I read something about dinosaurs and that’s all I’ve been thinking about. The little weasels living under their terrestrial rule, needing their demise to overtake the Earth, and lead us to where we are now. This is all I want to talk about. Instead, we will discuss the recent news, where the Texans are entering the 2019 NFL Draft, and the most interesting teams entering the 2019 NFL Draft.  Learn more about your ad choices.

I hear crickets chirping outside my window. Rubbing of their violins replaced the open curtained singing birds. No AC. It’s 77 degrees. Free agency is pretty much dead.  To pop off the kind of sort of end of free agency, and move on ahead to the 2019 NFL Draft, Matt and his good friend Taylor give their five favorite free agent moves, and the five ooziest open sores, and in this metaphor, the sores are their five worst free agent moves.  Learn more about your ad choices.

The Spring is here. It’s time to dust off the Mary Oliver poetry, RIP :(, The Sound And The Fury, The Hotelier’s Goodness, The Sidekick’s Happiness Hours, Gaslight Anthem’s American Slang, and free agency is now kind of sort of over. Teams are waiting until the NFL Draft, while the rest of us sit in in the flowers, bronze in the sun, and split our hearts open. Damn I love this time of year.  ANYWAYS, BFD and I discuss the Texans’ free agency since last time we left off (the Bradley Roby and Briean Boddy-Calhoun signings), where the Texans can go from here, release our pent up A.J. McCarron signing rage, discuss Matt Kalil and the Texans tackle situation, and what we are thinking about as draft season gets rowdy.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Hundreds of players are out there in the lobby, waiting to get assigned to a team to play. If only broadband wizardry could group players to teams and put them in the best place to succeed.  Sadly, they don’t. Not yet. Even if worked like that, you would just end up with Major League Baseball instead. This is where we come in. For this episode we go over our favorite free agency fits.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

There are so many moves. Too many moves. So much money and not enough talent to spend it on. It’s exhausting trying to keep up. I now know how Tom Hanks feels in Catch Me If You Can. Just hold still for a second will ya.  Matt and Taylor discuss free agency as a whole. Topics include: comparisons between the Antonio Brown and Odell Beckham Jr. trade, if Le’Veon Bell or Antonio Brown came away a winner by leaving Pittsburgh, all the other trades that happened, Cole Beasley having my baby, and the weird teams: Dallas, Buffalo, Detroit, and Tennessee.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Free agency, that time when flowers are spurting from the ground, money is squirting around the NFL, and everyone is ecstatic about their team’s big moves, or furious about their team’s lack of action.  Matt Weston and BFD break down the Texans’ free agency so far. Topics include: Angelo Blackson getting paid, the safety market, what losing Tyrann Mathieu and Kareem Jackson may mean, the addition of Tashaun Gipson and Bradley Roby, and the lust in our hearts that was never fulfilled.  Learn more about your ad choices.

We are walking down the steps and into the pool. A shin in, maybe an upper thigh perhaps, not soaked, but wet with the waters of the 2019 NFL Offseason. Players can be franchise tagged. The 2019 NFL Combine begins tomorrow. In celebration of the general managing, Matt Weston and his good friend Taylor discuss the four most interesting teams as we get all the way into the offseason: the Indianapolis Colts, Dallas Cowboys, Pittsburgh Steelers, and San Francisco 49ers.  Learn more about your ad choices.

The 2018 Houston Texans season review has been resuscitated. I wanted to record this two weeks ago, things happened, but we are back, we are here, handing out NFL awards from the 2018 NFL Season. These are slightly different awards. There’s no MVP, or coach of the year, instead it’s XOXO Gossip Girl of the Year, Throw of the Year, Aesthetic of the Year, and things of that nature.  Learn more about your ad choices.

I’m sunburned and my sides are chafed. I’m strong, full, and ready to post. The 2019 NFL offseason has begun.  This week, Matt and BFD preview the Texans’ 2019 offseason. We discuss the newest Texans’ news, break down what cuts the Texans should make, what Houston should do with Jadeveon Clowney, Tyrann Mathieu, Kareem Jackson, and Alfred Blue, who they should look at as free agent targets, and any draft crushes we have.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Ahhh! How fitting. The Super Bowl no one wanted to watch was a game everyone hated to watch. Everyone except for me. I loved the symmetry of that, and symmetry in general. And I also loved how a meaningless post-modern offensive heavy no one can tackle start to the season ended in the lowest scoring football game of all-time. You should try rooting for the Patriots someday. It’s pretty nice.  This week, Matt and BFD discuss the newest Houston Texans news (coaching changes), and review Super Bowl LIII. Topics include: Tim Kelly, Jared Goff’s inability to exist outside the offense, Los Angeles and New England's defensive game plans, LA's offensive line troubles, the few great defensive plays in a defensive game, that triple coverage throw to Gronk, and the Patriots’ power run game.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Rams. Patriots. The worst of the four possible Super Bowl outcomes awaits us and our bellies rolling in queso, five layer dips, chili, hot pockets with toothpicks through them, and football shaped broccoli. There will be commercials and movie previews. An awful halftime show. We will be Americans. And we still watch and love and enjoy and savor.  Matt Weston and his good friend Taylor banter and sometimes preview the BIG GAME.  Learn more about your ad choices.
