Game 8...Silver And Black...Oakland Raiders!

[powda]

Notice oaks time out scenario is a lot like ours last week.

Texans got a first down essentially wasting their timeouts

 

[cameronkrazie86]

Watson is the best QB in the league given the handicap of O'Brien and his craptastic offensive line. Just insane how he wills this team to wins.

 

[KA4Texan]

Why did we have to waste all of those draft picks on TEs, when we just had to sign Fells to a cheap contract?

Isnt it obvious?

OB wanted to find his Gronk.

 

[mussop]

Chucky is a joke. Can’t stand all his stupid faces. Would rather have OB than that ass hat.

So glad Oak. can't just kick a fg to take the lead..

youre assuming we miss the two.

 

[nut]

It would be nice to watch Chuckie fighting BO in a UFC cage match on the 50 after the game.

 

[DanielTx]

That’s why you trade up.

 

[Mollywhopper]

youre assuming we miss the two.

I'm assuming it's not a gimme, of course..

 

[Texansballer74]

Wow now that's the ultimate definition of resilience.

 

[Bugman7star]

We need some divine medical intervention after today.

 

[UnlimitedTexan]

Watson is the best QB in the league given the handicap of O'Brien and his craptastic offensive line. Just insane how he wills this team to wins.

I'm curious (and I'll check later after the game and post shows) what other star QBs are dealing with because it feels like most aren't dealing with BOB but many are dealing with suspect and even bad offensive lines

 

[JamTex]

Texans win!

 

[austins23]

Still want OB out

 

[santo]

Why did we have to waste all of those draft picks on TEs, when we just had to sign Fells to a cheap contract?

When has anything with OB ever made sense?

 

[DanielTx]

Oakland will be a problem in 2 years. Played a good game

 

[dream_team]

Such a gutsy win today. Lots of injuries. Was behind for majority of the game. Watson was down to one eye. Amazing!!!

 

[EVOLVIST]

Either way, he could be playing with essentially one eye and no depth perception the rest of the game.

You only need one eye when you've got the eye of the tiger.

 

[thunderkyss]

Watson quit.... pffft

 

[nut]

As long as Deshaun is not playing with a patch next game we will be okay.

You only need one eye when you've got the eye of the tiger.

A one-eyed man is king in a blind man's world.

 

[santo]

Watson can see more with one eye than OB can with 2.

 

[cameronkrazie86]

I'm curious (and I'll check later after the game and post shows) what other star QBs are dealing with because it feels like most aren't dealing with BOB but many are dealing with suspect and even bad offensive lines

Aaron Rodgers with Mike McCarthy is the only other coach I can think of who seemingly tried his best to call terrible plays and Aaron's greatness overcame it for a long, long time. Watson is playing behind an offensive line with only one great player (Tunsil) and a whole bunch of "meh" at best to this point. He still is making it work. It's just insane how he turns dumpster fire plays into positive plays for the Texans.

 

[thunderkyss]

I like Kubiak. I love Kubiak compared to how I feel about O'Brien. But this team, BO'bs team has more of these gritty, will to win games than Kubiak.

I think anyway

 

[KA4Texan]

Costly win... but hopefully the Brits have some sort of Myagi style healing methods before Jags game.

 

[spek]

We need the bye week in a bad way. Hopefully they get through next week injury free.

 

[ATXtexanfan]

So de have any tackles on offense

Injuries mounting

 

[amazing80]

Watson is carrying this team. I still want to see more consistency from this offense.

 

[nut]

Does anybody else wonder if we could use the occasional blitz package?

 

[ATXtexanfan]

I like Kubiak. I love Kubiak compared to how I feel about O'Brien. But this team, BO'bs team has more of these gritty, will to win games than Kubiak.

I think anyway

Kubiak with DW4 no grit needed

 

[cameronkrazie86]

Kubiak with DW4 no grit needed

I wasn't the biggest fan of Kubiak but yeah, his offensive style would work really, really well with Deshaun's skillset.

 

[UnlimitedTexan]

Good W and game ball goes to Watson. He's the reason we aren't the Bengals right now at this point

We need the bye week in a bad way. Hopefully they get through next week injury free.

Survive in London then we get a break and as a fan, I need a Sunday off as well lol these games have been intense...except the Atlanta game

 

[TheKDog]

Great game by Watson

 

[maverick512000]

Am I happy we won, of course, do I feel like celebrating the win, hell no. This game cost us to much injury wise to beat a team that should never have done as well as they did. This wasn’t one of those “any given Sunday” type games this was a “can team A take advantage of how crappy team B are playing” games. For the first time in awhile no the other team couldn’t take full advantage.

 

[Byrds Man]

I can't believe this team is 5-3. OB is just lucky he has Deshaun Watson.

 

[DanielTx]

Aaron Rodgers with Mike McCarthy is the only other coach I can think of who seemingly tried his best to call terrible plays and Aaron's greatness overcame it for a long, long time. Watson is playing behind an offensive line with only one great player (Tunsil) and a whole bunch of "meh" at best to this point. He still is making it work. It's just insane how he turns dumpster fire plays into positive plays for the Texans.

Just sucks with Watson being so great, he overcomes so many obstacles that saves ob at the very end. I still believe he’s a top 5 qb due to his situation and he has yet to have a losing season. People don’t know what watson will be but he’s writing his own legacy right now. Another win that saved ob.

 

[Porky]

With Clark out there getting Watson killed, he’s is going to be like a pirate. A patch over one eye and a hook where his right hand used to be. And he will still find a way to win. Captain Hook is still the best QB the Texans have ever had.

[thunderkyss]

to beat a team that should never have done as well as they did

It's amazing how many times we say this. Maybe, just maybe we're over estimating our team.

 

[Earl34]

That is silly

I don’t make the rules. Talk to the HC and OC.

 

[ATXtexanfan]

#JesuswithCleats

Jordan, like Dabo said. Total package. Slippery when pocket collapses, in the grasp rule does not apply. Entire field needs to be defended. Basically 12 on 11

But the Injuries are mounting.

Lol what would Sean Payton do with this kid. Or any real coach

Be the next gen Brady/BB?

Making people wonder which elevates the other... the system or the QB.

 

[TheMatrix31]

I don't even give a **** about the win.

We probably just saw JJ Watt's last game in a Texans uniform.

We had our entire C team in on defense.... I'll celebrate the fact that we won just for that reason. This team needs the bye week, yesterday !

The tough part is BOb waiting till the second half to utilize DW4 in a way that works best. I would love to see what kind of production we could have if BOb coordinated the offense whole games in the way that best works.

 

[ATXtexanfan]

So if JJ has a torn pec, this win not worth it

The clowney trade wont go away

 

[amazing80]

So who is out there to trade for? Our current front 7 will not be able to generate pressure without Watt

 

[JamTex]

I don't even give a **** about the win.

We probably just saw JJ Watt's last game in a Texans uniform.

I doubt seriously that it'll be his last game as a Texan, but he may be out for the season with a torn pectoral muscle.

 

[banned1976]

Today’s game is a prime example of why I take the bad with the good with Watson and I don’t understand why others can’t. Does he hold the ball too long? At times. Does he hold the ball like it’s a loaf of bread? Yes, and it does concern me. Is his cadence the reason Tunsil moves? Well, I don’t know about that. Does he have that “it” factor so many of us (including those that complain so much about him) wanted in a QB since 2002? Yes, yes he does.

The tough part is BOb waiting to utilize DW4 in a way that works best. I would love to see what kind of production we could have if he started and stayed with what works to our advantage.

It takes so long because you must first wait for OBs game plan to meltdown.. which allows Watson, to do what Watson does.

IMO its less about utilizing DW and more about OB having very little choice but to let DW be DW

 

[TheMatrix31]

I doubt seriously that it'll be his last game as a Texan, but he may be out for the season with a torn pectoral muscle.

It'd be his third season ender in four years.

He may very well be done.

Even if it's only for this year, not having him for the rest of this year is atrocious anyway because he's practically the only reason to watch.

 

[Seegara]

Why did they keep running to the right with worthless old Clark in there?
