Houston, TX – The new season is finally, finally upon the world. With the first game on Sept 9th, the NFL returns to games that count for real. Real football, and the chance for real sellouts with real-live, three-dimensional fans. Players will actually take the field and the stars will play for the entire game, if they can. It is a generally considered a great thing. This is a time for excitement…at least for most teams.
However, not every franchise can look to the regular season with high spirits. For the Houston Texans, there is some optimism, but given the sheer disappointment of missing some key goals/milestones from the last game and the end of preseason, it is best considered guarded.
