    Someone has a bad definition of "Accurate".

    Not surprising. Cobb was one of the league leaders in drop pass %, even with only like 50 catches

    Or maybe that QB isn't "Accurate"? That video show alot of non-accurate throws.

    Difference between a lot of ordinary/mediocre WRs and great WRs is that great WRs can catch non-accurate passes.

    A lot of those were catchable. QBs are not going to throw perfect passes, sometimes they will be low, behind, or high, just how it is with all that's going on...a guy like Hopkins snatches anything thrown his way...a guy like Cobb doesn't. Which means Watson has to be a lot better with his passes and makes Watson's job harder.

    Well, I’m glad the Texans are relying on Cobb to be the #1 WR then! However, he will be just fine in the slot.

    We’re paying him 28 million...

    I like Cobb, he can add stuff to our offense at the slot (possibly a lot if he stays healthy)...but 28 freaking million

    You are paying $18.75 million guaranteed...basically $9 million a year. Brandon Cooks is the #1, Fuller is #2.

    Cooks, Fuller, or Cobb, neither are really #1s.

    Maybe they can get it done together with the right playcalling and their speed, but I don't think either of these guys are true #1 WRs.

    I hope I'm wrong, I really do, and I have no issue at all owning up to it if I am.

    They don't have to have a "#1" WR. You just have to have production from ALL WRs/TEs/RBs.

    He was never GM before. He knows he can't be all 3.

    The problem has never been the WRs/TEs/RBs. It's been the people coaching them.

    True.

    But they have a washed up RB, have a mediocre Oline, mediocre TEs...so yeah...

    All they have on offense now is Watson.

    Fuller could, IMO be a star WR if he can play an actual full season, but I wouldn't count on that.

    Can't blame people for being pessimistic about this team.

    That' Oline will be one of the best....next season, barring health of course.

    They have more than Watson. Hopkins was not the only weapon on that offense.

    So.... you expect us to believe O'Brien wasn't acting as GM last session?
