How a tipping point for change could unfold for the Houston Texans
DESPERATE TIMES...

Coming off a heartbreaking loss to the Lions, fans are understandably disappointed with the performance of the offense, especially in the second half.
CJ Stroud certainly is responsible for some of the struggles, but the fanbase is putting most of the blame on OC Bobby Slowik.
Which begs the question, at what point would the Texans consider making a change to jumpstart the offense?
Don't miss the video above as ESPN Houston's Paul Gallant and Joe George share their thoughts on the state of the offense, and lay out why change is unlikely to happen while the Texans still have a winning record.
The Houston Astros announced on Monday that additional imaging has revealed that Jeremy Peña is dealing with a small fracture in one of his ribs.
Peña left Friday's game after being hit by a pitch in the ribs. The club originally believed they had avoided any fractures or breaks, but new information has informed them otherwise.

Peña is heading to the 10-day injured list retroactive to June 28. This news comes at an unfortunate time, with Jeremy posting the best regular season numbers of his career. He's currently slashing .322, .378, .489 with an .867 OPS.
Peña will miss the Rockies and Dodgers series at a minimum.
Story on Peña headed to the IL with quotes from Dana Brown.
“This isn’t one of those things where you have to be sidelined the whole time. Once the inflammation goes down, he might feel good enough to swing a bat.” https://t.co/ih2G09Jpcf

Let's hope the team doesn't rush him back too soon and create an even bigger problem. These quotes above from Dana Brown have me concerned. Playing through injuries can create bad habits, and Jeremy has clearly found his swing this season.
