Week 15 - Chief Boyardee vs Texans

[Number19]

We are tied.

 

[Number19]

The question is why is Mills able to play like this at the end of the season…

Play calling?

 

[Porky]

Freeman looking better than his last stint here. I am semi-impressed with him. Better than Dare. We still need a quality guy in the draft to pair with Pierce.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Hecht let his man through on last play.

 

[nut]

Sure would be nice to win one.

 

[TexansBull]

We are tied.

For the next 5 minutes.

 

[OptimisticTexan]

Driskel back at QB inside the Red Zone……..isn’t fooling anyone!!!!!! Just leave Mills in there b/c if he’s running, good chance no one on defense was expecting it.

Looks like he needed to be reminded his tenure is not a given.

 

[MEGA SWATT]

For the next 5 minutes.

yep. then we take the lead.

 

[OptimisticTexan]

The question is why is Mills able to play like this at the end of the season…

……b/c the HC and OC have “Pink Slip Fever”, so they open it up.

 

[Speedy]

You finally have some rare flow on offense and you screw it up bringing Driskel in?
This team.

 

[TexansBull]

yep. then we take the lead.

Sorry. With that stupid play call with Driskell subbing in for Mills put me in a Debbie downer mood.

no pressure

This shows that coaching is our biggest issue. We are seeing moments of good play, but then our coaches screw it up with their decisions.

 

[TexansBull]

……b/c the HC and OC have “Pink Slip Fever”, so they open it up.

Correct answer.

Coaching.

 

[santo]

If Mills can keep us this close can you imagine what it would be like if we had a good qb?

 

[OptimisticTexan]

Lovie…..keeping those TO’s isn’t worth waiting for 2-minute warning. You’re going to need some time on the clock to avoid putting Mills in the “Hail Mary” situation again.

 

[Mr teX]

No pressure?

i mean that’s obvious thing you pick out…but i think its something else…the playcalling is finally helping him out a bit…which is leading to a little more confidence imo. Gotta give @Texansballer74 a little cred for saying that last week..so we’re both right imo.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

No pressure?

Mills has done his share of Houdinis this game.

 

[Bugman7star]

It's over. Oh well.

 

[Mr teX]

& Lovie’s defense strikes again.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

The Lovie D scheme just plainly stinks.

 

[Number19]

Their kicker is only so-so.

 

[OptimisticTexan]

Harris makes a nice stop after getting blown up on the Mahomes scramble.

 

[Bugman7star]

With this defensive scheme and coaching we can never afford to be in a one score game in the 4th with the other team on offense. Never.

 

[nut]

Mahomes always escapes around the sides. Somebody should be watching for that.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Another Lovie time management fail

 

[OptimisticTexan]

KC FG try coming up.

 

[Number19]

51 yd kick

 

[nut]

Butker missed that XP. He's a good kicker though.

 

[Number19]

Missed

 

[Arky]

OT, baby...

 

[whodknee]

Another tie?

 

[santo]

Alright Mills time to prove your worth

 

[Texansballer74]

Props to the entire team for playing their butts off

 

[Texazan]

Another Lovie time management fail

WTH were they thinking

 

[OptimisticTexan]

Butttttttttker missed the FG!!!!!! Texans are playing for the tie in OT based on Lovie’s track record.

 

[MEGA SWATT]

hooked it beatch!

 

[santo]

1-11-2

 

[Texansballer74]

This freaking sorry ash coach didn’t even try to attempt to run a play to put them in FG.

 

[nut]

Nice choke on that kick.

 

[MEGA SWATT]

Sorry. With that stupid play call with Driskell subbing in for Mills put me in a Debbie downer mood.

OT. BRUH. GOTTA BELIEVE

 

[gwallaia]

I’m in the stadium laughing my ass off

 

[Texian]

Cal has seen enough to bring everyone back. That's it. That's the post.

 

[Bugman7star]

Of course they win the toss. Something weird needs to happen for us to keep them from scoring.

 

[santo]

Two competitive games in a row against playoff teams. Everyone is coming back. lol

My issue with Mills and I've said this before is he's not a natural football player. He has 0 it factor that he's going to let it loose and take command. There is a reason lower round drafted guys like Gus Ferrotte or an undrafted guy like Fitzpatrick can basically be starters at some level in the nfl. The coaches call the plays, but you are the one executing the plays which are fluid. You can't be a robot playing qb especially. Its a feel thing to the way the game is going and when to make a play outside of the play called. You would think by now he would be balls to the wall, but that's not him. He's just content with being a robot.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

middle of the field again

 

[Bugman7star]

Wide open over the middle. Feels familiar...
