    So, looks like we may have a QB. He looked skittish against the Bengals but very confident against the Pats. He's growing into it. Good to see.

    We saw today what Watson can do with a few more targets to throw to. Fuller and Fiedorowicz will be nice additions when healthy.

    How anyone can judge him based off the Bengals game is beyond me. Kids a stud. He was at Clemson and showed today that he can make throws with the best of them. How FREAKING Impressive was that guy today!

    The frustrating part is NO one in that staff saw it in preseason?

    They saw the man play in college and win big and picked up fast because of his work ethic and skills.

    They wasted all of training camp and preseason on Savage.

    Imagine if he had full came with 1st team and all the prep.

    He won impossible 1st game, almost won impossible 2nd game. Surely no one here things he lose the game. Bob and tired defense lost the game to beat best QB on planet at home on late drive.

    I think a good question is, who thinks the Texans can beat the Titans and Chiefs next week? I don't think the Qb's are good enough to torch us like Brady and we have at worst a middle of the pack offense with Watson at the helm.

    Texans can still win two home games and be winning the division in two weeks.

    Sunny in Houston right now.

    Fuller will be huge for Hopkins and the run game.

    Watson has plenty arm to throw to him as well.

    Props to DW4 for looking like a future super star. Also credit to o line for giving him time to make accurate throws. Can't wait til next Sunday to beat the oilers

    Most passing yds by a Texans rookie before today was 267 Carr vs Browns

    Offense under BoB has been so bad and conservative at moving the ball down the field. DW4 had only the 2nd game that Texans got 300+ yards through the air in 4 years!

    Everybody on the coaching staff saw Bill O'Brien chose to ignore it with his traditional minded rookie sit BS!

    Was that Bobby who said Watson won't through for 300 yards in the NFL?

    Ladies and gentlemen we have us a legit QB who has the potential to be a franchise player.

    I surly hate that Moore choked this game away. Spoiling the spotlight that would have been all over the media.

    While he didn't throw for 364, he threw for 301. He's still got next week though, right?

    Are you thrilled? Will you admit your judgment, as it often is, was premature and that you might have been wrong?



    Alright, another weeks worth of data points, and you have been awfully quiet.

    As I asked again, were the fanboys right? Are you ready to admit you were wrong?

    This is something I've never seen you do (admit you were wrong), despite the numerous times it's happened.


    I'll grab my popcorn....


    The only thing that could have made this sweeter was if the secondary had played better and we'd have won the game...

    Deshaun is going to earn RG3 level press after this game. He makes us a dark horse late in the year. Have to figure out the secondary though.
