Latest blog entries from Houston teams across every league
There’s a tension between expectations and reality when it comes to high lottery picks. The third overall pick? Perfect. We’ve got a superstar. The first five picks in every NBA draft are superstars. It’s an unimpeachable fact. Only, it’s highly peachable. It can be peached to no end. A lot of high lottery picks don’t […]
The Houston Texans 2025 season is a dumpster fire. C.J. Stroud is in concussion protocol, the offensive line is in the witness protection program, and offensive coordinator Nick Caley needs to find a real estate agent back in New England. At 3-5, the Texans have a 26% chance to make the playoffs according to NFL.com. […]
The Day After the Day After…when the raw, immediate emotions from the aftermath of a game diminish into the realm of clarity and the proverbial (or literal) hangover no longer haunts the mind. With that, a review of Week 9: Goal line/Short Yardage offense…Ouuuccchhhh. Perhaps the most painful part of this game comes from the […]
The Houston Rockets won their fourth game in a row on Monday night, getting 27 big points from Amen Thompson to lead the way at the Toyota Center. Thompson also had 5 rebounds, 4 assists, a steal and a block, while shooting 11-for-18 from the field and 1-for-3 from deep. The block was a huge […]
Just when it seemed the Celtics were finding ways to work around their rebounding woes, Monday night’s matchup against the Jazz reminded them it’s still a work in progress. It was easy (and understandable) to chalk up Saturday night’s blowout loss to the Rockets as a “scheduled loss.” Houston had the size advantage, Boston was […]
The Dallas Mavericks returned home from Mexico to play their first true road game of the season (where the opponent was actually in their arena), looking to improve upon their 2-4 record. Unfortunately, the Rockets had other ideas, pushing the Mavs further away from .500, as Dallas fell 110-102. Let’s get to the grades! Max […]
P..J. Washington had a season-high 29 points and 12 rebounds Monday, but it wasn’t enough as the Houston Rockets continued their winning streak — now at four games — with a 110-102 victory over the Dallas Mavericks. Houston improved to 4-2 on the season while Dallas dropped to 2-5. The Mavericks played Monday’s game without […]
Coming off a back-to-back against the Philadelphia 76ers and Houston Rockets that they split, the Boston Celtics (3-5) opened the month of November by hosting the Utah Jazz (3-4), falling at home for a second straight game in a 105-103 final. In a wild final 5 minutes, the Celtics fought back from an 8-point deficit, […]
Well, the dust is still settling from that less-than-stellar result (at least for the home team) from the Broncos-Texans matchup. Even as we all try to make sense out of what transpired yesterday, the games continue, and we start to turn to the next matchup. To conclude the three-game homestand, the Texans (3-5) will play […]
The Dallas Mavericks (2-4) are still on the road Monday night, this time matching up against the Houston Rockets (3-2). Dallas most recently played and lost to the Detroit Pistons in Mexico City. The Rockets are riding a three game win streak after starting the season with two tough losses. Here’s the main things you […]

The Dallas Mavericks have returned to the United States after their 122-110 loss to the Detroit Pistons in Mexico City. Awaiting them are the Houston Rockets, winners of three straight games. This is the Mavericks’ first true road game of the 2025 season, as their first five games were spent at home before heading to […]
The Seattle Seahawks’ lone appearance (barring any flexing for the rest of the season) on Sunday Night Football was loud and eye-opening for much of America. If most of the country was asleep for the Monday night win over the Houston Texans, millions were wide awake to see Seattle destroy the Washington Commanders in their […]
BOSTON — Back at TD Garden for the first time since he was waived in July, JD Davison reflected on a three-year Celtics tenure that failed to set up an NBA breakthrough — but nonetheless prepared him for another opportunity in Houston. Ahead of the Celtics’ 128-101 loss to the Rockets on Saturday night, Davison […]
The Houston Rockets were one of the more active teams this past offseason. Not only did they pull off the blockbuster deal of the summer by adding Kevin Durant, they also extended virtually half of their roster in Fred VanVleet, Jabari Smith Jr., Aaron Holiday, Jeff Green, and Jae’Sean Tate. General Manager Rafael Stone also […]
The Jacksonville Jaguars (5-3) will face the Houston Texans (3-5) at 1:00 p.m. EST on Sunday, Nov. 9, at NRG Stadium. According to FanDuel Sportsbook, the Jaguars are 1.5-point underdogs and the total is set at 38.5 points. That is a low total! Over the past two and a half seasons, there have only been […]
There is always more than one way to look at these things. I suppose if we separate ourselves emotionally we can even manage to do that the day after. We predicted struggle earlier this week when we looked at the rankings in team sacks for the Texans’ opponents. We could also look at the fact […]
Just six games into the 2025-26 season, it’s time for fans of the Dallas Mavericks (2-4) to adjust some of their expectations for this year. That will be especially true when the Mavs travel to Houston for their first away game of the season on Monday against the Rockets (3-2) at the Toyota Center. The […]
After the sky was falling on the 0-2 Houston Rockets, they have rattled off three straight wins (mostly in blowout fashion though Toronto hung around) and sport the league’s best point differential. They welcome a Dallas Mavericks team to Toyota Center tonight. There was definitely a not-so-quiet contingent of the NBA media that were and […]
There was a lot to like in today’s game against the Denver Broncos, but so, SO much more to hate. I don’t even want to recap the Texans’ scoring drives because they relied, exclusively, on the Texans’ patented all-field goal offense. The defense came to play today. And, while the team came up short, they […]

Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. We didn’t have a regular Rockets question this week, but Houston featured prominently in the national Reacts poll […]
It’s currently halftime of the Texans game and they still have players left so likely as not they’ll be able to finish the second half. But that’s not it for football. We still got games on CBS and Fox, as prophesized by the folks at 506 Sports. Anyway, the maps. CBS LATE GAMES No map. […]

I’d like to direct this question to Sean Payton. This is Patrick with Battle Red Blog, because we’re professionals here; I simply wanted to ask what the bounty is you have on C.J. Stroud. Because I’ll pay double that for your players to NOT try to end our starting quarterback’s career. This is going to […]
