The Texans' performance against the Kansas City Chiefs last week left much to be desired in all phases. “I think you learn a lot in the first game, especially this one,” said head coach and general manager Bill O’Brien. Houston’s next assignment doesn’t get much easier as they host Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens this Sunday; the same team that destroyed Houston 41-7 last season. “He’s (Jackson) just got a very unique skillset. Obviously he’s very fast, he’s very quick.”With Jackson already in mid-season form, the Texans defense and first-year defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver have their hands full.

HOUSTON – The timing was right for Texans general manager and head coach Bill O’Brien to open up about his opinions and emotions following the death of Houston native, George Floyd. “The Floyd family has been an unbelievable example for this country ... topped off by yesterday, with 60,000 people down there at the (Discovery) Green in downtown Houston," O’Brien said.

You’re finding a trade partner that will be able to pay DeAndre Hopkins, that was a big part of it.

I feel good about those guys learning, seeing because you can still teach and show film, get up on the board and draw something.

The Texans general manager and head coach Bill O’Brien made the decision to send Hopkins and a fourth-round pick to Arizona. Hopkins is one of the most dynamic wide receivers in the NFL and has been key to the Texans offense. The Texans other wide receivers, Kenny Stills and Will Fuller, have both battled injuries. The Texans clearly will need a wide receiver, but getting a top pick will be difficult as the Texans don’t have a first-round pick. This is the first major trade move O’Brien has made as the official general manager of the Texans, though he was behind the Jadaveon Clowney trade last season as well.

HOUSTON – Houston Texans Head Coach Bill O’Brien, the topic of much talk following the team’s loss against the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday, has apologized for some talk of his own -- an epic rant caught on camera after a game earlier in the football season. TMZ.com acquired video of the incident in which a heckler screamed, “You suck!” at the team as the players and coaches made their way through the tunnel during the game against the Denver Broncos.

Houston, TX – A connection from Deshaun Watson to Carlos Hyde helped sealed the Texans Wild Card win, 22-19, against the Buffalo Bills last week. “These times don’t come around often, so you have to cherish it,” Hyde said on the Texans making it the AFC Divisional playoff game. Hyde came to the Texans from Kansas CityTexans Head Coach Bill O’Brien faced Hyde when Hyde was in college at Ohio State, and O’Brien was the head coach at Penn State. When the Chiefs approached the Texans for a trade, O’Brien knew Hyde would be a quality addition to their roster.

WATSON, THE TRUCKIn the third quarter, Watson had 20 yards to go to get the Texans into the end zone, and the first 15 were easy. DESHAUN, THE MAGNIFICENTAfter leading the Texans to 19 consecutive points, Watson had overtime to get the win. “You add Deshaun Watson to a spark, you’re going to have one hell of a fire,” said Texans defensive end J.J. Watt.

HOUSTON – The Texans’ final regular-season game will be with a familiar opponent, the Tennessee Titans. Sure, the Texans just beat the Titans two weeks ago. Although a Texans win could spoil the Titans slim playoff chances, don’t expect this team to eagerly play the role of spoilers. They’ve only won a single playoff game since O’Brien took over as head coach. “We have to get past the first round and second round and winning that game.
