2023 Houston Texans thread

[Macklemore 2881]

Let’s follow up last night’s win with a W in Baltimore, which will be a tall order. Hope the decimated OL can give some protection to Stroud today.

That 4th down play sucked

[wood 11575]

I see the VY Curse on the Texans is still in effect. As it should be.

One of you photoshop gurus needs to do a VY version of that Mack Brown Curse pic.

I liked the decision, the play call was bad. CJ Stroud is already looking scared.

Young sucked in the NFL, there is no curse when the said player was a complete fucking bust.

OK bro. LOL.

[Macklemore 2881]

Defense has come to play. Will Anderson collapses the pocket leading to INT

[Dennis Taylor 19029]

Holding, 78 offense...Tunsil is in mid-season form. False start should be forthcoming 

[yoladu 4165]

Bar trivia. 
 

what QBs first career pass completion was to himself?

CJ Stroud. 

[Macklemore 2881]

Finally getting some 1st downs. Stroud is settling down. Just needs some protection

It seems like a lot of the protection problems have been from poorly designed schemes 

[Macklemore 2881]

Slowik is adjusting his play calls and we are seeing better passing

Killer penalty. Thankfully we got bailed out with a roughing call on 3rd down

Most overrated player in the league 

[Macklemore 2881]

I think we all would have taken being down just a point at halftime.

[Dennis Taylor 19029]

Ignored defensive holding on 1st play of 3rd quarter leads to 11 yard sack

[Zeus 6463]

Greenard and Pierce a couple of Gators I’m rooting for out there!

But they are gonna get smoked, Lamar looks like he’s committed to passing and working on reads

[tx ind 7014]

Pitre out for the day, hopefully it isn't longer.

Huge loss. Leader of the D. Not surprised Baltimore scored with him out.

[Brothahorn 10088]

Interesting play call on 4-1.?

Like going for it on 4th but not the play call on either 4th downs

Yeah he's a badass. Designating it as a chest injury isn't good 

[Dennis Taylor 19029]

I guess this 74 fuckhead thinks he's going to lead the league in holding penalties...

[Macklemore 2881]

Need to get a TD here off the fumble.

Josh Jones who they traded for sucks. I haven’t seen Kendrick Green in yet who was horrible in Pittsburgh 

[Macklemore 2881]

Will Anderson first sack.

[Dennis Taylor 19029]

Adam Archuleta said some college players are overhyped without a clue of the irony

[Dennis Taylor 19029]

The other announcer who isn't very good at the maths just said the Ravens have a 3 score lead at 25-9

[Macklemore 2881]

All in all, I thought Stroud was solid. Our OL was a mess because of injuries and really limited things. Want to see Slowik use Tank more.

[Macklemore 2881]

[Harrison Stafford 3353]

The Astros out scored the Texans today.

Young sucked in the NFL, there is no curse when the said player was a complete fucking bust.

He was 30–17 as a starter at Tennessee. In his rookie season, Young was named the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year and was named to the AFC Pro Bowl team as a reserve. In 2009, Young earned another pro bowl selection.

That's not a complete fucking bust.

We should be going for it on every 4th and short around the middle of the field. This season is about building culture and not results, even though the results do matter considering Arizona owns our pick which is likely going to be Top 5 if not #1.

He was out of the league in 5 years, he was fucking bust. If it makes you feel any better, Leinart was a fucking bust as well.

[Harrison Stafford 3353]

You’ve got to remember this was only the first game of the season.  Things can get much worse.

Ravens are always good on defense. Not too worried about it yet. Colts will be a more telling game.

[Macklemore 2881]

The injury situation with this team is ridiculous. Stroud is now questionable for the game. Was never on the injury report until now. Stroud’s injury is not training camp related; nevertheless, they need to move training camp back to West Virginia. It’s too hot and it is causing too many injuries IMO.

No Tunsil for today’s game. Stroud will start.

 

[Rip76 4986]

Oof.

Gonna be a long day.  That was quick.

[Macklemore 2881]

That sucked. Need to put some more pressure on AR.

[David Dennison 19117]

Yikes.

[Rip76 4986]

Very long

[Macklemore 2881]

Great drive! CJ looked great. First TD pass in the NFL

[HtownHorn 14916]

Stroud about to get killed behind this line and his inability to read a defense.

[tx ind 7014]

Love how Pierce runs 

[Rip76 4986]

Need to get the TE more involved.

Unless he’s blocking all day.

His ability to read a defense and go through his progressions is one of his strengths and already more advanced than Justin Fields who is in his 3rd year. He needs to run more on occasion and have more ball security with this joke of an OL

[Brothahorn 10088]

How do you, not gameplan for Richardson to beat you with his legs?

Is Tunsil actually hurt or another mail it in season?
