Podcasts about Lapham

“Lewis was always engaging with some important piece of literature from the past,” says historian and classicist Emily Allen-Hornblower in this episode of The World in Time, edited from audio recorded at the memorial service held for Lewis H. Lapham in September 2024. “You can be chatting about the insanity of the current political landscape and quickly things would shift to how history repeats itself, how humanity simply does not learn. And Thucydides or Cicero would rear their heads. To quote Cicero, ‘To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child. For what is the worth of human life, unless it is woven into the life of our ancestors by the records of history?' Lewis understood that without the past, we lose the ability to think productively or even understand the present. He made himself a warrior for the humanities, putting up a splendid fight on behalf of the arts and letters. 'Til the end.” In this second of two episodes this week, we are joined once again by Lewis, first in the tributes and remembrances of his friends and colleagues and then in his own voice. Public Theater artistic director Oskar Eustis introduces the proceedings. Former Harper's Magazine literary editor Ben Metcalf recalls Lapham the mentor. Emily Allen-Hornblower reads from Homer and Baudelaire. Actor Alec Baldwin reads Mark Twain's essay “At the Funeral.” Actor Christopher Lloyd performs Prospero's epilogue from Shakespeare's The Tempest. Producer and director Sandy Gotham Meehan shares a letter by Flaubert. In audio from our archives, Lewis Lapham reads from “'Round Midnight,” his preamble to Music, the Fall 2017 issue of Lapham's Quarterly.

“I'm an essayist, not a podcaster,” says Lapham's Quarterly acting editor Donovan Hohn, “but then the same could be said of Lewis, who took the form and the medium of the podcast and did with it what he'd done all of his adulthood: have conversations with people whose voices he wished to hear. Seasoned listeners to The World in Time may rest assured that similar conversations will resume shortly. This episode, my first behind the microphone, won't be a conversation, but it will be a duet. I'll be sharing the microphone some with Lewis Lapham.” This week on the podcast Donovan Hohn hosts two episodes devoted to the life, career, and memory of our founding editor, Lewis H. Lapham. In this first episode, Hohn announces the Quarterly's plans for Summer 2025, shares excerpts from a keynote address Lapham delivered at Bard College's Hannah Arendt Center for Politics and Humanities in 2011, pays tribute to Lapham the essayist, and gives an account of the months preceding and following Lewis' death in July 2024.

Dive back into the fascinating world of NFL scouting in Part 2 of Dave Lapham's insightful conversation with Cincinnati Bengals Scouting Director Mike Potts.  Following up on their initial discussion, Lapham and Potts delve deeper into the intricate process of evaluating talent for the NFL Draft, offering Bengals fans and draft enthusiasts a rare glimpse behind the curtain. This segment tackles the crucial balance between on-field performance ("the tape") and athletic testing metrics from events like the NFL Combine. Potts emphasizes that while game film remains the ultimate arbiter ("the biggest deal is put on the tape and what do you see, right?"), athletic testing provides valuable context and potential indicators. They discuss the challenge of projecting players whose testing numbers might not align perfectly with their college production, exploring how scheme, coaching, or usage might influence what's seen on film. Can a player with "freakish" athletic traits but modest college stats be unlocked in the Bengals' system? Potts explains how the scouting department works to answer these complex questions. A significant portion of the discussion revolves around gathering comprehensive player intelligence. Potts details how the Bengals leverage every available resource – from internal coaching staff insights (mentioning new additions like Al Golden and Jerry Montgomery, who bring fresh perspectives from college and other pro teams) to extensive networks of college contacts. He explains the value of coaches who have either game-planned against a prospect or coached them directly, providing nuanced understanding beyond the raw film. The conversation highlights the importance of the player interview process. It's not just about football knowledge; it's about understanding the person, their character, work ethic, and how they might fit into the Bengals' locker room culture. Potts shares how they assess football IQ – can the player articulate concepts, understand schemes, and "talk football" intelligently when breaking down film? Interestingly, he notes that sometimes the most impressive prospects aren't the most polished interviewees, and vice-versa, requiring scouts to look deeper. Lapham probes Potts to see whether players ever ask insightful questions back, revealing another layer of the evaluation. Potts, a former quarterback himself (William & Mary, brief pro stints), shares his perspective on how having played the game informs his scouting approach. He discusses how that experience helps him understand locker room dynamics, recognize subtle on-field traits, evaluate positional nuances, and relate to the pressures players face. This lived experience adds a crucial dimension to interpreting player profiles. They touch upon the current state of the Bengals' roster-building philosophy, acknowledging the "good problem" of having drafted exceptionally well with stars like Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, and Tee Higgins. The discussion implicitly covers the challenges of retaining top talent under the salary cap, referencing the franchise tag on Higgins and Chase's potential market-setting value. The ongoing situation with Trey Hendrickson is also alluded to, illustrating the constant evaluation involved in managing the roster and cap, weighing player value against compensation and team needs. Potts reinforces the goal isn't to get rid of good players, but to continuously find ways to improve the team through all avenues – draft, free agency, and trades – while maintaining financial flexibility and avoiding burdensome "dead money." Specific position groups from the recent Combine are discussed, acknowledging the remarkable athleticism on display, particularly along the defensive and offensive lines and in the secondary. Potts notes the trend of players getting bigger, stronger, and faster each year, presenting exciting but challenging evaluations. They discuss the depth present in this year's draft across various positions, emphasizing that while some spots might be more "top-heavy," there's talent to be found throughout the draft. Ultimately, Potts paints a picture of a meticulous, multi-layered evaluation process that goes far beyond just watching highlights. It involves synthesizing film, athletic data, medical information, character assessments, scheme fit projections, and input from coaches and contacts to build a comprehensive draft board. He stresses the collaborative nature of the process and the goal of finding players who not only possess talent but also align with the Bengals' culture and vision for sustained success. This Part 2 discussion is essential viewing for anyone wanting to understand the modern NFL scouting landscape and the Cincinnati Bengals' specific approach to building a championship-caliber roster.

In this episode of "In the Trenches with Dave Lapham," former NFL offensive lineman and Bengals analyst Dave Lapham delivers an in-depth breakdown of the Cincinnati Bengals' offseason plans, focusing on free agency, roster construction, and the team's approach to managing the salary cap. Lapham dives into the Bengals' strategy, emphasizing their focus on versatility, responsible spending, and avoiding the pitfalls of dead money. Lapham begins by highlighting the Bengals' key re-signings, including Mike Gesicki, BJ Hill, and Cody Ford. He emphasizes these players' versatility, noting that they can play multiple positions and contribute in various ways on the field. Lapham points out that re-signing these players allows the Bengals to maintain continuity and familiarity within their system. The discussion then shifts to the Bengals' approach to free agency, with Lapham analyzing the team's signings and releases. He notes that the Bengals have been active in retaining their own players and adding depth to their roster. He also discusses the challenges of managing the salary cap, particularly when it comes to signing high-profile players like Tee Higgins, Ja'Marr Chase, and Trey Hendrickson, in addition to Joe Burrow's existing contract. Lapham delves into the intricacies of contract structures, explaining how the Bengals prioritize upfront payment to players and structuring contracts to avoid dead money. He contrasts this approach with that of other teams, such as the Cleveland Browns, which have struggled with salary cap issues due to large contracts with significant dead money implications. The episode also explores the Bengals' needs on both sides of the ball. Lapham discusses the importance of strengthening the defensive line and finding a replacement for Alex Cappa at the guard position. He mentions several potential free agent targets and discusses the team's options for filling these needs. Lapham emphasizes that the Bengals are committed to building a competitive team while being fiscally responsible. He highlights the importance of maintaining a healthy salary cap and avoiding the boom-and-bust cycles that can plague teams that overspend or mismanage their finances. The discussion concludes with Lapham discussing the importance of team chemistry and the desire of players like Mike Gesicki to play alongside Joe Burrow and the Bengals' talented receiving corps. He notes that the opportunity to compete for a Super Bowl and be part of a winning culture can be a significant factor in players' decisions, even if it means taking a slightly smaller contract. This episode provides valuable insights into the Bengals' off-season strategy and approach to building a sustainable, competitive team. Dave Lapham's expertise and analysis offer fans a deeper understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing the Bengals as they navigate the complexities of NFL free agency and roster construction.

Today I have the immense privilege of speaking with Riley Lapham. Riley started dancing early in her home town of Wollongong, and by age 14, she had joined the Australian Ballet School. But from here, Riley's journey takes twists and turns. In her graduation year, Riley missed her final performance due to injury. But in a Center Stage-like moment, the then artistic director David McAllister offered her a contract with the company.In this brave and vulnerable conversation, Riley and I talk about what it's like to join a company while injured, and what it was like to deal with the worldwide shutdown that occurred in 2020 as a junior member of the company. Riley also speaks about a topic she's not yet discussed publicly—her journey with long Covid—what it was like to contract Covid just as she was nominated for Telstra Ballet Dancer of the Year, and then the unexpected journey of not getting better. We talk about the grief and the devastation that followed the acceptance of a slow recovery, her decision to move to France, and the journey back to the stage with the Australian Ballet.Riley continues to train and work with the Australian Ballet's rehabilitation team, while gaining her strength to make a return to the stage.

It was a long plane ride back to Cincinnati following the Bengals 34-27 Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Dave Lapham reacts to the Bengals' latest loss despite Joe Burrow having another big game. Burrow threw for 356 yards and three touchdowns, and receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins combined for 16 catches for 223 yards and three touchdowns, wasting another chance to work towards making the playoffs. Burrow, who is leading the NFL with 3,028 passing yards and 27 touchdowns with only four interceptions, is having a magical type of season quarterbacks usually have on teams pushing for championships, not on the outside looking in at the playoffs.  Despite being 4-7 heading into their bye, the Bengals are still in the hunt for a playoff berth if they can return and put together a winning streak in their final six games that will start against AFC North rival, the Pittsburgh Steelers, who are finding ways to win games and stand with an 8-2 mark so far.

There was significant excitement early in the Cincinnati Bengals' 17-7 win over the New York Giants as Joe Burrow recorded the longest touchdown run ever by a Bengals quarterback when he went 47-yards on third-and-18 quarterback keeper and closed out the game when Chase Brown sealed the second win of the season with a 30-yard touchdown run with just under two minutes left. In between, the Bengals' defense got a great game from former Giants draft pick B.J. Hill, as he made several big plays and maybe the biggest play of the night by cornerback DJ Turner when he knocked down a fourth-down pass from Daniel Jones that led up to Brown's touchdown run. While it may not have been the cleanest or most exciting game, it was a win, giving Bengals fans a Victory Monday for only the second time this season. Dave Lapham returned to the First Star Logistics Studios to react to what happened on Sunday Night Football in primetime.

If you missed the livestream from the First Star Logistics Studios with Dave Lapham and Joe Goodberry, here is your chance to catch up as Lapham was joined by the Bengals On The Brain host. The two discuss the Bengals' loss to the Washington Commanders and their 0-3 start to the 2024 season, along with the path from now on with the Carolina Panthers and former Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton waiting next Sunday.  

Former Cincinnati Bengals player and longtime radio analyst Dave Lapham gives one final look at the Bengals' 0-3 start to the 2024 season and Monday night's loss to the Washington Commanders from the First Star Logistics Studios. Lapham stresses the Bengals need to put all talk of winning the division, making the playoffs and the Super Bowl, and just win a damn football game first.

Cincinnati Bengals left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. returns to Dave Lapham In The Trenches, presented by First Star Logistics, to discuss his prep work for Week Three of the NFL season as the Bengals get ready to host the Washington Commanders in front of a national audience on Monday Night Football. Still looking for their first win after their one-point loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, Brown and Lapham discuss the Bengals' 0-2 start, another classic battle between the Bengals and Chiefs, and the growth of the Bengals' offensive attack. Brown also praises teammates and tight ends Mike Gesicki, Drew Sample, and rookie Erick All Jr.. Please participate in the First Star Logistics giant giveaway each week the Bengals play this season.  Follow the following on X for more details.  @FirstStarLog @DLInTheTrenches @JoeGoodberry  @JakeLiscow Also, give yourself a second chance to win by watching the Jake & Joe Postgame Show after each Bengals game this season.

It was another emotional day for Dave Lapham while he called the game between the Cincinnati Bengals and Kansas City Chiefs on the First Star Logistics Bengals Radio Network on Sunday afternoon. On Monday, Lapham returned to the First Star Logistics Studios to express his reaction to the Bengals' 26-25 loss to Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs.  Fans have gotten used to the fact that when these two teams meet, the games will be close, and this one was no different. The Chiefs got a late flag on a 4th-and-16 pass interference call on rookie Daijahn Anthony, which allowed Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker the chance to kick a game-winning 51-yard field goal. After time to digest the outcome, Lap is ready to react to the heartbreaking loss that moved the Bengals to 0-2 on the season, with the Washington Commanders coming to Paycor Stadium for Monday Night Football.

After spending multiple days in Chicago for a joint practice and the second preseason game of the year against the Chicago Bears, the Cincinnati Bengals left with various injuries, sloppy play, and sloppy weather. After returning to Cincinnati, Dave Lapham joined Dave Berk to discuss the events of the past few days with a focus on the Bengals' 27-3 loss against the Bears, where they played almost all backups against the Bears front-line players. Who stepped forward with important performances as the days count down until the Bengals must reduce their roster to the NFL mandatory 53? All that and more in the latest Dave Lapham In The Trenches, presented by First Star Logistics.

Dave Lapham gave Cincinnati Bengals rookie offensive tackle Amarius Mims much praise for his performance in the Bengals' first preseason game against Tampa Bay on Saturday night. However, on Monday, Zac Taylor announced Mims had suffered a strained pectoral muscle and would be out multiple weeks. Lapham checked in before the Bengals took the practice field for his thoughts on an injury he knows much about, having suffered one during his own playing career. Get the latest Breaking News on the injury to Amarius Mims on Dave Lapham In The Trenches, presented by First Star Logistics.

Jump in the trenches as Dave Lapham looks at the good, the bad, and who stood out from the Cincinnati Bengals 14-17 preseason loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Saturday night at Paycor Stadium. From kickoff, Bengals fans had much to be excited about as quarterback Joe Burrow returned from the injury that robbed him from the second half of last season. Burrow didn't disappoint, leading the Bengals on a 12-play opening drive that ended with a Tee Higgins touchdown as rookie right tackle Amarius Mims showed why the Bengals coaching staff was ecstatic when they drafted him in the first round of the 2024 NFL Draft out of Georgia. Rookie wide receiver Jermaine Burton also showed why many are excited to see him paired with Burrow, as the Alabama product led the Bengals in receiving with three catches for 82 yards and a touchdown from Logan Woodside. But the night wasn't filled with all good things with the Bengals as they struggled to stop the run on defense and made costly mistakes along the way. However, one player on defense really showed up and earned praise from Lapham as the First Star Logistics Player of the Game. First Star Logistics presents Dave Lapham In The Trenches.

Join former Cincinnati Bengals player Tim Krumrie and Dave Lapham as they discuss Tim's induction into the Bengals Ring of Honor and his time in the College Football Hall of Fame. This is a must-watch for Bengals fans and football enthusiasts alike! One of the newest inductees of the Cincinnati Bengals Ring of Honor, Tim Krumrie, enjoyed some great practice battles against Dave Lapham during Krumrie's rookie season and Lapham's final season as a Bengals offensive lineman. The two caught up at First Star Logistics Studios recently to discuss the honor of being voted into the Bengals Ring of Honor, his high school, college, and NFL careers, his battles in the trenches against Lapham and a few other top NFL centers during his career, and how he came back from one of the worst football injuries seen in the history of the game during Super Bowl XXIII against the San Francisco 49ers.

Have you had that dream—the one where you just leave academia? You quit your job, sell all your stuff, and board a plane for somewhere far, far away. But what happens once you land? Dr. Anne Boyd Rioux shares how she left her job in Louisiana and landed in Paris. She explains the steps of establishing a life abroad: working online; exploring new landscapes; frequently repacking suitcases; finding a new feeling of home; and navigating complex visa and residency requirements. As she candidly explores the benefits and downsides of being so mobile, she invites us all to wonder what comes next—when one path stops, and a new one begins. Our guest is: Dr. Anne Boyd Rioux, who is the recipient of four NEH awards, holds a Ph.D. in American Studies, and was an English professor for twenty-three years. She recently sold her house in New Orleans and bought a one-way ticket to Paris. She chronicles her journeys in her newsletter “Letters from Anne,” and is currently writing a memoir.

We always enjoy having Solomon Wilcots get back In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics. In this episode, Wilcots and Lapham discuss the 2024 Cincinnati Bengals schedule and whether the NFL was kind or cruel to Joe Burrow and company as they look to rebound from missing the NFL playoffs during the 2023 season despite having a winning record. While the Bengals won't have a game out of the country, Wilcots and Lap both feel the window is opening, and the NFL could soon be sending the Bengals for a match-up out of the country. Also discussed is how Solomon feels about the Bengals 2024 draft and the player he feels will be the biggest steal in the draft taken by Zac Taylor and the Bengals.

Danielle Amir Jackson is a Memphis-born writer and critic, and the editor-in-chief of the Oxford American. Her work has appeared in the New York Times, Vulture, Bookforum, Lapham's Quarterly, the Criterion Collection, and elsewhere. Honey's Grill: Sex, Freedom, and Women of the Blues, her first book, is forthcoming from Farrar, Straus, and Giroux. Originally based in Oxford, Mississippi, hence its name, Oxford American is both a literary and general interest magazine intent on honoring the cultural wealth of the South. Four writings are discussed, beginning with “What If It All Burned Down?” by Katrina Andy, which as its title suggests, is loaded with questions about the largest slave revolt in U.S. history. It happens at the Andry Plantation north of New Orleans, in the aftermath of the successful Haitian Revolution. Two other writings involve music: there's “How to Take It Slow” by Lauren Du Graf and “Coming Up Fancy” by Jewly Hight. The first portrays Shirley Horn, emphasizing her unique singing and piano style as well as her being such a homebody that she took a pressure cooker along with her on musical road tours. The second takes the song “Fancy” as sung by Reba McEntire and others and explores what home means when it isn't a place of comfort. The episode's fourth entry, “The Mustang” by Gwen Thompkins, is an evocative piece about a family journey to see grandparents at the same time that the narrator's parents' marriage is coming to an end.

Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo returns to Dave Lapham In The Trenches, presented by First Star Logistics, to discuss the loss of D.J. Reader and Chidobe Awuzie. While Anarumo is sad to see the two leave the Bengals for new teams, he's extremely excited about the return of Vonn Bell, the resigning of Akeem Davis-Gaither, and the free agent signings of safety Geno Stone and defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins. Lapham caught up with Coach Anarumo while he was on the West Coast to get his thoughts on each player and Dax Hill's future.

“There's this really old, really crap story that how we got here is about what the guys did. And women were just like some side character behind a hill, just like pounding some tubers, saying, ‘Oh, sorry guys. I see you're busy. I'm just gonna build the future of our species in my actual body'.” That's how the brilliant and hilarious Cat Bohannon introduces the idea behind her New York Times bestselling book, Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution. Ten years in the making, and making a huge splash internationally, the book is a fascinating, myth-busting tour of biological evolution that re-examines everything we think we know about the human body by placing women at the center of it all. In honor of International Women's Day on March 8th, we're thrilled to talk with Cat about her boundary-breaking book, which puts the female body in the foreground of biological research. “ It's not that there's a sexist cabal saying, ha ha! We're gonna understudy females”, she tells us, “It's that there's this pre-existing idea that ovaries don't matter”. Cat shares how there's a long history of female bodies being excluded from medical, evolutionary and biological research, and why that matters for everyone.The interview also dives into Cat's sci-fi movie inspiration for the book, how female figures in evolution were key to the humans of today, why the “male norm” in biological research developed in the first place, and how change in the scientific community is happening…slowly: “paradigm shifts are hard…that's the hardest thing to break out of. A paradigm shift is the biggest thing there is”. Don't miss this eye-opening discussion that looks at the human body from a whole different vantage point. About the ShowThe Breakout is the hit podcast hosted by human resources and change experts Dr. Keri Ohlrich and Kelly Guenther.

We'll ask what he is, what he is not, what evidence has been collected, the interesting take on our fuzzy friend that Russia has, and more. *** (Originally aired January 27, 2021)SOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…“How The Bigfoot Legend Began” by Becky Little for History.com: https://tinyurl.com/y3pmtb3j“Bigfoot: Man, Monster, or Myth” by Benjamin Radford for LiveScience.com: https://tinyurl.com/y3745nht“Yetis Nests Found in Russia” by Benjamin Radford for LiveScience.com: https://tinyurl.com/y5w8yd54“Russians Claim Indisputable Proof of Yeti” by Benjamin Radford for LiveScience: https://tinyurl.com/y3yjuoz5“Infamous Yeti Finger Flunks DNA Test” by Benjamin Radford for LiveScience: https://tinyurl.com/y3l68wka“Bigfoot Vandalizes a Winnebago” by Benjamin Radford for LiveScience: https://tinyurl.com/y6d3ujef“Bigfoot Hoaxer Killed In Accident” by Benjamin Radford for LiveScience: https://tinyurl.com/y32jevfg“If You Spot Bigfoot, Should You Shoot Him?” by Benjamin Radford for LiveScience: https://tinyurl.com/y4nltw8f“Bigfoot Was Watching You” by Karen Hopper Usher for Cadillac News: https://tinyurl.com/y2s23pby“That Was No Bear” by John Zada for Lapham's Quarterly: https://tinyurl.com/y3xdpbzjVisit our Sponsors & Friends: https://weirddarkness.com/sponsorsJoin the Weird Darkness Syndicate: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateAdvertise in the Weird Darkness podcast or syndicated radio show: https://weirddarkness.com/advertise= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =Weird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library.

Following the Cincinnati Bengals 34-14 win over the Indianapolis Colts, Dave Lapham joined Dave Berk, In The Trenches, presented by First Star Logistics, to discuss the impressive win that has the Bengals back in the playoff hunt after the season-ending injury to Joe Burrow. Following up from Monday's overtime win against the Jacksonville Jaguars, quarterback Jake Browning again showed why the Bengals coaching staff felt confident in his abilities to run the offense and put the Bengals in a position to win. Hitting on over 75% of his passes, Browning would throw for 275 yards and two touchdowns while rushing for a score. He also saw rookie Chase Brown team with Joe Mixon to provide a one-two punch running and catching the ball. Add in another top performance by Lou Anarumo's defense that sacked Gardner Minshew three times, and the Bengals look strong as they enter the season's final four weeks. Now 7-6 on the season, Lapham and Berk talk about the game and Saturday's upcoming opponent, the Minnesota Vikings, who won a 3-0 game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday as they continue to play without their starting quarterback, Kirk Cousins.

Dave Lapham joined Dave Berk following another big win by the Cincinnati Bengals, who are now 5-3 on the season following their 24-18 victory over the Buffalo Bills in front of 66,965 highly energized fans dressed in orange and black. Lapham talks about the rise of the Bengals' tight ends after many fans screamed for the Bengals' front office to make a move before the trade deadline. Tanner Hudson, who was moved to the active roster instead of making a trade, pulled in four Joe Burrow passes for 45 yards. At the same time, Drew Sample showed he can do more than a blocker at the line of scrimmage with three receptions for 30 yards, including a touchdown, and first-year tight end Irv Smith Jr. enjoyed his best game as a member of the Bengals with three receptions for 26 yards and a score. While Joe Mixon may not have had the kind of day many hoped for running the ball, he did have a touchdown on 14 carries for 37 yards while also adding five receptions for 31 yards/ The offensive line flexed their muscles with double teams between center Ted Karras and guards Alex Cappa and Cordell Volson, while left tackle Orlando Brown Jr. showed off his athletic ability by pulling and opening holes.  But while it was easy to talk about Burrow and the offense, the play of Lou Anarumo's defense came up big again, with Cam Taylor-Britt adding another interception and linebacker Germaine Pratt teamed with safety Nick Scott to punch the ball out of the hands of Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid to end a drive early in the fourth quarter. Lap also discusses where he feels the Bengals are at after their tough start but huge recovery with the Houston Texans coming up Sunday afternoon in Paycor Stadium before a short turnaround to play AFC North rival the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night, then followed the following weekend with another rival the Pittsburgh Steelers.
