The Sean Salisbury Show

Rolling into Week 5 in the NFL, the Texans kick off the season with a rough start following their first 4 games, standing 1-3. Turning things around quickly, they now enter the BYE Week standing at 2-3 following their recent two victories over the Tennessee Titans and the Baltimore Ravens. Reviewing Sunday's game against Baltimore, the Texans appear to have played their first complete game of the season, as all aspects of the ball were surprisingly radiant. Taking a moment to evaluate the first few games the Texans have completed, Sean and Dan pose what could be the underlying issue with the Texans heading into the BYE Week with hopes of adjustments to be made coming out. Is it a mental block or the inability to execute effectively?    

With Week 5 in the NFL set to conclude today following Monday Night Football tonight, the Texans roll into Baltimore with a bit of a chip on their shoulder against their AFC competitors. Favored to win and with the Ravens missing their starting quarterback, Lamar Jackson, the Texans do not disappoint, going on to shut out Baltimore with a final score of 44-10. Writing some history, Houston claims the organization's first victory at M&T Bank Stadium, having previously been 0-8 on the road until yesterday. Regarding C.J. Stroud's dominating performance and noting the absence of Lamar, Sean and Dan take a moment to evaluate yesterday's much-needed victory and what mentality the Texans should have going in and coming out of their BYE Week following this week's huge victory.

Standing at 1-3 now following their victory over the Titans last Sunday, the Texans now roll up to Baltimore, set to take on the Ravens in a Sunday noon kickoff. With both teams enduring some offensive struggles early in the start of the season, the Texans head on to Baltimore as the favorite ahead of Sunday's kickoff. Weighing the possibility of Ravens' starting quarterback Lamar Jackson possibly inactive for Sunday's game, Aaron shares a few gems the Texans must execute effectively in all aspects of the ball against their division rival if they intend to push on to 2-3 at a chance for better hopes of making the postseason.

With Week 4 of the NFL now in the books, the Houston Texans stand at 1-3 following their victory Sunday over Cam Ward and the Tennessee Titans. Now heading into Week 5, the Texans face a critical opportunity to secure a win against the Baltimore Ravens, who may be without their star quarterback under center, Lamar Jackson. Surprisingly, standing at 1-3 to start the season, both teams desperately need Sunday's win over the other to boost their chances of making the playoffs before hopes are far-flung. Possibly not to suit up on Sunday in regards to a hamstring injury, Sean and Dan discuss how crucial it is for the Texans to try to pull out of Sunday with a victory over the Ravens, with the chance to combat their disappointing start to the season.
