Lol then after all of that they will say he missed a wide open Atkins. All the while missing the fact Atkins was tripped on that play.

How did the oline hold up? Very suprise looking at the stats that watson didn't get sacked esp with tunsil out
Also suprise their rb didn't have a 100yard game

Looks like Gilmore is the only +player on there defense. Was John Simon starting?It was very noticeable on several plays Watson had all day in the pocket. I figured with the left side of the line all new it would be worse, but it wasn't at all.
Duke nailed him. I love how at the end Watson turns around and has a "wtf?" moment LolI've been complaining about the blocking by the TEs and even the RBs. However, on this play, Duke deserves some credit.

They will conveniently leave that part out. Context doesn’t even matter to them. Just straight narrative.
First, who is “them” you both keep going on about, pretty sure everyone has said he played a good game. One good game though doesn’t mean we’ve turned a corner. OB had several games where he coached it perfectly but did that mean that all the critique about him was wrong?
Second Watson played a great game and looked great. I was happy to have him as our QB and felt he was worth the money today. Now all he has to do is do it again next week and the weeks after that. That doesn’t mean he has to be perfect every game but to be what we hope he will be the games like today have to out number the bad games. So I will breath a lot easier when we can string several of these together and no I don’t expect that to happen until we have a new HC and scheme.
What I find funny is we have one win and you guys are acting like a Dallas fan. We are not going to the Super Bowl and the team still sucks so enjoy the small victories where we can get them but also remember as the old saying goes.
Never fail to learn in victory what you would learn in defeat.
Considering the Texans do not have a running game, this was as efficient an offensive performance this team could have against this opponent. As @steelbtexan mentioned, this is not one of the NFL's elite defenses the Texans faced. But, it was a Belichick coached defense, and that means something. Kelly should make copies of this game and distribute it across the league when he's looking for a gig this offseason.Apart from the running game, that may have been the best offensive effort all year

Unfortunately missed the game, maybe I should do it more often. Sounds like Watson had a good game. I'll watch tomorrow, maybe even sober.Barely 3 or 4 pages posted here and it’s almost the half lol.

If the shoe fits, wear it proudly. Oh we can’t call out people on here anymore.
People on here are acting like the season is over. It's not over till we say it's over" Repeat after me..It's not too late for 8 and 8!
Only 1.5 ypc though. They have to be better than that.Considering the Texans do not have a running game, this was as efficient an offensive performance this team could have against this opponent.

R. Johnson no doubt had a strong game.Only 1.5 ypc though. They have to be better than that.
the pass protection was really good though. I thought Johnson played pretty damn good
Good freaking win . That's all that matters. Moving right alongVery intelligent, well thought out arguments there.

Wait.....Well there’s no argument here. “Them” know who they are. If the shoe fits wear it. I’m not really sure what you are looking for.
Patriots have no pass rush.Someone please diagnose our better than normal offensive line play today, and explain it !
I was thinking Roby broke his tibiaBurkhead also looks to me that he suffered a torn ACL (with more confidence than with Wynn).
Patriots have no pass rush.
We talked about this before the game. This was a winnable game because the Patriots defense isn't very good. Part of that is a weak pass rush.Credit the oline for finally having a great game
Credit Kelly for putting a game plan together in which allowed Watson to get the ball out faster.

Celebrate. I'm not going to stop you. But please don't think this means our OL is better than it was last week or the week before.
H
If Kelly could do that he'd have done it last week, or any week before now & we wouldn't be in the position we're in now.
I didn't study the Patriots D, but watching the game, & again the highlights you provided, the Patriots played very WYSIWYG. What it was before the snap was basically what it was after. DW4 has always played well against such defenses.
Watson had a great game. I'm not saying any different.
The OL did what they were supposed to do. No need for participation trophies.

And Welcome back Atkins!
Oh no way am I celebrating or thinking our offensive line has improved. I’m just giving them their credit. Especially when Tunsil didn’t play and Howard got injured in the 3rd quarter. You know they catch a lot of heat from me.
Since O’Briens departure the offense play calling has look better.
I wouldn't say "great". There was absolutely zero holes for the running game. 13 carries for 19 yards. Ouch!
Which makes me question Tim Kelly. Duke Johnson is not a between the tackles runner. Even inside zone. We need to be running heavy to the outside. Pitches, tosses, sweeps..... We should never see another run up the middle unless it's a draw.I wouldn't say "great". There was absolutely zero holes for the running game. 13 carries for 19 yards. Ouch!

This has been a constant in the BOB regime, not using guys to their strengths. He keeps acquiring these fast, pass-catching backs like Lamar Miller, Tyler Ervin, Akeem Hunt, Duke... but tries to make them something they're not. Besides Arian, Carlos Hyde was probably best fit for this style.
Still say Bell would have been a prefect fit for this scheme. A bulldozer that doesnt need much blocking for because he just runs over defenders. Seems to be what OB thought all RBs should be like.
