The Houston Texans are seemingly putting their trust in Jake Andrews to anchor the offensive line, but does his confidence match reality? In this episode, we dig into Andrews' rise into the starting center role and whether the optimism surrounding Houston's front five is actually justified.

With ESPN’s latest offensive line rankings casting a spotlight on some potential cracks in the foundation, we ask the uncomfortable question: is this line really built to protect C.J. Stroud?

We explore what Andrews brings to the table, how the Texans stack up in national evaluations, and why blind belief in a unit this important could backfire.

Plus, we break down why shaky protection might be an even bigger issue than a shaky quarterback — and what it all means for Houston’s big-picture hopes in 2025.
