    He’s making nearly $19m next year since he’s an OT. Got to start trimming some salary to pay for Sting, etc.

    Fisher takes over at RT, sign a FA G cheaper than $19m, open competition at the other spot between Green, Scruggs, and another draftee.

    Did the Texans waive Diontae Johnson? I would love to know the real story on that one.

    Just destroy Kelce and we have a chance. Kelce will be a nightmare for us.

    I hate to say this but the Texans have never been lucky with QB injuries (unless you count that one time we faced the Raiders in the Playoffs without Carr). Perhaps something random happens that takes Mahomes out of the game on the first drive etc. One of these days you'd think we fluke our way to the AFC Title game.

    Listen we were neck & neck with the Chiefs almost a month ago. That Tank Dell injury pretty much destroyed the Texans mentally. We never recovered from that.

    We can most definitely take out the Chiefs

    My bet is who the refs got their money on. NFL is so easy to fixed as they can literally get a call for any play. It's a safe bet to bet big on the Chiefs though since, everyone and their mother expect them to win so it wont be as questionable.

    Just heard that on 610......WTF, was he a Cancer in the locker room, we need depth, and he can separate, this makes no sense unless he was a headache

    He supposedly caused a scene in the locker-room. This is disappointing because he was getting open a ton in the Titans and this last Chargers game but the ball wasn't going his way. He's way better than Metchie and Hutchinson who both suck at getting separation and holding onto the ball. We never saw what he could really do. Can the Chiefs pick him up now to scout us?

    You can't have someone around who is only out for themselves. A player who throws a tantrum after a playoff win who is upset that they didn't get the ball enough is a guy you cut in an instant.

    The chiefs have to be the least dominant 15-win team in NFL history. They always do just enough to win and not much more. That's a compliment, not an insult.

    Getting an early lead would be great, but man....they are so smart and so well-coached...even if you jump on them early, they won't get worried. They've been there. They know they're never out of it.

    Our best bet is to catch them being complacent. Try to be in the game in the 4th quarter and who knows what can happen.

    Yahoo sports votes us the least likely playoff team to advance. I have been super critical of the Texans all season. I predict that they will upset the Chiefs if they play at least as well as they did against the Chargers.

    Cade Stover is on IR now. He had some nice catches last game. That blows.

    If catching them complacent is the Texans best chance, they have no chance. I have no doubt the Chiefs will come out focused and play with purpose from the very beginning. Besides the fact they are a mature team that does not take things for granted, Andy Reid is an old-school coach and he'll be cracking on them all week.

    I'm hoping they might have some rust at the start the Texans could take advantage of. Plus I expect the defense to cause a couple of TOs.

    Tytus has been rock solid as a tackle. He slid inside to help the team and is playing out of position. The line would be better suited to find a veteran center.

    FWIW Blake Fisher was the lowest graded player on the offense vs LAC with a 33 --- I do believe he will get better, but he cant sniff Tytus' jock strap right now and especially not enough to just assume he will do better as a starter when nothing on film has shown to be even remotely close. Fisher is a depth player.

    I hope this is Mahomes Saturday evening after his lucky home streak ends this season.
