Gameday Thread - 8/14 - Texans VS 49'ers Preaseason Game 1

[EllisUnit]

Sick of these short throws on 3rd.

No lie this will get old quick if this is how Brock plays. What's the point of speed if you don't use it ?

 

[Brandon420tx]

Not particularly liking the short route call, also not liking the idea of feeding BraxMiller, he should be a gadget not a fixture

 

[mussop]

Lol, dude. It's only game one in the preseason with this offense.

Which is why I said so far! And Stull so far looks like ****. Whats with throwing short of the first on 3rd down when you have plenty of time?

 

[TheRealJoker]

Braxton Miller seemed to cut that route short. No way that route is supposed to go 2 yards on 4th and 3

Our Oline should be looking better than this, even this early. They aren't giving Brock any time.

That is the difference for me as a compare to the past. In light of the OLine deficiencies Os is not compounding mistakes.

I am not saying he looks good, but with past QBs, I expected and watched worse outcomes.

 

[kiwitexansfan]

Another missed tackle, DB didn't try to use his arms or maintain eye contact with his target.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Our rush is ?????

 

[DocBar]

Anybody else underwhelmed?

 

[disaacks3]

There's a good-looking pass...oh wait.

[EllisUnit]

Our rush is ?????

Our tackling as well...

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

The Texans CBs are giving 10-15 yds to receivers off the line too often.

 

[disaacks3]

Another missed tackle by a LB. geez

This team needs practice tackling.

 

[Texansballer74]

Too many missed tackles.

 

[brg88tx]

our linebackers are embarrassingly slow. every team we face will exploit this.

 

[Heath Shuler]

Sick of these short throws on 3rd.

YAC baby YAC

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Is there any source that keeps track of missed tackles in a game?

 

[Brisco_County]

Savage is going to come in and light up these 2nd stringers.

 

[gwallaia]

Hey!

 

[gwallaia]

Hey!

 

[OzzO]

recovered fumble..... good, needed some momentum shift and time for the D to catch a breath... and learn how to tackle

 

[PapaL]

Coaching staff should be embarrassed. Team looks terrible on all sides.

*I missed the first couple of series. Didn't see the defensive score.

 

[powda]

We're losing the LOS on both sides and can't tackle. Brock is underwhelming so far.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Good test for Brock.........backed up to the wall.

 

[EllisUnit]

Savage is going to come in and light up these 2nd stringers.

Yeah I believe so....Brock has me concerned, yes I know it's Pre season but damn.

 

[speedfreek]

You know, I kind of expected this. Seems like the staff really doesn't care
about the first preseason game. Has been this way since BoB got here.

Maybe just trying to ease everyone into game shape without pushing hard
enough to risk injury.

Now the first regular season game -- they better come to play for that one..

 

[mussop]

I hope so because brock sure ain't doing much. I don't want to go another year with crap at QB.

 

[JCTexan]

On replay, the defense didn't force sh!t. That ball just came loose without a defender touching him.

Aaron Wilson ‏@AaronWilson_NFL
DuJuan Harris fumbles on hit by big rookie nose tackle D.J. Reader

Kurtis Drummond with the fumble recovery. #Texans

Savage is in

 

[TheRealJoker]

Kurtis Drummond looking good

 

[Brandon420tx]

Did Reader or the LB force that fumble?

 

[False Start]

The one thing I always know I'll get out of every Texans preseason game is that I'll be saying "**** you Spencer" to the TV before the first quarter is over no matter how good or bad things are going.

It's a constant.

"The object of the game of football, Is to get the ball into the End Zone by either running or throwing the ball. Every time this feat is accomplished, Your team gets 6 points, then The kicker comes in and tries to kick an extra point which counts for one point."


That is my best Spencer Tillman impression.

 

[JB]

Couldn't see much because satellite kept cutting out, but from what I did see our team didn't look too good

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

I'm going to send Crennel 50 protractors to pass out to the D........maybe it can help with their tackling angles.

 

[kiwitexansfan]

Aaron Wilson ‏@AaronWilson_NFL
DuJuan Harris fumbles on hit by big rookie nose tackle D.J. Reader

OH HELL YEAH!!

 

[speedfreek]

don't need to be running miller this much in preseason game 1

 

[Brisco_County]

Hilliard is demonstrating what I hope he would.

 

[kiwitexansfan]

Good test for Brock.........backed up to the wall.

Aren't going to put Brock in that position to fail and lose team confidence even more.

 

[Sisco96]

Not bad for Savage

 

[mussop]

That's how you throw a pass for a first down

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

You would deprive me of an education????

 

[nut]

2 big turnovers so far. that's worth something.

 

[Brisco_County]

That beautiful throw by Savage is exactly why I like him more than Osweiler. He just has better arm talent and accuracy. And it's going to cause another QB controversy this season.

 

[False Start]

Yeah I believe so....Brock has me concerned, yes I know it's Pre season but damn.

Savage is going to come in and light up these 2nd stringers.

I really hope that happens I want Savage to be the man

 

[gwallaia]

Switching station to watch Bolt race

 

[speedfreek]

shane getting a good workout today

 

[Brandon420tx]

The offense is better without a FB in there

 

[Nitrofish]

I have about 6 shots of Jägermeister setup here ready to play the "Smoke Through a Keyhole" game and I have not had a shot yet. WTF Tillman?

 

[kiwitexansfan]

XSF totally wiffing on his block and giving up the 4th down.
