It's infuriating if Deshaun Watson is choosing between teams while facing potential jail time for sexual misconduct and assault. This is like watching a car crash in slow motion; so many people could still stop this.

Game News
Texans DT Maliek Collins was called for roughing the passer on this play. Two refs immediately threw flags. We see calls like this way too often. What exactly is an NFL player supposed to do on a play like this? pic.twitter.com/Ie5UpZvE8w
There is J.J. Watt with a tackle for loss against former Cardinal David Johnson.
Brandin Cooks last week: "We're an undisciplined team." That hasn't changed this week. Three penalties kill three #Texans drives. Chop block: Punt Illegal formation: FG Holding: Punt
Second-year DE Jonathan Greenard has 6 sacks in 5 games, including 4 in his last 2.
Markus Golden gets the sack in the NASCAR package with Watt the only down lineman. Rookie Davis Mills had no chance.
Texans HC David Culley says Tyrod Taylor (hamstring) will return to practice this week, QB's Week 8 status TBD nfl.com/news/2021-nfl-… pic.twitter.com/l5m1FSOHtI
David Culley is fired up after Texans' latest loss, a 31-5 defeat to the Arizona Cardinals. Six losses in a row. Texans aren't anywhere close to competitive right now. Frustrating situation
Texans blew it having Andre Roberts keep returning punts before they cut him. Desmond King has returns of 14 and 20 yards already. He averaged 33 yards in preseason. Should have been returning all season.
Sunday marked the worst Bears loss since Marc Trestman was head coach. They shouldn't still be putting up stats like they did against the Bucs, ones that harken back to the lowest points of the post-Lovie Smith era. But here we are. Column from Tampa theathletic.com/2910762/2021/1…
Texans' defensive line in first game since Whitney Mercilus' release: Starters: Jon Greenard, Jacob Martin, Roy Lopez, Maliek Collins. Backups: Jordan Jenkins, Charles Omenihu, active first time since Bills game, per sources, Ross Blacklock, DeMarcus Walker @SportsTalk790
Ross Blacklock: 'We're going to turn this thing around. Eventually, we're going to make everyone proud' @1krozayy
The Houston Texans released their inactives list ahead of their Week 7 encounter with the Arizona Cardinals Sunday at 3:25 p.m. Central Time at State Farm Stadium.
The Texans made running back Scottie Phillips inactive for the sixth time this season. The second-year back from Ole Miss has played just seven special teams snaps this year while the Texans’ run game has gone over 100 yards rushing once since Week 1’s lone victory of the season.
Quarterback Deshaun Watson, tight end Brevin Jordan, cornerback Jimmy Moreland, center Jimmy Morrissey, receiver Davion Davis, and defensive tackle Jaleel Johnson (back) were declared inactive
The Houston Texans released their list of inactive players for their ballgame this afternoon against the Arizona Cardinals at State Farm Stadium. There are no surprises.
Receivers Chris Conley and Nico Collins, both of whom were questionable for the game with injuries, will suit up and play. Center Justin Britt, dealing with a knee injury and entered the weekend questionable for the game, also is active and will be in the starting lineup.
Johnson was ruled out with a back injury. The rest are healthy scratches
2019 No. 1 pick: Kyler Murray 2020 No. 1 pick: Joe Burrow #1 seed in the NFC and AFC through 7 weeks in 2021: Cardinals and Bengals. How fast things can change...
Cardinals' HC Kliff Kingsbury cleared to return for today's game vs. Houston.
🗣 That's a good job handling our business. Coach Kingsbury gave out game balls to Zach Ertz, Markus Golden, J.J. Watt and DeAndre Hopkins. pic.twitter.com/3qNiWpaCTO
Green gathered in all three targets for 66 yards during Sunday's 31-5 win against the Texans.
All of Green's catches went for at least 10 yards, with the bulk of his production coming on a pretty 41-yard connection with Kyler Murray late in the second quarter to help set up the Cardinals' second touchdown of the contest. The three targets were Green's second fewest in a game this season, as he's received exactly six in five of seven outings. And his 35 targets overall now ranks third on the team behind DeAndre Hopkins' 47 and Christian Kirk's 36, and Arizona only began to integrate newcomer Zach Ertz (five targets) into the mix Sunday. With another mouth to feed in this offense, Green's hits may be more sparse as the season goes on.
Yep. Zach Ertz is an Arizona Cardinal. @ZERTZ_86 x #RedSea pic.twitter.com/6hBFyyqt2f

Today's win over Houston marked the first game this season in which Chase Edmonds had more carries than James Conner.
Safety Budda Baker might've gotten hurt after that great tackle. TV showed him on sideline getting left foot/leg checked.
Eno Benjamin getting his first NFL carries on this drive.
Colt McCoy is warming up. He has his helmet on and taking snaps.
Kingsbury says Chandler Jones is trending toward being able to play Green Bay Thursday.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Maxx Williams’ season is over after knee surgery. However, even though he is at home and not with his teammates, he is ready for the team to take on the Houston Texans.
Despite being limited to having to watch the game from home, he got suited up and shared it on Twitter. To watch the game, he has his jersey, his helmet and cleats on, sitting on a recliner with a ball in his hands and his feet up. He has his surgically repaired right knee elevated
Byron Murphy with a terribly ill-advised taunting after a big third-down stop. Good call. Murphy was clear of the play and ran back to say something.
Zaven Collins starting in the 3 ILB package with Hicks and Simmons.
Bad snap from Max Garcia. Not been a sharp start for the offense.
