Even if Lamar is truly out (I won’t believe it till I see it), can’t get cocky. It’s still a tough road environment against a well run organization that’s had our number. I’ve seen too many stupid games against backups like Jacoby Brissett, Zac Wilson, Matt Hasselbeck, and others. Gotta play lock down defense and keep the momentum going on offense, get the young playmakers the ball.
Texans played against Cooper Rush when he was with the Cowboys last season. Rush: 32-55, 354 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT.
Not sure how we arrived on “can’t get cocky” on me just suggesting, “what if we win?” I was voted most optimistic my senior year but I’m not “cocky” about the Texans. But what if they win? That would be fun and we may all be dead the day after, but dont get cocky.
Not sure why everyone is afraid of Derrick Henry. With Christian Harris, Texans have played Derrick Henry very well. He’s had one good game in four outings this year and has 3 fumbles. We are one of the best defenses in the league and probably the best in our team history. They are also without All Pro Ronnie Stanley.
You are correct, except for one game. During his last year in our Division, he only gained 9 and 42 yards in each game against our defense. But Henry did go for 147 yards against us during last year's Christmas game.
Now they’re saying he’s week to week and going to try to play. may be a smoke screen but this is why I said not believing it until it’s Sunday and I actually see it.
At the very least it will limit his ability to run. They know their season is on the brink so they might play him even if he's extremely limited.
I'm wondering if Lamar Jackson is even injured at all. He left the game when they were getting blown out and didn't go to the tent. Then their was criticism for him "quitting" and faking an injury to leave the game. Maybe they're pretending he's hurt to deflect any criticism. If his hamstring is really hurt, their is no way they would entertain him giving it a chance..
If he has a bad hamstring I hope he plays. A hobbled Lamar Jackson standing in the pocket with our defensive line is like shooting hogs in a pen. His whole advantage as a QB is the off-script plays and running the ball.
