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 tweets, just like Johnny Manziel spent his reading a playbook. Ryan Mallet was promoted to starting quarterback for the contest in Cleveland, and he wasted no time taking the Browns to the super bowl by flushing away their dreams of a win and giving Texans fans something to smile about. Here's how the game was broken down by the rappers and by the numbers:
10. Alfred Blue, 36 Carries. 156 Yards
You're my boy BLUE!!

9. Andre Johnson, 7 Receptions. 68 Yards. One Welcomed Return to Relevance
Goddamn! Andre Johnson IS the man! @HoustonTexans #gotexans
