Week 9 @ the Fish

[steelbtexan]

I want to address this again. If we were talking about the NBA Draft I’d lean more towards this line of thinking. There are only a handful of game changers in the NBA draft.

but in the NFL draft it’s not uncommon for the best player in the draft to be drafted outside the top 5 in every round

While true, the odds of drafting great players are increased with the higher picks and it's not just about 1-1 for me, it's more about being able to find above avg starting level players at 3-1 and 4-1 which are essentially 2nd/3rd rd round picks. Plus it gives you greater ability to move up and down the draft to get the players you want.

 

[Earl34]

The blitz is killing us

It's not even exotic blitzes or stunts.

 

[steelbtexan]

Aha .... I knew you were a bloody Highlander !

The V on my computer is screwed up.

 

[powda]

Maybe this is a stupid question but why is a game featuring 2 afc teams on fox?

 

[dream_team]

That was a horrible spot for Texans

 

[powda]

51 went Tyson on that lol

 

[dream_team]

That's a fumble

 

[KoolAid Sipper]

Maybe this is a stupid question but why is a game featuring 2 afc teams on fox?

Cross-flexing to balance out the schedule or to provide the best matchups possible to the viewing audiences...at least that's what they try to sell us.

 

[OptimisticTexan]

Okay….I’m not watching the game live but is Tim Kelly the OC for both teams? Dolphins trying to screw the Texans out of draft position this go round.

 

[Texansballer74]

Tyrod you got make that simple throw. That should’ve been an easy touchdown

 

[Thorn]

Maybe this is a stupid question but why is a game featuring 2 afc teams on fox?

Are you asking if things the NFL does makes sense?

 

[Speedy]

If I didn’t know any better I’d say both teams look about like they’re 1-7.

 

[MEGA SWATT]

Hang that 3 on that azz, Kubiak style.

 

[steelbtexan]

Quoted for truth

 

[whodknee]

Where is LJ1 ?

 

[Earl34]

These is some really bad QB play on both sides.

 

[TheRealJoker]

So with the current coaching staff, do you think they have the ability to install scheme and coach up marginal talent?

I think Lovie’s defense is a proven defined scheme with a track record of success. Sure there are obvious weaknesses, but with better players that are easier to find because you have a clearly defined scheme those weaknesses are minimized.

On offense, I am not sold there is any sort of plan as long as Tim Kelly has his fingerprints on the offense.

 

[steelbtexan]

Anybody else notice Morrisey is doing a pretty good job at C today?

 

[OptimisticTexan]

Good to hear. I’m following the dots on ESPN Gameday.

 

[steelbtexan]

Where is LJ1 ?

I'm enjoying not seeing him missing tackles and getting burned because he's dumb as a box of rocks. He's another in a long line of busty's.

I’m leaning towards Kyle Hamilton for this defense.

 

[thunderkyss]

That was on the OL

 

[gwallaia]

Offensive line has to be the priority in the draft.

 

[austins23]

Who is in at center?

 

[thunderkyss]

Yeah but poorly thrown balls seem to find him.

 

[TexansFan15]

I’m leaning towards Kyle Hamilton for this defense.

I would love this!

 

[thunderkyss]

Who is in at center?

Looks like Justin “last week my knee looked like a basketball & I’m playing like it” Britt

 

[Texansballer74]

This offensive line is trash

 

[TexasPenguin]

Good Job, Roy Lopez!

 

[austins23]

Looks like Justin “last week my knee looked like a basketball & I’m playing like it” Britt

#79?? That ain’t Britt

 

[steelbtexan]

Man these teams are bad.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Tua isn't playing badly today.

 

[thunderkyss]

Hold on. Miami will put their 2nd team in soon

 

[austins23]

#79?? That ain’t Britt

Morissey

 

[steelbtexan]

Fumble

KPL with his 1st big play as a Texan.

 

[gwallaia]

3 turnovers, wow

 

[austins23]

These guys have no idea how to react to a blitz

 

[steelbtexan]

This offensive line is trash

Christian Sr. has been particularly bad as well as McCray.

 

[MEGA SWATT]

1-7 and likely 1-8
5 page game thread
lame duck ’star QB’ with legal problems
Questionable ownership, front office, and coaching
sigh

 

[Earl34]

Sigh. I keep waiting for a slant on these blitzes.

 

[thunderkyss]

Fire David Culley

 

[powda]

3 turnovers, wow

And all we can manage is 2 fgs.

 

[dream_team]

These guys have no idea how to react to a blitz

They're actually making the correct plays imo, but Tyrod has to connect on these passes.

 

[MEGA SWATT]

Hang that 3 on that azz, Kubiak style.

rinse and repeat

 

[steelbtexan]

3 turnovers, wow

6 pts.

SMH

How many delay of game penalties are the the ST's going to get this game? O/U 5

Good god this team is poorly coached.

 

[gwallaia]

And all we can manage is 2 fgs.

That’s 6 more points I figured we would have at this point.

 

[steelbtexan]

They're actually making the correct plays imo, but Tyrod has to connect on these passes.

Maybe Mills really isn't all that bad?

 

[thunderkyss]

Two possessions starting inside the 35

two field goals. Just watching what we’re watching I know if Miami gets inside the 35 our defense won’t keep them out of the end zone

 

[Lucky]

A winning team is easier to rebuild than a losing team.

If the Texans ever become a winning team, we can test your theory. They'll have to try to rebuild the hard way with this losing team.

 

[Lucky]

Maybe Mills really isn't all that bad?

Maybe everyone is just this bad?
