    Also, no matter what Osweiler does, he won't be more overpaid than guys like Mark Sanchez or JaMarcus Russell.....so sorry sad sacks that narrative is DOA.

    Today is time to find out if the Texans defense is as good as the Alabama defense was last season. If it is, the Texans should have this one in the bag.

    All Houston teams thrive in underdog scenarios. Maybe I just watched the Clutch City documentary on NBAtv and am reaching absurd conclusions. But the Brissett game was just one of many such examples for the Texans. I think we will surprise people this playoff run. The media is sleeping on our defense. The lack of respeck on our name is real. Then again, maybe Brock remains Brock. Or maybe Brock becomes Broadway Brock. Regardless, it's a little insulting that not one media commentator gives our defense props, much less mentions them. Yet the Giants D gets non-stop praise. I think, and hope, our D takes it personally.

    Joe Namath: 15/17 td/int; 72.1 QBR, SB Championship
    Glock Bossweiler: 15/17 td/int, 72.2 QBR, ??????????

    not sure how this matters but yeah true. Russell has to be the biggest bust of all time in any sport. Dude just ate himself out the league.

    I was just killing sad sack narratives as they pop up. I know it's doesn't really matter.

    I am ready to activate the Omega 13, which reverses time far enough for us to redeem one Brock Osweiler mistake. It's all good people.

    Because it changes the game from Savage potentially executing a cleaner and broader version of our offense, to Brock's limited and much more dangerous ways.

    All that said, I think we WILL be able to run the ball....Miller comes back and plays well.

    But, It's our defense......

    I say they score at least as much as Oakland today....Just, can't see the Raiders getting into the endzone more than once.....quite possibly not at all...and feel pretty certain we're going to win the the turnover battle in a big way.

    Seriously? JaMunchies made over $36M during his so-called "career". I'm sorry but just how is this fact supposed to change the narrative that Osweiler is just as much a disaster at QB as are those two doorknobs?

    Both of those other QBs were drafted, so they automatically got more than 2 years.... usually 4-5.

    Brock will be gone if he doesn't turn it around. They should already be looking for their next QB now. That's the only advantage of signing a free agent... you can typically cut them faster.

    That's an old tweet, but Wendell Williams is inactive, and I think he would have been the fourth. Sucks because I thought he was a sparkplug of sorts against Tennessee.

    I'd like to see him return a punt or two.

    I'm starting to get extremely nervous for the game. Can't imagine how the players feel.

    Texans win this easily. Cook can't play and no team gets more home cooking from the zebras than does Houston. Houston 29-9.
