This will presumably […]

No matter how good things seem to be, it can always get bad in a hurry. Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker was just named to his first Pro Bowl after another standout season. But in his first game since earning the honor, he was about as bad as we’ve ever seen him. Just before halftime, the […]

The ever-expanding soylent green blob that is today’s NFL empire has again deftly entered your holiday consciousness. It’s pro football’s way of handing out gifts, and by that I mean tempting fans to pony up hard-earned money on teams and late-season matchups that too often lack the requisite football drama promised in board room PowerPoint […]

The answer to that question really starts on Saturday night as the Texans have a chance to make the Sunday game against the Jaguars, only important to the Jaguars.

Another week, another UGLY win. This time, Houston inched their way past the Las Vegas Raiders in one of the more mediocre performances in the DeMeco Ryans era. The offense looked stumped and the defensive line finally showed cracks. Whether the Texans are playing like a “playoff team” or not, they’re at the precipice of […]
The Chargers have waited almost an entire calendar year to get a shot at revenge against the Texans. Back in January, Houston’s defense picked off Justin Herbert four times en route to bouncing the Bolts from the postseason in a game many in The Bolt wish they could completely forget. The thing is, whatever motivation […]
