It's really unfair to have a team coming off a Thursday game to play a team coming off a Monday night game. Bye weeks can't be avoided but you'd think there are 20-odd teams coming off Sunday games they could schedule for the Thursday-night's next week on the schedule. You're giving one team approx. twice the healing/prep time as the other.

Squandered is right. Three blowout losses, one embarrassment against the Colts and an "acceptable" loss in Carolina. They did not even come close to winning any of the games they lost so they must really feel lucky to be 4-5.
The Jets are a hard team to figure. They started out hot and then they've collapsed as the injuries have piled up. They're a team the Texans *can* match up with plus they'll be at home. If they can somehow manage to win 2 of the next 3, they set up nicely for the home stretch (after losses to New England and Indy). They close with Jacksonville and Tennessee. That winds up as an 8-8 season and maybe 9-7 if they can pull off another miracle but I'm not predicting that.

It would also be a great time to beat the Colts in Indy...... During that game, you know the announcers will inform us viewers, "You know, the Texans have never won in Indianapolis" 528 times.  I would really like to see that comment die a harsh death....I'm starting to feel a bit better about this Jets game.... I'm seeing some sharp action leaning towards the Texans side. But that doesn't mean anything - the sharps can be wrong..... They're just less wrong than the general public over time....

The Texans are promoting former New York Giants and Baltimore Ravens running back Akeem Hunt to the active roster from the practice squad, according to sources not authorized to speak publicly.
The Texans cut outside linebacker Kourtnei Brown to create a roster spot for Hunt. The Texans need depth and speed at running back. Chris Polk is dealing with a hamstring injury and is listed as questionable on the injury report after not practicing Friday. Hunt ran a 4.37 in the 40-yard dash at his Pro Day workout. He had a 37.5-inch vertical leap, a 3.96 short shuttle and a 10-2 broad jump. Hunt finished his career with over 4,600 all-purpose yards, ranking him among the top backs in Purdue history along with Kory Sheets and Mike Alstott. http://blog.chron.com/ultimatetexans...ractice-squad/ I like it. When is the last time if ever we saw a sub 4.4 guy at RB for the Texans ? With Foster gone, they need to have a new name in the DC at RB, and do we ever need some speed, a guy with a burst taking handoffs.
