The Houston Texans are calling Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts the AJ 80 Hall of Fame Game

The Houston Texans are calling Sunday’s game against the Indianapolis Colts the AJ 80 Hall of Fame game, as they will be honoring the franchise’s first Hall of Famer throughout the afternoon.
The main event will be the halftime ceremony when Johnson will receive his Pro Football Hall of Fame ring on the field. Johnson already got his prestigious gold jacket, so the 14K gold ring with a total diamond weight of 1.75 carats is the final piece of his Pro Football Hall of Fame membership.
 
I will be very surprised if we lose this game even though historically speaking we are snake-bit when it comes to the damn Colts.
 
The following Texans players are inactive:
:ILB Azeez Al-Shaair
G Nick Broeker
CB Myles Bryant
WR Steven Sims
ILB Henry To'oTo'o
FS Jimmie Ward

We are hurting at LB. These are all the linebackers I see listed on our roster. I guess Pitre could possibly fill in.

Azeez Al-Shaair - out
Henry To'oTo'o - out
----------------------------
Jake Hansen
Neville Hewitt
Jamal Hill
Del'Shawn Phillips
Devin White

I see Troy Hairston (FB) elevated from the PS.
 
I expect a close, hard-fought game. The Colts have won three of their last four games. The Texans need to put together a solid game in every area, including coaching. Coaching and o-line have been disappointing this season.
 
I expect us to come out and win today. No excuses. We barely lost on the road at GB last week and we played a sloppy game. It's the Texans vs. Texans. Don't beat ourselves and we are good.
 
If the Offensive line can stop being offensive, we should be able to win this game.

An offensive line that could pass block against a high school team would be an improvement. The oline looked better last year. It's definitely regressed this year and it shows in CJ's performance.
 
CJ seeing ghosts and it’s causing footwork issues and general happy feet. Hopefully he will settle down. All in all, 3-0 good start. Defense - your up.
 
Why did CJ throw that pass? Metchie was blanketed.
Unpopular opinion, he's not playing up to his potential. He's forcing, something he didn't do much at all last year. Poor decisions every game are normal but his appear to be up this year from last.
