How the Texans Rebuilt — And Why the Raiders Should Copy Their Blueprint
The Raiders are at a crossroads — and instead of guessing, it’s time to study teams that actually rebuilt the right way.
On today’s episode of the Silver & Black Sports Network Podcast, Jesse Merrick is joined by former Texans defensive lineman Seth Payne, now of Sports Radio 610 in Houston, to break down how the Texans went from bottom feeders to contenders — and why their blueprint matters for Las Vegas.
We dive into:How Houston built around C.J. StroudWhy DeMeco Ryans’ defensive-minded approach workedWhat the Texans did differently during their rebuildWhy defensive head coaches can succeed in today’s NFLOne offensive-minded coaching candidate Raiders fans should watchHow this rebuild compares to where the Raiders are right nowA brief preview of Raiders vs. Texans this weekend
This isn’t about hype — it’s about process, patience, and building the right foundation.
If you’re serious about what the Raiders need to do next, this episode is required watching.
