    Yeah, he didn't play well against good competition. There is a reason draft experts have come out and said ignore this year due to lack of weapons etc. You don't hear those excuses for Young who had the same issue. Weird.

    Fyi, Levis played against Tennessee this year. Kentucky put up 6 points. Bryce Young played them as well and put up 49 and it would have been more if not for some late drops.

    Come on. This isn't hard.

    I must admit watching these cold weather games have me a little worried about Bryce…we already know he’s on the smaller size for a QB and also he’s from California.

    I thought Pat Mahomes was the Steph Curry of the NFL?

    This has nothing to do with the one cold game the Texans play maybe every other year.

    Houston is literally probably the team in the league that plays the warmest schedule, besides maybe Tampa Bay. But even they play outside.

    If Young playing in Houston worried you, he shouldn't be playing in the league, and we all know he should; therefore; this is nothing to worry about.

    Young may be gone by the time the Texans pick.

    Yes, people need to wake up. It’s not easy to get the number 1 pick, especially not 2 years in a row.

    I think the Bears will get the number one pick. If we beat the Colts, which there's a real chance, then the Bears will have the number one pick.


    Today's win sucks.


    The Bears will trade number one for a king's ransom and some team will get Bryce besides the Texans. Would be classic.

    The jags have a shot at the division. They definitely will win next week.

    Meh this week's Titans would have lost to the Colts. Remember, they went up 33-0 against the Vikings last week even though they choked. the Texans would never be able to go up 33-0 on any team much less a division leader.

    I think next week's game is meaningless for the Jags, it will be a play in game vs TEN in week 18 no matter what happens next week.

    So they may rest players and texans might screw themselves and win

    YES.. Williams/Maye look good, but just picking other positions and planning on picking them next year is not guaranteed… like, at all..

    The question really isn’t who is available next year. It is who is available this year. If the Texans believe there is a franchise QB this year they will take him no. 1, if not they won’t. I don’t think there is so if I am GM, I’m either taking Anderson or Carter or trading down.

    I'm not really sold on any of the top QB in this draft but I still think this is the year the Texans should draft a QB in the 1st round and then draft another one that needs time to develop with a later pick.

    I believe that Young's stock will slip during the predraft process and Anderson's will rise. I could see a scenario where Caserio bets on Anderson and Richardson/Levis with his 2 firsts.

    I think Young's stock is going to collapse. Once we get closer to the draft, then it become a lot more real. We need players who can develop into stars -- and we absolutely can't miss.

    How is it going to collapse? His production is going to change. People already know his size, basically. Smart scouts look at the tape. Anyone can be a workout warrior with no pads. That is how teams get in trouble.

    I can see him choosing to not enter the draft if Houston retains #1.

    He would have to be a moron of the highest order to pass up that kind of payday and risk injury. If you're a QB that's worthy of the #1 overall pick, you're pretty much guaranteed to be going to a shitshow for the first 2-3 seasons of your career.
