No, it was the safety no. 3 that missed the tackle.
It looks like at the 1:30 mark that Sauce missed the tackle on Tank.
Interesting.
It’ll be nice if Stroud and Dell develop a rhythm similar to Luck and Hilton. I think their chemistry could make our offense electric.
I think Stroud and Dell could be a special combination. But I sure hope that 21 year olds aren't calling the shots on Kirby. But I love this pick and think he is a playmaker.

I am all for excitement but as Mike Tyson said things change when one gets punched in the face.Tank's interviews and his reaction to being drafted by the Texans makes me think he's about to go off. Don't be shocked if he's our best WR this year.
Thats fair, but things can also change when you get in the ring with Floyd Mayweather or Pernell Whitaker and you find yourself constantly swinging at air..I am all for excitement but as Mike Tyson said things change when one gets punched in the face.
My bad. I am watching on mobile.No, it was the safety no. 3 that missed the tackle.
You can see the number clearly on the replay.
Sauce, no. 1, was the RCB.
He was the defender that finally chased Tank down and forced him to go out of bound.
FIFY. For the dramatic effect. You have to add the emoji.Interesting.![]()
I’m of a similar opinion. I think he’s going to get 1000+ yards this season.Tank's interviews and his reaction to being drafted by the Texans makes me think he's about to go off. Don't be shocked if he's our best WR this year.
I like the positive outlook. If Darnell Mooney and Marquise Brown can have 1000 yard seasons there’s no reason Dell can’t. His route running is excellent on top of his physical abilities. A true student of the game.I’m of a similar opinion. I think he’s going to get 1000+ yards this season.
Again, the replay shows the number very clearly. That was no. 7, not Sauce.My bad. I am watching on mobile.
What about the subsequent play? It looks like Sauce is on him gives up about 15 yard reception due to giving a cushion and getting faked out.
Hopefully they get creative. Stacked formations, motion, misdirection, jet sweeps, etc.Dell is going to give nickel corners hell right off the bat.
His first step and ability to get quick separation are going to translate to the next level.
He can go from having a guy on his hip to seven yards of separation in the blink of an eye.
They're probably going to jam him a lot and try to be physical at the line. And it will work some.
But when it doesn't work? He's going to make that DB look foolish.
I hope you’re right. I hope Slowic finds ways to get the ball in his hands. A guy like that should be able to help generate space for everybody.Dameon Pierce is about to benefit the most from this pick. Having an explosive WR will create lanes and we already know ol boy is a beast in the middle.
The Texans haven't had anyone that could beat man coverage, other than Cooks. Double Cooks and shut down the offense. Mills wasn't going to make any off schedule plays or extend plays.Lately it looks like we’re playing 7 against 11.
Damn. I keep forgetting we've got Schultz. Dude has 17 TD by himself the last 3 seasons. All Texans TEs combined the last 3 years have 20 TD.The Texans haven't had anyone that could beat man coverage, other than Cooks. Double Cooks and shut down the offense.

Schultz, Metchie, and Dell are guys that can get open. The WCO can scheme guys open. The offense will look better. 21st in the league would be 10 spots higher than 2022. 21st is my over/under for the offense in 2023.
We got 3 heavy hitters in free agency.Damn. I keep forgetting we've got Schultz. Dude has 17 TD by himself the last 3 seasons. All Texans TEs combined the last 3 years have 20 TD.
Add Mason to this listWe got 3 heavy hitters in free agency.
Shultz, Ward, and Perryman are the real deal!
I don’t know anything about him, I’ll look him upAdd Mason to this list
I like those comps. I kept wanting to say Tyreek Hill, knowing darn well he ain’t Tyreek Hill.This is why we drafted Dell and I think he has the ability to be a playmaker like Welker, Edelman, Amendola, Dell. Notice who is always around Belichick:
I don't think he called the shot... he made a suggestion. You know the media likes to play with facts and uses semantics where they can.That's concerning if the rookie QB is calling the shots.
Having input, yes.
Calling the shots before he has even stepped out on an NFL field is a bit much IMO.
IF you chose him... sink or swim I suppose.

Right, I don’t think it went down the way Tank believes it did. But I understand how he would believe it did.I don't think he called the shot... he made a suggestion. You know the media likes to play with facts and uses semantics where they can.
Agreed. The Texans met with Tank several times throughout the pre draft process. They did their homework on the player and thought he was a fit for this team.Right, I don’t think he went down the way Tank believes it did. But I understand how he would believe it did.
He connected with Stroud at the combine. When Stroud was drafted Tank hit him up & asked him to tell the Texans to draft him too.
I don’t know if CJ ever said, “draft Tank” I’ve never seen that report.
Caserio said he asked Stroud about what the players were hearing. That way he could determine if he needs to trade up or if he could trade down, or if the player might be undrafted.
Yes, but then I have seen the Texans do stranger things than this.I don't think he called the shot... he made a suggestion. You know the media likes to play with facts and uses semantics where they can.
I read this too. Caserio asked Stroud to ask Tank if other teams were talking to him to get a feeling of when to draft Tank.Caserio said he asked Stroud about what the players were hearing.

At least he isn’t playing QB…especially at that height…reminds me of someone…Damn he’s skinny……shifty but skinny as hell
But those legs man, they look like twigsAt least he isn’t playing QB…especially at that height…reminds me of someone…
Many coming into the NFL look that way their first yearBut those legs man, they look like twigs
There was mention of running him in motion pre snap. Maybe they are thinking of getting the D off balance from where he was.Corners will try to jam him or out physical him and punish him if he works in traffic (at least as much punishment as the modern NFL allows).
He can win on his quicks and shiftiness. That first cut looks wicked. Once he is free, it's Katy bar the door. If a corner locks on him, it's over for that play and that's the concern.
They need to get creative, especially with teams deploying larger, more physical corners. Shifts, stacks, end-arounds, jet sweeps, hell line him up at RB for all I care and leak him out that way. Used correctly, I think he can be a multi-functional weapon that is more than a simple gadget player, but they need to choose their spots. He's unlikely to be an every-down player at any point in his career, but that doesn't mean he can't be successful and make a big impact.
I'm here for it. Can't wait to see him in action. I trust Bobby and coach Day to find ways to get him involved.
