    We’re saying the same thing then. I’m glad they didn’t lose but I’m disappointed they didn’t try to win.

    Rex Burkhead looks like the feature back for this team after everyone was hyping Pierce. Will be interesting to hear the explanation.

    Not mad at all.. I saw some unexpected things ( a good sized lead) and some expected things( tired defense leads to an inevitable choke, p****y playcalling in the clutch)... Again I'm glad to see good football from the team ..

    Why even say Pierce is RB1?

    BOB Had 1 million all star talents on one team and lost like a jack ass. routinely taking the ball out of his best players hands just because

    Lovie has who? Davis freaking Mills? You want Lovie to be aggressively above average with Davis Mills?? Guys come on.

    I think it's a tough position to be in. 4th and 3
    Meaning they have a better chance at that point in the game to stop you and win the game.

    Mills played actually pretty decent to good overall (240 yards, 2TDs, 99 QBR) in many moments but had a bad 4th qtr stretch … Definitely needed more of Pierce …I was kidding about being ok with a tie. Had 20 seconds left wtf

    They wouldn't have been in that spot if they went with Pierce on 3rd and 1 instead of Burkhead.

    “Aggressive Mediocrity” is the perfect phrase/slogan for the Texans.

    Stupid team is stupid. If it wasn’t for Jerry Hughes 2 plays we’d have lost like 40 - 6. Blew a 20-3 lead and only tied thanks to Indy kicker shanking a 42 yarder.

    The zone defense is a joke. Ryan was picking it apart.

    Mills was really inaccurate. Too many passes too low or high or the wrong shoulder.

    Middle of the D was gashed. Not enough talent at LB and DL.

    Imagine Davis Mills doesn't convert a 4th and 3 and Colts kick a FG to win.. imagine that sh*t. Yall would be so hot.

    They were up 20-3 in the 4th, and lost in a tie ON PURPOSE.

    You can’t seriously be trying to defend this. lol

    I'm the most disappointed over our running game honestly. I thought Pierce would run wild. I'm most disgusted with the play calling, Mills' holding the ball so long, and our defense letting them score 17 pts in the second half.

    I'll take a win over a loss. Hopefully we learn from our mistakes. We showed we can play better the first half. At the end of the day Mills still played better than Trevor Laurence, Justin Fields, and Trey Lance did today. Frank out coached Lovie the second half!

    If you try to win and lose, I can accept that a lot easier than successfully getting a tie.

    No, you don't. You take the tie. If you feel you are going to surprise people, a Tie will help you more than a loss.
