Every time I think of TY Hilton, I think of this;

Every time I think of Hilton, I think of this...

3 (68) Houston - DeVier Posey, WR Ohio State

3 (92) Indianapolis - TY Hilton, WR Florida International

 

[OzzO]

WTF happened? I fell asleep during the pre-game and when I wake up, Savage is the QB. What happened to Fitzy?

McNair wanted to keep Fitz in there but OB overruled him and brought in Savage.

 

[PapaL]

Is case on the practice squad

He sucks more. Let it go bro. We've moved on.

 

[mussop]

well at least we can say, we didn't make the playoffs because our QB's got hurt.

And when the hell are the refs going to call a effin Holding call against Watt?

 

[thunderkyss]

Big sack..... that's how you do it MVP.

 

[Goodwrench3]

We just need a QB. A QB solve all the problems, this is the true, I think!

 

[Bulls on Parade]

15th sack for J.J. Watt. Only down 7 points. If we can just get a spark from our offense we can still win this game. Come on, Tom Savage. Don't be afraid. Step up in the pocket and make some good throws.

 

[amazing80]

This is just comical now.

I'm not laughing.

 

[False Start]

Watt!!

You didn't wake up, just having a wee nightmare.

 

[Big Lou]

We need to pick up one first down in order to run out the clock. Lol

 

[MEGA SWATT]

Manziel pick lookin pretty good right about now

 

[PapaL]

Savage w the SWEET adjustment. There you go!

 

[TexanExile]

Go easy on the kid. Savage still has better numbers than Manziel today.

 

[TheMatrix31]

Use. Foster. In. The. Passing. Game.

 

[stonewhite]

Manziel pick lookin pretty good right about now

Yea he just threw another pick

 

[Thorn]

You didn't wake up, just having a wee nightmare.

 

[markn]

Burn clock , get to halftime , regroup. If we go in only down by 7 this is savageable

 

[mussop]

Three defensive holding calls in one half.

And none on their OL. What a ****ing joke!

 

[PapaL]

Manziel pick lookin pretty good right about now

4/9 22 yards 2 INT down 20-0 sounds pretty good!

 

[JB]

Manziel pick lookin pretty good right about now

Not in the least... hows he doing today?

And maybe you could find a bigger image?

 

[badboy]

I agree with dumping on the QB is premature but no, that was on him. Basic football right there. It wasn't a good exchange on the QB's part. He came out of it right out of sync.

With that said, getting upset about a rookie who hasn't been getting reps, lack of experience and getting thrown out there fresh you can only expect so much. Let him get his lumps and go from there. Folks need to relax.

Savage put the ball in his hand midriff and don't say Foster looking for holes as the announcer did. RBs accept ball without looking all the time. If ball is in his gut he should hold on; basic football right there!! Doesn't matter what QB did, ball is in Foster's gut..hold the ball.

 

[OzzO]

Manziel pick lookin pretty good right about now

4 for 9 for 22 yards and 2 INT's? Nah, not really

 

[Kimmy]

I see what you did there …

Burn clock , get to halftime , regroup. If we go in only down by 7 this is savageable

 

[Big Lou]

Manziel pick lookin pretty good right about now

OMG, may have to put you on block.

 

[WolverineFan]

Manziel pick lookin pretty good right about now

Yea that 4/9 for 22 yards and 2 INT's is looking real good...

 

[markn]

I see what you did there …

Glad someone was paying attention!

 

[gwallaia]

4/9 22 yards 2 INT down 20-0 sounds pretty good!

In his first start Manziel is 4-9 for 22 yards and 2 ints. But he does have 3 yards rushing on 3 carries

Ball never made it to his gut

Jesus H image size Christ, ever heard of ???

 

[Bulls on Parade]

I don't know about drafting a quarterback with that first overall pick. As hindsight would lead me to believe, maybe we should have traded up one pick from pick #33 to snag Teddy Bridgewater at #32. He's probably going to be the best quarterback from the 2014 draft class. He's putting up some nice stats as a rookie. Just our luck the Vikings traded up for him one pick ahead of us.

 

[PapaL]

3rd and 6? It's Macho Man time. Oh Yeaaaaah!

 

[OzzO]

PDS ‏@PatDStat
One thing that is not seen is how the flow (cadence) of the QB throws off things. Offensive line trying to get used to Savage on the run.

 

[PapaL]

 

[stonewhite]

Bomb

 

[TexansFight]

Nice throw Savage.

 

[badboy]

amazing what a bit of time does for a QB

 

[legacy_gt]

Use that arm

 

[markn]

Good boy

 

[Bulls on Parade]

Nice pass by Tom Savage. He does have an NFL quality arm.

 

[PapaL]

Savage w more yards in one throw than Midget Manziel has in a half. Oh Yeah!

 

[OzzO]

niiiiice touch Savage to Hop

 

[mussop]

Bout time OB grew some balls!!!!!

 

[TexanExile]

Quick! Equal and opposite overreaction!

 

[TheMatrix31]

Good call by Obrien. Open the ****ing thing up. Go over the top again. Make them respect the pass so you can run.

 

[Big Lou]

Nice catch by Hopkins but he should have been called for taunting there so we need to have a talk with him.

 

[TheMatrix31]

A minute and three timeouts? They're gonna score.

 

[PapaL]

Wawawaaaa

 

[stonewhite]

****!!

 

[Ranger Tom]

I was wondering if we were going to go for it there...
