Conspiracy Theory: The Quarterbacks

Matt Schaub

Is there something the Houston Texans front office and coaching staff isn’t telling us? I am of the belief that something is being covered up by the Texans in regards to the Quarterback position. We have seen the Texans bring in plenty of backup Quarterbacks in recent years and have them compete for a spot on the team, but we can’t recall the Texans bringing in a legitimate player to challenge Schaub. The Texans had Sage Rosenfels which was the last legit backup, then there was Matt Leinart, and now John Beck? What is really going on in the Texans…

In this series we look at the moves the Houston Texans have made since the free agency period and during the draft and let you know what is “really” going on at Reliant and with the team in 2012.           One of the more interesting positions to keep an eye on heading into training camp is what is occurring at the offensive line position.

In this series we look at the moves the Houston Texans have made since the free agency period and during the draft and let you know what is “really” going on at Reliant and with the team in 2012.                                            We’ve heard it before: “In a Wade Phillips’ one-gap 3-4 defensive scheme, a big beastly nose tackle isn’t a necessity.”  It may not be a “necessity,” but wouldn’t it be better?  Our current starting NT Shaun Cody himself initially expressed some reservation about his role and size to get the job…

Conspiracy Theory: Linebackers

Barwin

In this series we look at the moves the Houston Texans have made since the free agency period and during the draft and let you know what is “really” going on at Reliant and with the team in 2012.     We all know that in Wade Phillips’ 3-4 system that they require a lot of linebackers, but with the recent increase in outside linebackers being added in the last couple of years indicates that the Texans are preparing for more losses at that position. With the current cap situation the Texans could be bracing for the loss of Connor…

Conspiracy Theory: The Wide Receivers

Johnson-and-Walter

In this series we look at the moves the Houston Texans have made since the free agency period and during the draft and let you know what is “really” going on at Reliant and with the team in 2012.   All we have heard, since we can remember, the past few seasons is that the Houston Texans need to get Andre Johnson some help on the other side of him. Since 2006, Kevin Walter has been a cornerstone in Gary Kubiak’s offense and has put up 285 receptions for 3,565 yards and 22 touchdowns, not to mention he has started 76…
