are vs the Mavs and Hawks, teams who factor zero into any title talk.

Saw a lot of comments yesterday comparing the Quenton Nelson trade to the Marvin Harrison Jr. trade, but details and context matter.
The Texans acquired a 24 year old WR at a premium position with cap hits of just $776K in 2026 and $5.6M in 2027, plus the ability to exercise his fifth year option.
Nelson is obviously far more proven and plays a position Houston desperately needs. I would’ve loved to have him.
But he’s 29, in the final year of his deal, carries roughly a $9.8M remaining cap hit, and will be looking for a new contract after this season. His previous deal was 4 years, $80M.
Age, positional value, cap implications, and years of team control all matter when comparing trades.
Acting like acquiring MHJ somehow prevented Houston from trading for Nelson is equally silly. We don’t know that one deal impacted the other, or if the Colts were even willing to trade Nelson to a division rival.
Again this isn’t about pitting one player against the other. I would’ve loved both.
It’s simply about providing the necessary context that many are leaving out when directly comparing these two very different trades.
@Flakko_guapo@TexansHMA Seriously, someone using some Twitter pseudonym commenting on the commentary bravery of others is peak level stupidity. Thanks for the laugh, Fakko
@Flakko_guapo@TexansHMA You mean “say it with my chest” like a rando on Twitter who doesn’t use his real name? Also, is it “behind his back” if it’s, y’know, ON THE INTERNET? Do you know what “behind his back” means? Are you really this dumb? I have LOTS of questions
.@SeanTPendergast said J.J. McCarthy joins a long list of quarterbacks "that it feels like has no business coming into your place & beating you" but find a way to do it against the #Texans.
@@LandryLocker said he thinks the biggest problem with this team is "the offense is not allowed to have an off week for this team to win."

I DESPISE this answer from DeMeco about how the offense handled or used their weapons vs NYG (basically asking why did you run so much f***ing jumbo with one RB, bad run blocking but a bunch of good WRs).
Texans gunna come out the bye with a healthy Blake Fisher & run double jumbo with him and Braden watch lmao
This is where we’re at in the NFL folks!!
44 got hit with a 15 yd penalty & is prob gonna get a good size fine to go with it.
You gotta be kiddin me!!
