discounted either after beating Houston in NRG Stadium Sunday. A late-season run for the Texans won’t be easy with multiple playoff teams still in their path. Houston has the 10th-best odds to win the Super Bowl (+3,000) and the fourth-best odds to win the AFC Championship (+1,000) on FanDuel. The way the Texans have played recently doesn’t inspire confidence that they’ll make a deep postseason run, but Houston is still well positioned to make one if it can win against Kansas City and Baltimore in December. Not an easy task, but both teams have shown flaws in recent weeks.
The Houston Texans were looking for a pivotal AFC South win as they hosted the Tennessee Titans but unfortunately things did not go as planned as the Titans came into NRG Stadium and left with a 32-27 victory dropping the Texans to 7-5 on the year and making the race for the divisional crown just a bit closer. The Texans’ offense got off to a hot start, scoring the game’s first touchdown but things didn’t quite hold throughout the game as the offensive line struggled once again allowing quarterback C.J. Stroud to be sacked four times and not being able…
Losing to the Tennessee Titans was enough to have Houston Texans leaning over the edge of admitting defeat for 2024. Losing Jalen Pitre in the slot might be what pushes them past the point of no return. Pitre suffered a partial tear to his pectoral muscle and is now expected to be out “for a while,” according to Texans coach DeMeco Ryans. He was the x-factor for the defense up the middle and a reliable option in coverage because of his durability. Sitting at 7-5, the Texans must find a way to win on Sunday before the bye week. Several…
The Houston Texans have lost three of their last four games, including a 32-27 Week 12 loss to the then-2-8 Tennessee Titans. And while the Texans lost the game, it wasn’t their only loss of the day. According to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, safety Jalen Pitre is expected to miss “multiple weeks” with a partial pectoral tear he sustained Sunday. Pelissero adds that surgery isn’t expected as of now, but there is also no exact timeline for Pitre’s return, either. However, there is a chance he plays again this season. The Texans can’t afford to lose Pitre on the…
HOUSTON – Now that hard-hitting Texans nickel Jalen Pitre is out indefinitely with a partial tear of his pectoral with a second opinion being sought on whether he’ll undergo surgery or attempt to play again this season, this injury to a key player changes the equation for a defense that relied heavily on his tackling skills. Pitre got hurt Sunday against the Tennessee Titans while tackling wide receiver Tyler Boyd and caught the brunt of a collision with teammate Henry To’oTo’o. It was initially diagnosed as a shoulder injury. A magnetic resonance imaging exam revealed the extent of the injury…
As the 2024 tennis season winds down, players are eagerly anticipating some well-deserved rest and training. The hectic tour has taken its toll on top-ranked athletes like Carlos Alcaraz, Jannik Sinner, Iga Swiatek, Jessica Pegula, and even the legend, Novak Djokovic. Despite their resilience in maintaining top-ten rankings, fatigue, and injuries have been constant for the players throughout the grueling schedule. It’s almost impossible to go on when your body is reaching its limit. During a recent press conference, ITF President David Haggerty addressed the performance of the Billie Jean King Cup and Davis Cup this season. He highlighted the…
Carlos Alcaraz has already confirmed one grass tournament for the 2025 season as the 21-year-old Spaniard has signed up to play at the cinch Championships, the event announced. For the world No. 3 – who made his debut at the Queen’s Club in 2023 – it will be his third consecutive appearance at the event. In 2022, the Spanish tennis star was scheduled to play at the prestigious grass tournament for the first time. But sadly, it didn’t happen because he was forced to withdraw from the tournament. However, Alcaraz was able to compete at Queen’s in 2023. And it…
Liverpool head coach Arne Slot and his side are facing a mouth-watering run of matches You don’t bear a grudge. Real Madrid beat us. That’s a few times now, including at Anfield. I think Arne Slot should show the players that game. Show them that 5-2 because that was a low, a real low of the Jurgen Klopp reign. That night, we got absolutely battered. We were awful and they were good. And I think it would be good to show the players that game back, just to let them know, because you’ve got to be on the ball. A…
Mo Salah‘s assertion that he is “more out than in” at Liverpool next season due to a lack of formal contract offers has led fans to vent at the club’s owners. Salah gave a rare interview with the assembled press after Liverpool’s 3-2 win over Southampton, during which he said he was “disappointed” at there being no progress in talks over a new deal. The Egyptian’s contract expires at the end of the season and he told reporters: “We are almost in December and I haven’t received any offers yet to stay in the club. I’m probably more out than…
John Stones is a doubt for Manchester City’s top-of-the-table Premier League clash with Liverpool this weekend after he sat out of training on Monday. The England international was substituted at half-time of City’s 4-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday night and is now an injury worry for his side’s upcoming matches against Feyenoord and Liverpool. Stones was one of several absentees for the Etihad outfit on Monday afternoon as they were put through their paces at the City Football Academy ahead of Tuesday’s clash against Arne Slot’s former side. But there was some good news for Pep Guardiola as,…
