    Opposing defense are so bad that they let us score 8 points on them? Shame.

    Things Mills fails to do every week

    Run for 1st down
    Hit the RB out backfield
    Make short throws
    Secondary Reads

    Dude is worse than the current dating pool in Houston

    You guys act like we signed this guy for 40 million a year with this criticism. Blame Watson for shoving a rookie 3rd string with less than 20 games experience into a starting position. F**k Watson the creeper.

    What I can say positive about Mills.... well first he isn't a sexual predator as far as I know and that puts him above a former QB for the Texans.... and in 5 years he won't be associated with the Texans anymore and that will be a real plus for him.

    Hopefully he saves his money. Maybe he can open a bodega in Queens.

    A food truck that serves roadkill seems appropriate.

    I feel sorry for any rookie on a team like this with so called fans who do nothing but bash him with insults. You'd think this was a forum for division rivals by looking at these comments.

    He was really really really good in that first half against NE.

    Back up qb to qb coach to OC might be his best case football future.

    So, I said let's give Mills five or six games. We have the answer.


    In 6 quarters, Tyrod's team scored 51 points.

    In 25+ quarters, Mills's team scored 46 points.

    Tyrod's offense had 752 yards (I didn't separate Mills's two quarters in the second game here like I did with points.). Mills has had 1253 yards.

    So Mills scored 5 less points and has only 501 more yards than Tyrod, despite playing 19 more quarters.


    Tyrod Taylor is a good backup quarterback in the NFL who has lost his job multiple times to rookies, mind you.

    Edit:Maybe I'll edit the numbers after the game to include the garbage time yards to make Mills look better. These stats don't include Burkhead's TD. The Texans first touchdown in 200 minutes of game time.

    Edit2: hooray for garbage time points!

    While I agree with this, Tyrod played the Jags. What team has Mills played that isn’t great?

    Nah, I'm gonna blame the dogshit organization that took this dude with a 3rd round pick. There are plenty of 3rd Rounders in the league earning $40M contracts. Davis Mills isn't good enough to even finish out his rookie contract. Watson is a colossal POS for putting the team in this position, but the FO rightfully deserves all the smoke for having dollar store talent evaluation.

    The pass to Cooks and the pass to Conley after escaping the DB blitz weren’t good enough flashes?
    The run for 2 pts?
