I could maybe see Harbaugh going to Michigan, but that's really about the only way that I can see Jim go back to college football. As for Rex, he's a good coach with a god awful team. You could give Jimmy Johnson that roster and he would suck as a head coach.

And it's officially on the NFL's website too. That is a big shock.

Harbaugh is not going to Michigan. He will stay in the bay area no matter what.

Someone wanna explain to me how we don't get called with rocovery of that fumble? That you can see in the replay Sherman getting it? Thanks Zebras, your calls just lost us another one. I should make a list every time someone gets away with something against us. Commentators are looking at a (not called) hold on a replay of a Ram's TD and laughing at how "good" it was.

The Detroit Lions came back today to beat the Saints 24-23.

Bills win in the 4th quarter, with 0:05 left on the clock, at the 2 yard line. The drive was saved by a 24 yard play by Scott Chandler on 4th and 20. Shouldn't have even been that close against a team like the Vikings.

Probably wouldn't have been if both their running backs didn't go out.

I greatly respect Peyton Manning and all he has achieved in his career. Hated going against him against my Texans back when Peyton was with the Colts, but he's a great player and a sure-fire Hall of Famer. Congratulations to Peyton Manning on this accomplishment. With that out the way...
Texans at Steelers TONIGHT!
Two blue collar cities are ready to go at it tonight at beautiful Hines Field in Pittsburgh, PA. These two blue collar cities have two blue collar NFL teams. It is an AFC showcase tonight as my Houston Texans of the AFC South will take on the AFC North's Pittsburgh Steelers. As much as I tried to sell this game, there are two things these two teams also share- both have inept offenses and are 3-3 on the season so far. In a way, this game almost seems like looking in the mirror or facing a doppelganger. Which 3-3 team will improve to 4-3 after tonight? Or could we have a tie?
Betting time. PIT is installed as the favorite in this match by 3 with an over/under of 44.5. The real wild card in this game is if JaDeveon Clowney suits up and goes tonight. It also depends on how much action Clowney gets tonight. The usual suspects have to perform as well for HOU- Andre Johnson, Arian Foster, and of course... J.J. Watt. I have my doubts since this Houston team is still in recovery mode from last season and haven't shown too much this season. And, this is an ESPN game, and nothing brings "fail" out of Houston teams like ESPN and the "Always Hate Houston" jinxing/witchcraft. I have my doubts, but we'll see what happens.
Good luck to both Houston and Pittsburgh.

He will probably need another Super Bowl to make people actually respect him as that. It doesn't really matter though because he's a first-ballot HOF candidate anyway.

The Dallas Cowboys officially have the best record in football at 6-1. Philly was on bye this week so they are a half game out of the East. The New York football Giants are at 3-4, 3 games back and the Washington Redskins at 2-5 are 4 games back.

He's going to the hall of fame regardless. There's no question there.

Hey what do you know, another season, another Bears team not making the playoffs, that is so far. Weirder things have happened before, but I'm not that optimistic. At least we Chicagoans got the Bulls.
Trestman maybe an offensive minded coach, but his team seriously lacks playing with any fire. For all of Lovie Smith's faults, at least the Bear's played with tenacity. If the Bears flunk out of the race for playoffs and with a roster as stacked as it ever has been in years, Trestman is definitely going to be on the hot seat. Him and Mel Tucker.

Jay Cutler being a highly erratic QB isn't helping out the Bears, either.

No it doesn't, but the problems don't just start and end with him. The play calling too has been suspect.

That whole organization from top down really needs to be overhauled starting with owner Virginia McCaskey.

Damage control for the Texans failed late in the first half, and the Texans ended up failing again. This time, a 30-23 defeat. The Steelers might as well beat us like Alabama beat Texas A&M this past Saturday (for my college football fans). The Texans just don't have that fire anymore, seems like. Maybe Andre Johnson said it best last season- "we suck." My Texans are now 3-4 as the Steelers improve to 4-3.
So we failed again... and that concludes another week of NFL Football.

Another week of NFL action begins on Thursday with San Diego visiting Denver this Thursday Night. While there is still a lot of time left between now and that game, here is another assessment post of mine.
I think the Houston Texans have lost their fire and are losing their way. The 2014 Texans got off to a 3-1 start was fairly impressive. They have since lost three straight, including losses at Dallas in Overtime, at home to Indianapolis on Thursday night, and at Pittsburgh last night on Monday Night Football. The new swagger Bill O'Brien offers isn't exactly translating into wins. It almost seems like the work of Arian Foster, rookie Alfred Blue, Andre Johnson, and the dynamic J.J. Watt is going for nothing. The execution is not leading to winning football for whatever reason. I even remembered during one Texans loss someone on Facebook said J.J. Watt should be on a better team. The Texans are a sinking ship, but this sinking ship has talent. It just hasn't translated to regularity in wins. That is what concerns me moving forward in this season. At best, these Texans are an AFC Wild Card team. Unless Indianapolis fades down the stretch with Tennessee and Jacksonville playing like bottom feeders, we're not winning the AFC South. There is still a lot of season left and still time to improve. Question is... have the Texans dug themselves too deep a hole to escape out of (like my 2014 Houston Dynamo of Major League Soccer)? That question remains to be answered still with two more months of NFL action to go.
The Texans' next game is at Tennessee. They need to win this one because it's a division game.
There is my Texans assessment. If you want to assess your team at this point (or some other team), feel free to do so.
