The Texans have already ruled out starting running back David Montgomery, starting safety Jalen Pitre, and wide receiver Tank Dell for Sunday's contest in London. 

The Houston Texans finally have life. Well, sort of. On this episode of the Texans Roundtable, Halk breaks down Houston’s dominant 26-3 win over the Tennessee Titans, C.J. Stroud’s continued resurgence and the immediate impact of DeMeco Ryans taking over defensive play-calling.

The Houston Texans are 0-4, but their latest loss looked completely different from the first three.

The Houston Texans are 0-2, and frustration is mounting after a disappointing 20-6 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Despite C.J. Stroud throwing for 353 yards and Houston's defense recording five sacks against Joe Burrow, the Texans failed to score a single touchdown.

Head Coach Demeco Ryans made it clear that it is a group effort. Your running back truly is only as good as the offensive line you have in front of it, you win as a team and lose as a team. Running back David Montgomery does not need to prove to anyone he is a good back, he's already given the proof [insert stats from his time on the Detroit Lions], but it's nice to see a coach hold everyone accountable. 

Today is the third meeting all-time between the Houston Texans and New England Patriots in the Divisional round of the AFC Playoffs. 

The Texans are down 0-2 in the series (2012, 2016), having lost both games on the road in Foxborough when Tom Brady was still at the helm at quarterback. 

The Houston Texans have finally reached the final week of an exhilarating regular season of football. Starting 0-3, and now threatening a 12th win, the Texans are primed to enter the postseason as a team that's prepared fo the worst that opposing teams have to throw at them. 

Their opponents for the afternoon, the Indianapolis Colts, are a team that's looking forward to putting 2025 in the rearview mirror. At 8-8 and having been playoff ineligible since last Saturday, there's not much they have to play for in week 18. 

The Jacksonville Jaguars defeated the Indianapolis Colts today, 23-17, at Lucas Oil Stadium. The win gives the Jaguars 12 wins on the season, and a very likely AFC South crown (and the third seed) due to their final game being against the three-win Tennessee Titans next Sunday. 

On the other side, the Houston Texans will play those same Colts with a chance to win the division in the event of a Jaguars loss. For now, the Texans occupy the sixth seed after defeating the Los Angeles Chargers yesterday afternoon. If the Buffalo Bills lose against the Philadelphia Eagles today, Houston will elevate to the fifth seed. 

The NFL is an "any given Sunday" type of entity, where any team can lose to any other team. With that said, the Las Vegas Raiders have made the first half of today's contest against the Texans surprisingly competitive. This is not the most ideal development for a Houston team that's trying to extend its win streak to seven. 

The Texans are one of the hottest teams in the NFL, and this week should be a great one to carry that momentum. Against a non-competitive Raiders team, Houston should be able to roll through this contest with ease and continue building toward a takeover of the division lead over the Jaguars. 

But just how dominant will the Texans' win be this week? There's no question that this game could be over early, especially if the defense shuts out Las Vegas.
