The Texans host the Buffalo Bills on Thursday Night Football, without starting quarterback C.J. Stroud for their third straight game. ESPN's DJ Bien-Aime joined B.Scott on the podcast to discuss the state of the .500 Texans, sitting at 5-5 going into this pivotal game against a tough opponent on a short week. 

Are the Texans just mid? Are they actually good? How's Nick Caley doing as first-year offensive coordinator? What about some of their new weapons, both young and old? Where do they fall in the AFC wild card race pecking order. 

They discuss all of it here.

C.J. Stroud did not participate in Monday's walkthrough at Texans practice, which makes it seem less likely that he will play Thursday night against the Buffalo Bills. 

Brandon Scott says they could win the game even without Stroud.

The Houston Rockets rallied from down 14 points to beat the Orlando Magic in overtime on Sunday night. They did it behind Kevin Durant's 35 points and a clutch shot by Alperen Sengun to send the game into overtime. 

Also, it may have been boring in Tennessee, but a win is a win. It seemed for a while like the Texans might blow an opportunity to beat the worst team in football, but a last-second field goal put them ahead in the end. 

Brandon Scott is here reacting to it all with you on The B-Block.

If the Texans recover this season, they will have their backup quarterback, shuffled offensive line and slumping edge rusher to thank. Davis Mills answered the call, as did a hodgepodge of linemen; and Danielle Hunter had his biggest game of the season.

It was a beatdown by the Texans in Baltimore. An all-around performance by the offense and defense, setting the Texans up at 2-3 going into the bye week.

Brandon Scott explains why this was a major win for Houston's first-year offensive coordinator Nick Caley, the offensive line and a defense that continues to show up.

 The Houston Texans have no excuses against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday and it's not just because Lamar Jackson's officially been ruled out with a hamstring injury.

The Ravens defense is Swiss cheese and the version of it the Texans will face could be even worse. These are mostly the backups to one of the worst defenses in the league. It's a unique opportunity for the Texans, who Brandon Scott is picking to win 27-24 and improve to 2-3 at the bye week.
