    It'd be hilarious is someone on Inside the NFL called him out on this, but it'd never happen.

    I think it's good when he says it's a road trip from hell.... That means he'll be very impressed when we go 3-0.

    I think you are overreacting to this article.

    The Patriots gave up 31 and almost lost to a Bills team and had issue with a Jets team...both that were considered playoff contenders coming into the season. Nobody doubts that they have defensive issues over there in New England, but they can flat out light teams up.

    The Texans needed a ton of luck to beat the Jags. The Jags were a contender for the #1 pick in the upcoming draft coming into this season.

    Luck? What did lady luck do to help us win that game? I'm pretty sure most of the bounces went their way (Shaub recovering his own fumble could be considered luck I suppose).

    The Texans had as much bad luck in the Jags game as good luck..... hell look at the 1st down differential...

    Thanks but we didn't need anymore evidence. He is on the Mount Rushmore of Hack.

    Remember that Brett Farve to Texans last year he literally made up on TV on the spot with no information at all.

    I dont know about you...but these 3 games are super crucial...going 1-2 is not an option...I want all AFC playoff teams coming through Houston...

    Lions are still extremely dangerous...and have dirty players...so must make sure our studs dont get knicked up...

    The Titans game is big...b/c win that and we wrap up the division...

    Finally, the Pats game is huge just because its against one of the best in our division

    going 2-1 during this road trip is fine...1-2 and we may lose homefield advantage...something i really dont wanna do...The Texans should aim to do better than 4-2 for the rest of the season

    The Bills have a lower-ranked defense than the Jags.

    I don't care what preseason expectations were. That's part of King's problem. If putting up 37 on Buffalo proves New England can "light teams up", putting up 43 on Jacksonville should prove a similar thing for the Texans.

    Pat's lost to the Card's and Seahawks and needed a ton of luck to beat the Jets/Bills.

    Eh whatever. Only ranking that matters for this team is if they win the last game of the post season.

    jesus dude, b**** much? believe it or not, he's actually heaped tons of praise on the texans this year and even went so far as to say he thought either the texans or broncos could easily beat the patriots on any given day. on top of that, he specifically mentions aj and schaub in this week's mmqb. he may not be the world's greatest sports writer (and i'm actually not a huge fan of his) but he has to cover the entire league, you do realize that, right?

    super defensive homer is super defensive.

    How did the Texans fair against the Bills defense? They held us far below our season average.

    jesus dude, read much? I in no way accused King of being biased against the Texans. He has an excellent relationship with several of our players and coaches/executives and genuinely likes the team. That's not my criticism. I accused him of being lazy, uninspired and uninformed. It's very possible to cover the entire league with depth and without making up facts. Michael Silver does it every Monday for Yahoo.

    super ignorant complainer argues to argue.

    Different scenario because the Texans took the air out of the ball in the fourth quarter to run clock. They weren't in a dogfight where they had to keep throwing and putting up points.
