Houston Texans @ Cleveland Browns. 11/16. Noon. CBS. **Official Gameday Thread**

[Wolf]

The browns pulled a Texans on that one

Killed a TD

 

[WolverineFan]

Looks like the Texans have another head coach who doesn't play to win, just plays to not lose...

Guess O'Brien didn't learn EVERYTHING from the hoodie...

It's a little easier to play to win when Tom Brady is your QB.

Not absolving OB because that was horrendous playcalling inside the red zone, but he just freaking went for it on 4th down a couple plays before that. Way too reactionary to turn right around and dump on him for being a puss.

 

[BullNation4Life]

20-7 with 9 minutes to go on the road with a QB getting his first NFL start. I wouldnt be too critical of the playcall.

Typical losing attitude. Play not to win. That mentality didn't work out too well for the last Texans HC

 

[TheMatrix31]

Cush again

 

[hradhak]

Happy with going for it on the 4th down. Not sure that that was the best play for the situation, but I'm glad it workd.

Second time Cushing has decleated Hoyer. Damn son.

 

[False Start]

Cush!

 

[TheMatrix31]

Perhaps we were a bit too quick to write Brian Cushing's epitaph?

 

[Wolf]

Cushing going to make Manziel come in

 

[steelbtexan]

Cushing with plays.

 

[JB]

Bouye playing really soft

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Cushing got through on both hits on the QB running straight through untouched.

 

[Hervoyel]

Texans D taking a series off

 

[TheMatrix31]

Cool story, pass defense.

Saw that crap for 8 years with another coach who played "not to lose" put your foot on their throat and put it out of reach.

Now look what Cleveland is doing...

He's great coming downhill. It's when he has to play in space that it becomes a problem.

 

[Hervoyel]

Need another turnover

 

[Pantherstang84]

Thank you Bill O'Brien for not going for the throat.

If fitzpatrick made a throw like that everyone would be livid. Mallet had promise but man that was terrible. We got lucky

You mean ten year veteran game manager Fitzpatrick whose only job was not to screw up? Yes, fans probably would have been less forgiving.

Every now & then the coach makes a call & he's waiting for the QB to say, "Hell nah.. we got this."


& Mallett can always call an audible.

 

[TheMatrix31]

Good ****. Now take care of the ball.

 

[JB]

Now put it out of reach offense!

 

[Pantherstang84]

Now slit their throats and let's go back home.

This D came to kick some ass today.

 

[Hervoyel]

D woke up. Now let's not be Gary ****ing Kubiak and lets drive down and score one more time.

 

[steelbtexan]

Defense comes up with a GW stop.

Run the ball. Then run it some more.

 

[False Start]

Lets score!

I'm shocked that the 2nd hit wasn't flagged. But I'm not complaining.

Your first start for a new team ,and your trying to win the starting QB job. Im sure that not the time you want to say, naw coach I got this going to do my own thing.

 

[BullNation4Life]

Good ****. Now take care of the ball.

And put this game away...

Leave nothing to chance...

 

[Hervoyel]

A healthy Arian Foster and this is a 21+ point lead

Repped!!! I'm tired of this limp wristed lavender packet way of playing football in Houston.

Cut their veins open and bleed them out all over themselves...again and again and again.

 

[TheMatrix31]

Grrrrrrrr.

 

[RTP2110]

Dumb idea going tempo there

It's Mallett's first start. Forgive me for not questioning OB's manhood for playing it somewhat conservative. In his first 2 starts The Hoodie had Brady throw the ball 23 times and 24 times. Was he playing not to lose as well?

Some of you are so illogically reactionary to everything O'Brien does. He just threw it on 4th & 3 but he's playing not to lose because we had a bad series in the red zone.

 

[Hervoyel]

Gary is back apparently. Nice.

 

[gary]

Boy, a coach can't win on here.

 

[BullNation4Life]

Ugh...good grief...

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Something's definitely wrong with Lechler.

 

[JB]

Poor OL play on that 3 and 1

 

[Wolf]

Thought the same thing

If you ever get a moment step back and read your own posts and then realize what an obsessive know-it-all asshole you sound like sometimes. Try it. It's good for a laugh.

 

[legacy_gt]

Lucky that wasn't a pick right there. Stared that down the whole way.

cold leg

 

[hradhak]

3rd and short we should have QB sneaked. Up the middle was a better shot I think. Don't mind the up tempo since it was working.

D gotta play big here.

He's playing not to lose because Cleveland is loading the box to stop the run. A quick slant would have done nicely and was low risk.

Pretty clear BOB wanted a sneak there.

 

[Big Lou]

Poor OL play on that 3 and 1

I thought OB was talking about a past fishing trip when he was talking to the OL before commercial.

 

[JB]

wtf is Swag doing?
