LOL I knew that it wouldn't be long before we'd see "Texans fans" whining about winning a playoff game that the QB played well. That group of "fans" never ceases to amaze.
The fact that there are so many good running backs is why Conner can be had that late. I would love for him to be a Texan. Great kid. Great story. He's going to be a great player too.
The run game sucked. Brock played maybe his best game and still didn't post good stats. Better than losing though. I just hope we're competitive next week. Don't embarrass the city.
He actually did have pretty good stats. He had 146 passing yards at halftime and it's not his fault that they didn't really pass much in the 2nd half. When the team needed to move the ball, he put the ball where it needed to be including really nice down the field passing to Nuk. I know that some would rather die than give credit where it's due, but his play was almost identical to Russell Wilson's first playoff game.....only Osweiler had a rushing TD too.
Whatever his stats looked like, the hot read slant to Hopkins for the TD, the laser pass to Fuller as his second or third read, the TD run, and a few others showed that he CAN do it. He has the ability. Can he come alive in the playoffs? O'Brien is going to have to coach him up, but sitting him that game and a half may have done a lot for him. If he can keep it up, and the defense can play with the same intensity, we should be competitive against anyone. As long as you can stay close, you have a shot.
His rushing TD does help.. but barely over 50% completion? Considering OAK's defense is bad, I'll give Brock a "6.5" on a 10-scale.
I find it funny that some Raider fans still think Mack is better than Clowney. I guess it'll be one more year before they figure it out.
In this game Clowney is the superior player. Comparing careers Mack's production blows Clowney out of the water. That is cheap rookie contract production.
Mack is basically the equivalent of what Mercilus was today. If he was on the Texans defense, he'd be the 3rd best player in the front 7.

Well, well, well........ Nice win by the Texans. The defense (not just Clowney) are on a nice roll that could lead somewhere. While the offense was conservative they could have justifiably been even more so and still won. Nice to see Brock make some good plays and few bad ones.
