In The Loop opens the show with the Astros and asks whether a three-game series is really as good for Houston as you’d normally think. Then the conversation shifts to the Texans after DeMeco Ryans said the offense needs to execute better and could use some tweaks, but what do the numbers actually say about what’s wrong? The hour wraps with the Question of the Day: Why is this happening to the Texans? What did we do to deserve this? Is this payback for something? ITL then goes Around The NFL with reaction to Monday Night Football and more before turning to the Texans offensive line. Keylan Rutledge isn’t this team’s best offensive lineman, so how concerning is it that both the Texans and those watching the team thought he might be? That’s followed by What’s Popping in sports and entertainment. Later, the guys look at the bigger picture and ask whether the Texans are barreling toward a paradigm-shifting dilemma that could force the organization into some major decisions, and whether there’s any way to avoid it. Then it’s Lunch-Time Confessions and College Football on a Tuesday. The show wraps with the Astros and another big question heading into the AL Wild Card Series: if this series comes down to managerial decisions, how do you feel about Houston’s chances? Then Figgy’s Mixtape takes over with someone crashing into a store because they needed to use the bathroom, first graders grilling their teacher after she announces she’s getting married, and more.
