Made Bryce Young look decent… Made Zach Wilson look like prime Arod Made Sam Darnold look like Tom Brady… Sheesh, this is embarrassing and truly worrisome…
One week they look like World beaters the next week they get the pants beat off them by some scrub Don't get me wrong things could be a lot worse But this one is a hard pill to swallow
Honestly, I thought our defense was going to come out crushing offenses this year. Today the Vikings had their cake and ate it too, along with a few of our waived defensive players wearing purple today. Embarrassing.
I'm just gonna have the hot take and say I don't think the defense was the issue today. We start off giving them a short field, we then missed a FG giving them another short field, we then had a penalty on the kick giving them starting field position at the 40... Our offense tripped over itself over and over and over again. Yeah sure sure the defense should have played better that is a given in a loss this big and the coverage on Jefferson at the start of the game was stupid but the defense tried to keep the team in the game for as long as they could and eventually the dam breaks. I don't really see that game and go "Man, the vikings really tore us to shreds!" Darnold had what like 160 yards? I see CJ with two INTs, I see penalties aplenty, and I see the Vikings defense really tore us to shreds. Not saying the defense can't be better, it can be, but maybe if the offense didn't put up a full 0 points, didn't have stall out drives by penalties, don't throw two INTs...
I hope the coaching staff face tougher questions this week but don't bet on it with the soft media in town. This effort today shows the Texans still aren't ready in any way and it sucks. Green Bay, although they are beating up on sorry AFC south teams, are taking care of business with back up QB and the Texas if we are being real should be 0-3 even with Stroud. Sick of this organization letting us down year in year out.
Smart OC are picking on Pitre. Dude is a dawg against the run but a liability in coverage. Demeco needs to realize he’s gonna get picked on henceforth.
Hopefully Autry and Harris come back and help. More concerned about an offense with all those weapons basically stuck in the mid for three games.
Too early to overreact. The other teams in the AFC South don't look much better and we're still a lock to win the division and get to the playoffs. We will rebound against the Jags next week.
I don't expect players to have their "A GAME" every time out but you are 100% correct! This is an ongoing problem. Making average QBs look like All-Pros. I'm beginning to wonder if Demeco is another version of Bill O'Brien....a Medicore HC. Demeco is too CONSERVATIVE! Playing conservative will win you games but also lose you games, basically you are AVG
I don't think the division is the problem, the problem is how the Texans play against good teams on the road. They play scared! Too conservative! If the ultimate goal is to win a Super Bowl, you have to play like it! They suppose to be 3-0
It’s been disappointing. I’m sure with Autry and Harris back it will help a lot. But you’re right a lot of players today looked wide open with easy passes to make. the offense confuses me as well. Those small passes to Dalton were getting kinda boring. During the beginning of plays it looks like stroud is looking deep only for the pocket to collapse and he either ran or took a sack or did the Schultz short pass. not sure if it’s the receivers or the o-line
