Arian Foster's last four games. All quality opponents except maybe the Titans.
What disappoints me is the Texans lost three of the games by one score.

At Cowboys: 23 rushes, 157 yards (6.8 yards per carry) with 2 rushing TDs. 2 catches, 15 yards
Colts: 20 rushes, 109 yards (5.5 yards per carry) with 2 rushing TDs. 3 catches, 32 yards
At Steelers: 20 rushes, 102 yards (5.1 yards per carry). 4 catches, 13 yards with 1 receiving TD
At Titans: 20 rushes, 151 yards (7.6 yards per carry) with 2 rushing TDs. 4 catches, 22 yards with 1 receiving TD.

So his last four games: 519 rushing yards (6.5 yards per carry) with 6 rushing TDs and 2 receiving TDs. 8 Touchdowns total. I'm not sure if he can keep up that kind of pace over the next eight games, but if he can he'll end the season with huge numbers even despite his slow start this season (missing one game as well). He also had that 6-carry, 8-yard rushing game against the Bills that he played injured in. So basically he missed out on two games this year because of his hamstring injury. Give him a healthy two more games and he's probably neck and neck, if not ahead, of DeMarco Murray for the rushing title this year.

I just want to see the Texans beat the Eagles on Sunday. A 5-4 record and two-game winning streak going into the bye week would put the Texans in position to possibly make the playoffs. They would be no worse than one game back of the Colts for first place in the AFC South. Maybe tied if the Colts lose to the Giants on Monday Night.

But I think that final wild card spot is more reasonable. But hopefully the Steelers win the AFC North because we don't own the tiebreaker with them. We still play the Ravens, Bengals and Browns. I'd rather see the Texans win those three games and own the tiebreaker for the final wild-card spot in the AFC. They beat the Bills already. Ultimately I think the final wild card spot in the AFC will come down to the Texans and the second place team in the AFC North.

TL:DR version: The Texans just need to win. Take things game by game. A winning streak will solve everything.

Fucking clowney unlikely to play this weekend.

Great

It sucks bro. We may be without both Jadeveon Clowney and Brian Cushing. Game-time decision for both.

Apparently he has an illness? What is it? My goodness gracious. This young man can't stay healthy. I'm starting to wish we could go back and trade down with that first overall pick. We could have probably drafted a couple of much needed starters instead.

The Texans do have their bye week coming up next. So if Clowney and Cushing need two weeks to heal then so be it. But in terms of having any hope to make the playoffs the Texans have to beat the Eagles on Sunday. They could be tied with the Colts at 5-4 if the Giants beat the Colts on Monday Night.

Mike Mohamed played well against the Titans in place of Cushing. The Texans also signed Zac Diles earlier this week.

Put one on, iRTB. You don't even use a signature at the moment.

Three different variations of Ryan Mallett sigs. We're ready to rally behind him.
Using the Texans colors as the font: Liberty White, Steel Blue and Battle Red.







10 more days until the Texans play at Cleveland. I can't wait. If the Texans win to reach 5-5 they may be able to salvage this season. Ryan Mallett has a rocket arm and can make all the proper throws down the field - the type of throws that Fitzpatrick couldn't make - so I'm hoping to see the passing game come alive.

Gosh those are all so ugly.

Not much stock to work with. He's about to become a household name once he lights the league on fire hopefully,

I really hope he does, but I can't imagine the Texans actually having a good quarterback.

It just seems.....


Unfathomable.

J.J. Watt will play quarterback if push comes to shove. He's done everything else. LOL

He's played TE a few times as well. Lol
