    Expect Desmond King to be elevated for games from the PS.

    Why is the Packers likely a loss?

    With nico out, how would you all feel about a trade for Hopkins? Bring him home. I think titans would be open to it

    I think the pre-season hype hasn't been adjusted to fit actual production.

    I think we will see if the off season decision to let Noah go was a good one. I understand the choice between Hutchinson's potential and Noah's injury risk was a tough one among those with the Nico body type. The biggest thing I don't know is how well Hutch does with contested catches and retaining possession when called upon.

    I am hopeful more than confident. But that's typical among players with few touches, whether a rookie or lightly used veteran.

    All I hear is 'Any Given Sunday' but when it comes to our own team, "Oh, that's probably a lost." I really don't understand it. We believe it's a higher possibility that a bad team beats us than our own team beating a team that's about equal or lesser than us?

    FYI - I was thinking of the Packers pre-season hype rather than the Texans.

    Yeah yeah I got you but just what I'm seeing. We talk about being a contender but we're marking Ls to a team not expected to make it out of their conference. And this is not because Nico is down. I've seen people have us losing to them before the season started.

    Sadly it’s the Texans fan way of thinking. Fear every team and expect to lose every game no matter how much better the Texans are than the other team.

    How many of those 25 were pre-snap? Not a lot of subjectivity in those.

    Welcome to Houston fandom. We’ve been down this road before, broken again and again. Not just football. How many times did we win a series against the Yankees or something only to get swept by the A’s in the same week. We don’t know any other way haha

    What should i make of the fact that all the good teams are at the bottom of this list and the bad teams are at the top? Good teams try to get away with cheating more or the league/refs are trying to minimize a disparity in skill?
