The 2014 Houston Texans have a new coach, new players, new hope and the same dedicated fan base of Houston-based rappers. As in years past, they took to Twitter on game day to comment on the home team's gridiron action.
And, as in years past, Rocks Off spent Sunday afternoon reading their game day tweets. Good thing, too. As has been the case over more than half the season, the tweets were more entertaining than the Texans. The team's sixth loss against five wins came at the hands of Andy Dalton, A.J. Green and the rest of the Cincinnati Bengals -- but mostly Dalton and Green. On a day when even J.J. Watt couldn't score a touchdown for the offense, that was enough in a 22-13 contest that wasn't as close as it sounds.

7. When, Indeed?
When will the organization of the Houston Texans be adamant about improving their secondary?

6. Bengals 9, Texans 3 at the Half. Still Not As Close As It Seemed.
there's an angel in the endzone for us to only be down 6 at the half.

2. I Agree, @MrLuke713. A Penalty Flag Should Be Thrown Against the Guilty Party When This Occurs.
