The Texans Have A Problem Defending The Deep Ball - Yahoo

Following a historically bad 0-5 start, Robert Saleh addresses the growing pressure to sideline his struggling quarterback while the franchise spirals toward a potential lost season.

C.J. Stroud shredded an injury-depleted secondary while Tennessee’s offense vanished in a dismal 17-yard second half, cementing a historic winless streak and shifting the divisional rivalry’s power balance.

Pete Prisco shares his latest Power Rankings for the 2026 NFL season, including some big climbs up the board for some of last week's top teams Our social team at CBS Sports HQ did a video this week asking this question:Who's the biggest disappointment, the Los Angeles Chargers or the Houston Texans? Both teams are 0-4 and look like teams that will be watching come playoff time. Before the season, the Texans were a trendy pick to represent the AFC in the Super Bowl, while many thought the Chargers would be livened up by having Mike McDaniel as their new offensive coordinator. Instead, the first four weeks have been disasters for both teams. At 0-4, they have big problems. The Chargers' offensive issues are a concern. The Texans' supposedly dominant defense hasn't been great either. They were being compared to the 1985 Chicago Bears defense before the season, and yet the Dallas Cowboys gutted them in their victory Sunday.

Pete Prisco reveals all of his Week 4 picks, including the Browns upsetting the Steelers and the 49ers over the Broncos See ya, September. Gladly. With this week's NFL games, the first of October, it's time to put the stink of my picks in September away. It wasn't great. I went 8-8 straight up last week and 6-9-1 against the spread. That brings my straight-up record to 29-19 for the season. My ATS mark is a dismal 21-26-1. Let's just say I am happy October is here. The first two weeks of October are when we start getting a true gauge on the NFL teams. We find out who is a contender or pretender. That makes it a little easier to pick games. I hope anyway. The goal now is to get over .500 ATS. Then it's time to act like a contender. Let's go. All lines via DraftKings; All times ETIndianapolis Colts at Washington Commanders (+3.5)London on Sunday, 9:30 a.m. on NFL Network (Stream: Fubo -- try for free)Both teams won for the first time last week and now head to London to play this week. Then Colts defense showed improvement last week, while the Commanders defense made some big plays. Look for the Colts and Commanders to both score a lot, but it's the Colts who will win it late.

With their star receiver cleared for the Battle of Texas, C.J. Stroud must ignite a struggling unit to overcome defensive absences and a winless season start.
