Its actually vice-versa.... the running game softens up the D for the play-action. When the Texans needed a big run, they were still able to get it. Offense was a little out of sync, but that will improve with more game reps with this O-line as a unit. Big positives are AJ80 and Schaub looking damn good.
Yeah I'm sure a big helping of steak and eggs this morning would giving him the ability to run for 100+ yards today. That's all he needs, steak and eggs....oh and ah, bacon.
Defense played well overall. Watt was a beast. Still concerned about the rush defense. They were carving us up until the turnovers and the points off turnovers. After that, they were forced to throw it more. I hope our defense doesn't turn out like Indy's where we're only effective when we're playing with a lead and forcing them to be one dimensional. OLine and running game a concern. Special teams a concern. We put up 30 points but our offense never had that long TD drive. Our long scoring drives resulted in field goals.
Minnesota takes lead over Jacksonville in OT with a FG. Jags have to score on this drive or it's over.
special team gave the offensive horrible, horrible position to start with need to fix it by next week
The defense was keying on the run from the start. They were penetrating on just about every run play.
hate to be the bearer of bad news but we will not win the superbowl so long as kubiak is calling the plays. it's a damn shame because this team is loaded.
Foster had a good game, the problem is we are used to him having great games. He will do better next game.
Those are signs of a great team. When every eligible receiver is dropping easy catches, when the opposing defense is sniffing the run, along comes megawatt and the defense to change the momentum. Also, with a name like incognito I would quit the dolphins and tryout for the X-men. I thought Mister was pretty cool.
