    Very safe game so far from the Texans offense. Need a td to start the half

    While good to think this way, I think we’re a better team and should be shutting them out.

    Good half. Plenty of things to highlight and it feels like we’re about to bust out offensively. Defense is playing hard just need to stop jumping.

    Kinda funky 1st half but yet they lead. We gotta find the endzone in the 2nd half.

    Ugly game only because the Texans have wanted it that way. Those 2 yard wide receiver rushing attempts have been drive killers. No coincidence Coleridge got in rhythm on that last drive.

    Yeah I mean we are at best an average team, a competent team, which is a huge step up from what we were.

    Atlanta seems like a different team at home.
    2-0 vs 0-2 on the road.
    vs basically a top 5 pass defense cj's done well for a rookie. couple of receivers dropped first down balls.

    Good practice for 2 min drive and a score.

    I'm not going to brag about it but the concern with ANY QB that relies on his legs that much just has more of a chance to get hurt.

    I don't think its bad luck I think its just that every time there is a collision there is more of a chance of injury, its why RBs don't last so long.

    That’s why I always prefer a “pocket QB”

    If this offense can ever get the running game going watch out.

    One thing I like is that CJ isn’t forcing things. When the offense is getting stopped, people tend to overlook that aspect. But that’s incredible that a rookie isn’t panicking and forcing throws trying to make that big play. Just take what the defense gives you. It’s on Slowik to scheme up some stuff now.

    He's also been failed by some unfortunate drops, miscommunication with the WR's, and the O line failing drives at the worst possible moments.

    I expect the offense to come alive in the 2nd half.

    It’s usually roids. Guys who aren’t naturally bulky and then bulk up on roids tend to get injured a lot.
