Texans LB Brooks Reed is teased by 610′s Barry Warner about his long hair after the Texans victory to the Jacksonville Jaguars, but that doesn’t phase him as he’s focused on what he needs to do on defense.
Since Mario Williams suffered the season-ending pectoral injury, Reed has started three games in his place. He’s gotten a sack in each of his last two starts.

Statistically both teams are very impressive and balanced.
Ravens - 2nd in PPG 3rd in PPG allowed
Texans - 6th in PPG 7th in PPG allowed
Both teams are great at running the football. Arian Foster and Ray Rice are two of the best backs in the game and they're both having awesome seasons.
The biggest question for the Ravens defense will be who covers Andre Johnson? Will they split the assignment amongst their DB's? They don't have one standout CB but rookie CB Jimmy Smith has made quite the early season impression. Teams have done a decent job in containing A. Johnson to this point but this has opened the door for TE Owen Daniels. He leads the team with 18 receptions 310 yards and 4 TD's.
The most alarming stat that either of the teams have is the Ravens pass defense. They rank 28th in the NFL allowing 265 passing YPG. Is this a result of the Ravens stout run defense(3rd in the NFL) or is the Ravens secondary vulnerable? Do teams just concede the fact that they can't run on Baltimore with? We could find that out this week.
Key Matchup
Texans Passing Offense vs Ravens Pass Defense
It's awfully tough to run on the Ravens with Haloti Ngata and Terrell Suggs in the front 7. Fortunately for Houston, Ray Lewis is out this week so that help their chances.
Houston will have to air it out. They have the weapons to do it. Baltimore has been average at best in defending the pass this season. Some of it is due to the higher amount of passing attempts like I previously mentioned, but 28th is still very bad for a team that is supposed to have an elite defense.
The Ravens pass D will be put to the test when Matt Schaub and his 101 QB rating come to town.
That was an amazing game. One moment, the Texans would do something terrible. And they’d follow it up with a tremendous play, or at least a play that gave them a chance to win. Coaches will go nuts watching the video because the Texans had chance upon chance to win this game. And… They also [...]

ABOUT THE FIGHT
Las Vegas, NV (USA) – The wait for the much-anticipated third fight between UFC® lightweight champion Frankie Edgar and unbeaten top contender Gray Maynard is finally over. The Ultimate Fighting Championship® announced today that Edgar and Maynard will settle the score when the organization returns to the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas on Saturday, Oct. 8. If one major title fight wasn’t enough, UFC officials also confirmed that UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo will defend his crown against the always-dangerous Kenny Florian. “Frankie and Gray had a Fight of the Year candidate the last time they met and I expect nothing different this time around in Houston,” UFC President Dana White said. “Both guys truly believe they won the last fight and the wait for their third fight is over. On Oct. 8, neither of these guys plans on leaving it to the judges.“Aldo’s been running through guys at 145-pounds, but Florian is the most experienced guy he’s ever fought,” White continued. “Kenny looked really sharp against Diego Nunes in his last fight and Diego is a guy who trains with Aldo. I think Kenny is out to prove that he can get over the hump and win his first UFC world title.”In addition to the two world title fights, former number one middleweight contender Chael Sonnen hopes to spark another run at the belt when he locks horns with the heavy-handed Brian Stann, while heavyweightsDave Herman and Mike Russow are set to collide. Plus, a pivotal lightweight bout pits Melvin Guillardagainst submission ace Joe Lauzon.Tickets for UFC®136: EDGAR vs. MAYNARD 3, presented by Bud Light, go on sale Friday, Aug. 19 at 10 a.m. CT and are priced at $350, $250, $150, $100, $75 and $50.

Tickets and VIP packages are on sale NOW at www.ufcfanexpo.comA tremendous boxer with great takedowns and poise, UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar (fighting out of Toms River, N.J.) earned back-to-back wins over the legendary BJ Penn in 2010 before battling to an epic draw with Maynard in January. The 29-year-old heads to Houston with the sole mission of defending the title and upending the only man to ever defeat him.“In reality, this fight is everything to me,” Edgar, 13-1-1, said. “This is everything I worked for and this is a defining fight in my career. I want to end this chapter with Gray on a positive note. I expect more fireworks in this third fight based on how both Gray and I fight. I’ve been training really hard and I expect to come out on top.”Since joining the UFC in 2007, Gray Maynard (fighting out of Las Vegas, Nev.) has proven to be one of the most dominant contenders in the lightweight division. Holder of wins over the likes of Jim Miller, Roger Huerta and Kenny Florian, the 32-year-old former collegiate wrestling standout at Michigan State has vowed to leave Houston with the title he rightfully believes is his.“I’m always expecting 110 percent from Frank Edgar,” Maynard, 11-0-1, 1NC, said. “That’s why I’m gonna be more prepared and determined than ever before. I thought I won the last fight. This time, there won’t be any doubt in the judges’ minds or the rest of the world that I’m the UFC lightweight champion. This fight means everything to me and I’m going to prove it on Oct. 8th in Houston, Texas.”Recognized by many as one of the sport’s top three pound-for-pound best, UFC featherweight champion Jose Aldo (fighting out of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) has torn through the likes of Urijah Faber, Manny Gamburyan and Mark Hominick in recent outings. With his devastating display of striking and knockout power, the 24-year-old titleholder may face the toughest test of his young career when he faces Florian in Texas. It’s a fact that has the once-beaten fighter as motivated as ever.“Kenny Florian is a tough fighter with experience in many weight classes,” Aldo, 19-1, said. “This is an exciting fight for the fans and will show why the featherweight division is one of the toughest in the UFC.”Fresh off a win over Diego Nunes in his featherweight debut in June, fan favorite Kenny Florian (fighting out of Boston, Mass.) now has his sights set on claiming his first world title. A gifted submission artist with underrated striking, the 35-year-old “Ken-Flo” believes he’s found a home at 145-pounds – a home he plans on ruling for a long time.“Being at 145 pounds, I feel like I’m one of the better, stronger athletes in the division,” Florian, 16-5, said. “Jose Aldo is the most dangerous opponent I’ve ever faced, but I’ve never felt more prepared. Most people are intimidated by Jose, but I plan on bringing the fight to him. I expect this to be a really exciting fight that ends in me realizing my dreams of becoming a world champion.”One of the best middleweight matchups of the year pits contenders Chael Sonnen (fighting out of West Linn, Ore.) and Brian Stann (fighting out of Scranton, Pa.) against one another. After nearly defeating champion Anderson Silva last Aug., the 34-year-old Sonnen (26-10-1) wants nothing more than another shot at “The Spider.” Getting there might prove to be a treacherous path, as in his way stands “All-American” Stann (11-3), who is coming off back-to-back knockout victories over Jorge Santiago and Chris Leben.A potential heavyweight slugfest is scheduled for Oct. 8 as Dave Herman (fighting out of Temecula, Calif.) meets Mike Russow (fighting out of Chicago, Ill.). Nicknamed “Pee Wee,” the 26-year-old Herman (21-2) has proved to be no joke in the Octagon, knocking out John Olav Einemo in his UFC debut in June. He’ll face another heavyweight on the rise at Toyota Center in Russow (14-1, 1NC), a winner of three straight, including consecutive KOs of Todd Duffee and Jon Madsen.Believing one more win will earn him a coveted lightweight title shot, Melvin Guillard (fighting out of New Orleans, La.) looks to extend his winning streak to six when he meets submission ace Joe Lauzon (fighting out of East Bridgewater, Mass.). Nicknamed “The Young Assassin,” Guillard (46-9-3, 1NC), 28, is riding consecutive knockout victories over Evan Dunham and Shane Roller. However, his road to gold is paved with a serious potential roadblock in 27-year-old Lauzon (20-6), who is fresh off an outstanding submission over Curt Warburton in June.

HOUSTON -- Andre Johnson turned upfield, fell awkwardly forward and clutched the back of his right leg.
In past seasons, an injury to their All-Pro receiver would've doomed the Houston Texans. That was before they had Arian Foster. Foster rushed for 155 yards and scored the go-ahead touchdown after Johnson left with a hamstring injury, leading the Texans to a17-10 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. "I go into every contest thinking that I'm the go-to guy," Foster said. "When the flow of the game starts going, we need certain things, and you've got to be there for your team." Johnson was back on the sideline late to watch Houston (3-1) finish off Ben Roethlisberger and the injury-plagued Steelers (2-2). Houston coach Gary Kubiak said Johnson would undergo tests Sunday night, so his status remained uncertain for next week's game against Oakland. Texans owner Bob McNair told ESPN he was not "overly concerned" about the injury and would wait for test results before speculating on its impact. "Now, if we have to go without him for a period," Kubiak said, "we're going to have to really ask some guys to step up to the plate." The Steelers may have to do the same without their franchise quarterback. Roethlisberger was beat up all day, sacked five times behind an offensive line missing two regular starters. The Steelers also lost running back Rashard Mendenhall (right hamstring), linebacker James Harrison (right eye) and defensive end Aaron Smith (foot sprain) during the game. Roethlisberger played until the end, but he was wearing a protective boot on his left foot afterward. He wouldn't speculate on his availability for next week's game against Tennessee
