Texans
W 23-21 vs Raiders · Dec 21, 2025
Misery Index · Miserable
Texans fans are 7-0 in the streak and somehow still begging for Caley's firing after watching the Raiders out-scheme.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
Seven in a row, and the building still feels like a wake. The offense produced nothing memorable enough to crack the win-probability chart until C.Stroud's 17-yard flip to J.Higgins late, while the actual margin traces back to D.Stingley jumping a G.Smith throw in the first quarter and walking it in himself. When the defense scores your signature touchdown and A.Jeanty still gashes you for 60 and 51, the standings lie about what anyone just watched.
What fans said
“Burn the tape. Get healthy. On to the chargers.”
