Upsets by the Jets, Ravens, Dolphins, and Texans ruined a lot of people’s Week 8 picks. As for now, I am staying above the .600 winning percentage mark after 120 contests. As for the Los Angeles Rams, they will return to action with a home date against the New Orleans Saints in Week 9. While the […]

Last week, Nick Caley was in our crosshairs. This week we turn our attention to the number one guy in charge. Nick Caserio’s tenure in Houston has certainly been mixed. It was bumpy in the beginning, but the Deshaun Watson deal and the draft that brought C.J. Stroud and Will Anderson certainly gave him a […]

The San Francisco 49ers’ defense didn’t have a great performance in the team’s 26-15 loss to the Houston Texans on Sunday, as they couldn’t contain quarterback C.J. Stroud, who had his best game of the year. Still, they’ve been one of the NFL’s best defenses this year, ranking inside the top 10 in points per […]

Thanks to the Laremy Tunsil trade with the Washington Commanders, Houston holds an extra second and fourth round pick. Plus, Washington sits at 3–5 amid a rash […]

Although the 49ers lost in Houston, the optimism around the team is growing following a trade for Keion White to help the defensive line, with more moves likely to be in the works. White, in tandem with the signing of Clelin Ferrell to the practice squad and another defensive lineman with Bryce Huff, and Yetur […]

A headline that makes little sense, given the current state of the San Francisco 49ers’ wide receiver room. Against the Houston Texans in Week 8, out of 29 total targets, only one wide receiver was targeted more than five times. In Jeremy Fowler and Dan Graziano’s weekly notebook, that receiver, Jauan Jennings, could be dealt […]

Magic is real. This may come as a shocking opening statement to read, but consider just what you saw on Sunday. Was the San Francisco 49ers vs. Houston Texans game what you were expecting? Did the Texans’ offense look like what they had last week? It may sound far fetched, but if this pass to […]

San Francisco 49ers edge rusher Sam Okuayinonu went down with an injury in the fourth quarter against the Houston Texans and is now considered day-to-day with an ankle injury. The team won’t have Bryce Huff for another week. Yetur Gross-Matos has been a rotational pass rusher. That leaves Mykel Williams, Robert Beal, and William Bradley-King, […]

The San Francisco 49ers started Sunday sluggish and spotted the Houston Texans 16 points before getting on the board, but by then, it was too little too late. The 49ers would cut the lead to eight, but the slow start proved too much to overcome, as Houston extended it to 11 and San Francisco couldn’t […]

Well, that didn’t go well at all. The San Francisco 49ers were dominated on both sides of the ball and sustained even more injuries across their defensive line. There was a point on Sunday afternoon where the 49ers were down one possession. The Texans won by 11 points, but the game within the game belonged […]

The San Francisco 49ers lost 26-15 in a maddening game against the Houston Texans. Turns out, not having Bryce Huff on a defense already running on fumes might make said defense worse. But it wasn’t all terrible. The defense did secure one significant milestone, specifically a turnover. But not just any turnover, an interception. The […]

The San Francisco 49ers continue to see-saw back and forth in the win and loss column. Week 8’s loss to the Houston Texans wasn’t all that shocking, given the quality of the opponent and the road team’s injuries. All is not lost for the 5-3 Niners. If you’re going to drop a game, let it […]

The rest of the NFC West was on bye, and no one had to lift a finger to put the Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles Rams into first place. All the 49ers had to do was lose to the Houston Texans 26-15. I know some will comment how the Seahawks manhandled the Texans last week, […]

Last week, the San Francisco 49ers defeated the Atlanta Falcons in their most impressive game of the season. Just a week later, the 49ers suffered their least impressive loss to the Houston Texans, dropping to 5-3 on the season in the 26-15 defeat in Week 8. The 49ers couldn’t overcome a lackluster first half, in […]

It’s another week and another surprising result in a rollercoaster season for the Houston Texans. Your Texans defeated the San Francisco 49ers 26-15, but the performance was more dominating than that on both ends of the game. The numbers will likely tell us as much, but we look anyway for the cumulative effect. The more […]
