Savage throws it 50 times Hunt/Grimes/Blue share 25 touches Rest the D Still pissed that we drafted Ervin in the 4th over Jordan Howard (5th), but maybe I'm just a salty IU alum.
In the 3rd place game of my fantasy league.. it's a 2-week playoff setup. I won last week by 60 points so this week I am just starting as many texans as possible: Savage, Blue, Fiedo, Defense, Novak... LOL.
One thing that has annoyed me about the offense is the lack of designed screen plays to the running back. I know Miller/hunt are not David Johnson or Bell but they can still do damage in the passing game. So I hope they look to do that more as opposed to the check down. And The Offense better play the whole game they simply have to get something going All the vets on defense should be resting or at the very least cut their snaps.
I'd be happy if they treated this more like the 3rd preseason game. Come out with the starters at least to half time. Then start sitting them as the 3rd quarter goes on...with nothing but 2nd teamers in the 4th.
If they do it that way, Osweiler, but IMO Savage needs all the reps he can get unless the O line is so poor that he's getting killed out there.
Nick Novak should get a rest this week. Let someone else handle the kick off duties. Field goals will not be attempted. We will go for it on 4th down or punt. If we are in the red zone, it's automatically 4 down territory
