    Damn it's great to see the defense clicking with Watt and Clowney together again.

    Would’ve been the perfect game if they played their starters but yes! Texans defense looks fantastic.

    JJ, Clowney & Covington getting through their line

    My problem is that it looks just like what he tries to do in the regular season. Of all of the spots on the team, offensive coordinator is by far the weakest spot the Texans have.

    Yeah. Much better than Schaub's Pick 6's from a 2 yard pass attempt.

    Texans averaged the most points per game in the NFL with Deshaun Watson last season.


    What are you talking about?

    Look at literally everything else they've done on offense since BOB took over. The fact that Watson was able to make up for the disadvantage of BOB for a few games last season doesn't make it any better.

    I'll repeat: the Texans led the league in scoring with Deshaun Watson.

    It's preseason, so it's a vanilla offense.

    Our offense is tailored to Deshaun Watson, who is unlike any other quarterback we've had in this franchise's history - Mich less Obrien's tenure.

    Apples to oranges and doesn't matter.

    It is because they O'Brien is being as vanilla as possible. He doesn't want to show ANYTHING with Watson.

    Rams didn’t play many starters on offense and our defense took advantage of it for sure

    Can't blame him much when the O-line doesn't try to stop the pass rush.
