Week 2: Texans vs Colts

[Dejaview]

CJ seems to operate better in an up tempo offense.

I was just going to post this. Agree 100%. I think Mills does also.especially behind this current OL.

 

[Texansballer74]

F*** man! Are you that much of a Stroud hater? They’ve got a sandlot at best OL and absolutely no run game and he still threw for 384 yards, 2 TD and NO picks.
[/QUOT
Hey someone said that oline we saw today is better than last years oline. I’m still trying to see how. Lol

 

[Texansballer74]

Got to, he doesn’t have time

 

[KrustyTheClown]

There's a reason the NFL has instituted these protocols. Has nothing to do with being a pansy. It has to do with medically proven issues from being concussed.

 

[corry]

I think this is a good observation.

Unfortunately, our OC has the need to call power run plays with practice squad level lineman.

Brutal.

 

[Texian]

Which counts more, Stroud playing behind one of the worst o-lines in the NFL, or, Stroud playing against one of the worst defensive backfields in the NFL?

When you are playing from 3 TDs behind, many consider those passing yards as garbage yards.

I think most young QB's do.

Less time to have to overthink and second guess situations rather than just quick scan/read and react.

With reps and film study comes the NFL level processing to take time to break down what's in front of them in a more thorough way.

I think what you are describing is the recipe for a shitsandwich.

 

[76Texan]

Pansy concussion 'protocol' pulled him.
Be afraid.

Yes, you should be afraid because that will happen again; not to mention other bad things that might happen to a QB.

 

[Brisco_County]

As Texans fans we've had to suffer through the learning curves of many young QB's. We've never seen one put up numbers like this with 0 ints and passes the eye test. We have a special one in Stroud. Our QB woes may finally be over.

 

[76Texan]

The only garbage time stats was the last drive of the game.

You've been watching football for a long time, you ought to know that.

 

[sprtsfanatic]

Lance Z before the draft, said X and Y ended up happening. AKA his sources weren't correct.

So his sources are only correct when it makes sense with what you think?

He was wrong this year at the draft. Horribly wrong.

And I will mention again sense reading comprehension is a struggle. He said last year when he got Stingley and Green correct. Those sources were college related. AKA THEY WERE NOT TEXANS SOURCES...................................................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree. Lance Zerlien is GARBAGE...how he is considered a reporter or a talking head is beyond me

Garbage yardage can still give info.

He's a rookie. Even garbage time snaps are valuable.

Yep so at what point does offensive coaches utilize this?

 

[gwallaia]

On a positive note. Trill Burgers are now in the stadium and they did not screw them up.

 

[76Texan]

If all the units had played at the same level as the QB and the WRs, the Texans win this game handily.

 

[Texian]

I'm not drinking Kool-Aid before, during, and after the game. I'm sure if I was my perspective would change and I would have butterflies and flowers flying out of my hiney and visions of 10 straight Super Bowls in every dream.

See what I mean?

I can’t believe Stroud hasn’t thrown a pick with as many attempts as he’s had. Maybe the low S2 score people just started yapping about in predraft process is a good thing?

For being “dumb as a box of rocks” as some posters tend to call him… he’s been pretty careful with his ball placement!

What does all this has to do with garbage stats?

This makes your opinion bias and rules out any impartiality. Which means you can’t recognize good football being played. Glass half empty all the time. You can’t evaluate players thinking the way you do.

You just can’t get out of your own way no matter how much football you do know. You will always miss the forest for the trees.

Sure. You want to blame ownership. That’s a BS reason and we all know it. Ownership isn’t coaching or playing the game.

Gardner Minshew was the best QB in the game today QBR 112.1 vs Stroud QBR 103.5

 

[austins23]

For context, I could have attained a QBR of at least 80 today against that craptastic defense

 

[steelbtexan]

He's well connected in the scouting community and does a great job with his prospect write ups.

We will see in 3 yrs how this all turns out.

I think you got it bassackwards. I can see the forest and the trees because my eyeballs are not floating in Kool-Aid. You do know that a glass half empty is grammatically incorrect, right? Half of anything that is empty, is empty. The owner hired the GM, and the HC and made 1st RD draft picks but has nothing to do with outcome and performance. OK then.

FIFY

I've seen about 8 passes that should have been picked.

 

[TexansBull]

What you are trying to say to be correct is that the owners do not play the game. They assemble the pieces. The coaches choosing to go for it on 4th down during the game is not an ownership decision. The player stretching for the first down is not an ownership action. The QB completing 70% of passes is not an ownership stat.

 

[TexansBull]

I've seen about 8 passes that should have been picked.

If should haves mattered their would be a stat box for it.

 

[austins23]

If the run game would have been anywhere near competent today it may have changed the outcome.
like I said, “may have”

Garbage stats or not, QB1 hasn’t thrown a INT in about 90 attempts. That’s pretty damn good.
gotta get this Oline back and together.
Having said that, what happened to the defense? It was UGLY today. Can’t tackle and still don’t know what to do with tight ends.

 

[corry]

Oh weird. Patrick Mahomes throws about 5 balls a game that should or could have been picked.

You know what, lets pretend all of his successes didn't matter and he actually sucks.

The logic of toxicity.

 

[NitroGSXR]

I've seen about 8 passes that should have been picked.

I probably would word it as “could have”. A couple of those were batted or deflected passes too.

 

[leebigeztx]

Stay out the rabbit hole with him

 

[jradMIT]

Garbage or not, it was high level QB play.

Man y’all ninjas need to stop the crazy talk. Giants were down three touchdowns as well and came back and won. The game isn’t over until it’s over. If the Texans score a Touchdown on the previous drive before the last one, the score would’ve been 31-27. With a FG 31-23.
Ive seen teams come back from being down 28 and win.

 

[zshawn10]

And pouty boy Stroud was a wasted pick.

I hope this is a troll post because if this is serious...oof

The guy is outperforming several QBs who just got handed extensions over the course of the season through two weeks with 4/5 starting O line men out, a rookie OC who seems over his depth, and no running game. It's for sure impressive if nothing else

Wow and all that will change if he would just drink kool-aid?

 

[TexanBorn51]

It's hard to improve upon mistakes and weaknesses when the main weakness is having to play 2nd & 3rd stringers against 1st stringers. The injury bug has infested the Texans and bitten them hard.

hey injuries is an excuse the next player up has to do his job potential to shine. If not fine but that's why you have backups. Backups become starters so how by learning and playing to their potential injuries happen all the time
