    We have a lot of talent. Clowney will start to produce.

    Titans 2-1
    Jaguars 2-1
    Colts 1-2
    Texans 0-3

    Lets do it.

    Clowney has been fine, the team has a ton of overall talent, they just don't have any coaching at all so the season is over....it was over before it began. It ended when the team opted to fire Rick Smith and not Bill O'Brien.

    We have the schedule to do the statistically unlikely, for sure. This team's just gotta get it's collective head out of it's ass.

    That starts with the coach and trickles down to the players. According to my own calculations, we're being outscored 55-16 in the first half. That coupled with extremely moronic concentration penalties and ridiculous turnovers, and it's no wonder we haven't won a game.

    No bro... the season is over. There is zero pressure on them and there isn’t a winning culture.

    I’m just glad the Texans made me enough money to get season tickets to the Rockets for another fan that has been a Rockets fan for 45 years but has never been to a game.

    I’m was thrilled to see the way Watt played. Didn’t think he had another multi sack game left in him. Clowney and mercilus have been m.i.a.

    They had a 17-14 lead for 3 minutes and 42 seconds in the Titans game (Titans FG next drive), and a 3-0 lead for 6 minutes today (Giants score TD next drive). Only 2 times they've had a lead so far this season.

    definitely not over but can we get some creativity on offense? The Texans have good to great skill position players yet the offense is just garbage for most of the game. Other teams with lesser talent have fared better so why can't the Texans? Frustrating to watch the same old spiel over and over again. Hope the offense figures stuff out because the Texans have a pretty bad history - if the offense is good, the defense sucks and if the offense sucks the defense is good. Rarely do both perform at the same level they are supposed to.

    Teams that start 0-3 make the playoffs approximately 2% of the time.

    I find these kind of stats meaningless. But having watched the Texans the last 3 weeks, 2% is probably generous. What a **** show. I wonder which quarter O’Brien gives away next week.

    I keep hearing people say we have a lot of talent. Every year there’s a lot of talent but “something” always goes wrong so as to how our immense talent results in sub-par seasons.

    At some point, you gotta think there’s something else, right? Because the freaking Jaguars with Blake Bortles have gone further than the Entirety of the Texans history. You’d think the Texans could at least fluke their way into an AFC championship game one of these years given how much talent we always have year in and year out.

    Hopefully the season, then subsequently, O'Brien are over.

    Even if the season 180's, O'Brien will always limit what we could/should be.

    Bill O'Brien needs to take his own advice and actually apply it to the games in real life. He just doesn't have enough "gamer" in himself for me.

    Good news: Ed Oliver could be a Texan

    Bad news: we are possibly the worst ran team in football.

    End Result. Shoot yourself in the balls and better chance you become a top paid pornstar over the Texans making noise this year.

    I like the op's optimism and that spirit but this team is the most undisciplined team I've seen on the field since that 2008 team, remember Brown's rookie year when he was rotating at the LT on run plays. I did like that we threw more passes today to the TEs and RBs than the previous 2 games combined.

    I’m by no means a BOB supporter but a lot of the issues that eventually led to our previous 2 losses can be placed on:

    1.Bad decision making on Watson’s part (red zone interceptions, holding the ball too long, etc).

    2. Momentum killing and unforgivably dumb penalties on players like Davenport today and untimely TOs (Lamar Miller fumble, Watson INTs).

    Now, like I said, I’m not providing excuses for BoB (play your damn starters more in the preseason so they’re not out there getting into game shape in actual games!) but I am still semi optimistic that we can come back from 0-3.

    But hey, I’ve always been a glass half full kinda guy so I’m sure plenty of y’all will disagree ‍♂️.

    Season will b over soon, at this rate Watson will be in a casket with this oline protection. You figured the front office would do a better job getting an oline, yet it somehow look even worse than last years. BOB probably banking on Watson getting injured so he can prolong his career as our HC.
