Heard Watson was the Michael Jordan of football, never saw MJ dribble the clock out while losing.

He's the PJ Tucker of football

Should have moved up and drafted Mahomes.  Dude is fucking killing it in the NFL.  Oh and fire O'Brien already please.

It doesn’t matter who the QB is if the OL is as bad as ours.

Been that way since the beginning, and our issue specifically since 2002

Agreed.  Need to draft and sign an O-line, that would make a yuge difference.  But that last series by Watson just makes me pissed at him.  Really I am just sick of O'Brien.

You switch Watson for Mahommes and Watson is lighting it up while Mahommes is struggling in this offense with the shitty OL and play calls. Whatever offense the Texans were running last year when Watson was tearing it up, they need to go back to it, because this current offense is a repeat of the Cincinnati Thursday night game.

[Lurch 5,930]

May skip the Texans @ JAX this year. They may somehow top last years atrocity

[clapclapclap 9,000]

They're a stupid team because they have a stupid coach hired by a stupid GM kept way to long by a clueless owner.

Mahommes also has a great coach.  O'Brien is truly a fraud.  His pathetic decisions have cost them 2 games.   The season is over already.  They are the worst team in the division.  They lost to a backup qb today

[HtownHorn 14,679]

I bet they fire Bob only to hire Josh McDaniel.

[Slacks 6,819]

Did he just say that throwing a 50/50 ball into double coverage makes it a 25/75 ball?

He was kinda right. It's not as if there are 3 equal chances on catching that ball. Think about it, don't math it.

[Slacks 6,819]

Clowney earned a 15 hard penalty... while in street clothes

Clowney is also going to get fired on his day off.

[Slacks 6,819]

Hahahaaaa. Mahomes is coached by Andy Reid. Watson would be an MVP candidate if coached by Andy Reid.

[PencilPusher 454]

My only entre about the Texans is simply this. As long as Bob McNair is actively involved in making ownership decisions, the Texans will continue to underachieve as an organization. I am not sure what Cal will ultimately bring to the table, but I wouldn't expect anything radically different which means the Texans might be screwed until the franchise is sold to different owners.

What is astonishing is the fact that the Texans run one of the least innovative sports organizations, not only in the NFL, but in the entire sports landscape, yet share a city with 2 of the most innovative sports organizations in the entire country. The Astros might be the most innovative in MLB and the Rockets certainly are one of the most innovative organizations in the NBA. The Texans could easily go to school on what a team like the Astros did in terms of talent identification. Sure, they obviously had high draft picks that net Carlos Correa, George Springer, and Alex Bregman, but they also were able to identify gems like Charlie Morton to fill out the fringes of their roster (and the story at how they evaluated Morton was interesting)....something the Texans are at best average at. My guess is that there is an arrogance that pervades the Texans organization because Houston is at heart a "football town" and people keep showing up to the games. Plus, they have starts like JJ and Deshaun and we just need to tinker here or there to be successful. Meanwhile, they can't identify offensive line talent to save their lives. While it isn't Cleveland and Jimmy Haslam bad over on Kirby Drive, it is more just "average" with a few moments of glory. 

These franchises have never won a Super Bowl: Bills, Browns, Bengals, Jags, Titans, Texans, Chargers, Falcons, Panthers, Lions, Vikings, Cardinals. With few exceptions (Vikings being the most prolific), those franchises have largely been the dregs of the NFL in the Super Bowl era.  The bolded teams have never even been to a Super Bowl. Yep, when you keep company with Cleveland, Detroit, and Jacksonville, you are part of the dregs of the NFL.. 

[TexArcher 37,774]

Man.  If Houston can't beat the Giants at home, I'm not sure who they're gonna beat.

Come on, guys.

[DaysOff 7,948]

This is bad football and you should all feel bad for watching.

[TexArcher 37,774]

JJ into the backfield to blow up a run then again for a strip sack.  

I don't know if I can handle Texas and JJ getting back to what they're capable of at the same time.  But I'd like to try.

Texans should trade him for a cadre of picks. The OL and secondary is so fucking bad, it's going to take 3-4 years to fix them.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

What another abortion of a Sunday. Fuck this team, their coach, and the owner. Blow it up.

[UTEX_ME 4,762]

ballgame

[perfectchaos007 6,638]

Deshaun Watson looks like a shadow of his former self from last year. Did that injury ruin his confidence/ability?

[Tommy Nobis 905]

More blame lies on the god damn owner. He lets this shit fly. Dumb ass fans keep showing up and lining his pockets so he doesn’t give a flying fuck about a winning product on the field.

[Lurch 5,930]

Great snag

Yup this, another wasted talent by the Texans like AJ.  Let Watt go to somewhere like New England, Green Bay or Philly where he can win something.

[deadshank 24,652]

This team is really bad.  Not zany, goofy, comically bad but gutless, rudderless, indifferent bad.  

[Slacks 6,819]

This team wont win more than 3 games....

The defense can't cover a TE ever.
The DBs can't cover.

The OL can't pass block at all.
Hopkins can't get open without pushing off.

[deadshank 24,652]

70 is an idiot.  

[TexArcher 37,774]

4 false starts in one half.

Unfuckingbelievable.

[deadshank 24,652]

Inept is thy name. 

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Of course not. We can’t even hang with a team whose only won 3 games in over a year.

and there is no one to replace him so he will continue to play.

[pearlandhorn 3,269]

As mainly a cowboys fan living in Houston, even I feel bad for Texan fans. I will say that my boss has season tickets and is probably the most entertaining on Mondays after a loss.

Tell your boss he is part of the problem by continuing to support this shit product.

Oh I do. Every year he continues the renewal.

The injury and being coached up B'oB will kill your football talent.

[Tommy Nobis 905]

Terrible throw by Watson. Hopkins had his man beat to the inside. But Watson throws it to the sideline.

Is Dabo interested in the NFL?

[TexArcher 37,774]

Okay, only 4 more field goals and we got this.

[936horn 910]

At least the horns are trending positive again

[TexArcher 37,774]

Have a worse fucking game, Lamar Miller.

[perfectchaos007 6,638]

Just when it looked like the Texans were going to get a carry for more that 2 yards....fumble 

[MillerEP 30,455]

Just hot steaming garbage

[deadshank 24,652]

They are really awful.  

[deadshank 24,652]

Yay Yay still open for business. 

Clowney is a complete bust at this point.  He should be charged with loitering. 

[TexArcher 37,774]

Good drive going, then you call that play.  Christ.

[Lurch 5,930]

Clowney is a complete bust at this point.

Pro bowler last 2 years. Let’s be reasonable.

[TexArcher 37,774]

OMFG FUCKING SHIT CHRIST FUCK.
