Same thing I said in the Chargers game thread. Get a couple of big takeaways (win the turnover battle) and we need more of "playoff Stroud" that we saw after the 3rd and long botched snap.
[Rapoport] With the release of WR Diontae Johnson yesterday, the Texans have now promoted WR Jared Wayne to the 53-man roster.
Week 16 Match up issues that still stand out: Defense only putting 4 pressures on Mahomes. Their Defense, 15 on Stroud. Have to cut that in half. Can't afford for Stroud to look like Herbert lol Stroud's completed passes traveled 145 yards in the air compared to 75 yards for Mahomes, however Mahomes' recipients added 185 extra yards after the catch.=/ NFL showing some love: So how about calling the flagorant pick plays on the Chiefs. I don't mind the Hopkins Offensive P.I trickery. He was doing that here.
"IF, and this is a BIG IF, but if the D plays like it did last week and the Offense can bring it like in the second half of the Chargers game the Texans can do this. I just want to see a solid 60 minutes from all 3 phases...............we have to be consistent and IMO we need one take away and put 7 on the board because of it.
