    Crennel came up with a perfect scheme for turnover prone Winston. O'Brien managed one offensive TD.

    Hard to be sold on the Texans. Tampa giving it away like skittles and still can't pull away. They were out-gained by 200 yards, still had to win in the last minute. They're probably going against Buffalo who is physical & plays great defense. I don't know if they'll get out of the first round if they play the Bills. - Strahan

    One and done is who they are. Still, just happy to be there. And this goes back to the Kubiak era. Without the Bengals to beat, they are ready for the off season.

    Might have been talked about, but why didn’t we challenge that fumble on the kick return after the pick 6? It definitely was a fumble, and we stood up with the ball.

    Gotta really hope the Bears doink the Chiefs today.

    Absolutely don't want to play the Bills. That team doesn't let you get away with mistakes.

    Robby Anderson should be Will Fullers replacement

    Winston moved the ball well with nobody at WR.

    the Fuller excuse has got to go.

    Watson has Plenty. He needs to play better and find the open man instead of running out of clean pockets.

    He is special, but he isn’t consistent.

    Sure. Watson isnt consistent, but having an incompetent HC isnt helping him.
    Numero uno rush defense, and u see BoB forcing rush plays over and over. Cant expect greatness from watson if hes always having to overcome his hc deficiency.

    Looks like we might be having a rematch against TEN in the wild card round...

    That would be a replay of last season's nightmare.

    I saw in the paper today that Fuller strained his groin now. It's always something. He hasn't come close to playing any season yet without missing games. It's crazy to think that Jerry Rice played 17 seasons without missing a single game. Chris Carter actually played 9 years straight without missing a game, and had 13 seasons of playing every game. Larry Fitzgerald had 12 years of playing every game.

    All I wanted was for Fuller to be able to play these last 3 games and the playoffs without getting hurt again. It didn't seem like too much to ask for.

    Only if we jump the Chiefs. Right now it is slated to be Buffalo-Houston in the 4/5, Wild Card game (i.e. Texans memorial Saturday afternoon slot). With KC hosting TBD (Pittsburgh/Tennessee/Indy/Oakland(?!)) in the 3/6 game.

    Texans need to beat the Titans and have KC lose at least one game to move up to the 3rd seed.

    If KC loses tonight, kick Tennessee’s ass and hope Baltimore lets Pittsburg win.

    Then you get Pitt at home and then New England.

    Texans can control who they play, but tonight will really determine it.

    I would much rather play Pitt than Buffalo.

    This would be ideal... Just continues to suck the Texans gave away full control of the 3 seed by getting embarrassed by Denver.

    Winston did his best to hand us that game on a silver platter, but that's his style. Thank you Winston. You didn't let me down.

    In the last 2 years Aaron Rodgers has thrown for 49 touchdowns. Winston has 50. That sounds great right? Sure, unless you compare it to Mahomes getting 50 in one season last year.

    Now for turnovers. Rodgers has thrown only 4 interceptions total in the past 2 years. Amazing and unbelievable really. I love Aaron Rogers. That turnover ratio is really hard to beat.

    Winston, on the other hand, can be a fan's worst nightmare. He brings excitement like a rollercoaster with highs and lows, but then that rollercoaster goes flying off the track and fans are screaming in agony. I mean, he had 38 more interceptions than Rodgers these past 2 seasons. Yes, you read that right, a whopping 38 MORE interceptions. This my friends, is why I have crowned him the "Interception King".

    Doesn't matter Brian. AFC South Champs Brian. Don't need nor want the 1 seed Brian. We'll take our Saturday 3:00pm slot Brian. Very familiar with it Brian. We certainly like familiarity around here Brian.

    Texans been in league 17 years. Come on now. The Jets have in the NFL (not including the AFL) 49 years.

    Ask how many teams in the AFC had the #1 seed in the last 17 years? 4?

    Depends on if you think Watson is able to learn from BOB. Fitzy said he learned more from BOB than any other HC he's had in 15 yrs in the league.

    Take it for what it's worth.
