    Brady skipped OTAs. Texans skipped entire offseason.

    Worthless in this system.. BOB loves to use Miller as a battering ram when he should be using his speed. shrug..

    He didn't though.

    He threw a wide open TD pass and Griffin hesitated on his route.

    And as a result, Watson screwed up a hand off resulting in a turnover and then missed a wide open TE for a first down. I have no doubt that once they get enough snaps, the team will start to look better, but they are in preseason shape right now instead of regular season shape.

    No, Watson just missed the wide open TE.

    Texans will get down 21-0 and claw back in second half but fall short after coming out flat. Nice job getting them ready for the regular season, Texans coaching staff.

    It's difficult to trust a guy who can't recognize how to use Miller. It's so obvious.

    If BoB MUST run HIS system, why even sign a player like Lamar ?

    I never understood the hype so many people had with this team. We are only good when we have an elite running game and that hasn't happened since Arian Foster. Our RB is just a guy and our offensive line will be one of the worst in the NFL.

    Not to mention... It is a rare event when Bill O'Brien is the smartest coach on the field. Notice how good teams have no problem taking our best weapons away from us? Look at the numbers Watt and Hopkins have against the Patriots. Meanwhile, we could put 11 guys on Gronk and he would still have 2 TDs.

    I went with 7-9 in the prediction thread. Maybe I was too optimistic.

    No need to premature ejaculate over half a quarter.

    I think I'll trust Romo's analysis over yours. Griffin should have kept running more vertical because it was busted coverage.

    I'm worried about Clowney and Mercilus. Whenever JJ plays, they are invisible. When JJ gets injured they look amazing..

    The hype for the current team is obviously Watson's potential.
