Texans Pre-Game Thread
 

Chase Young is back and a chance to get over .500. Big week for us. We have to get this W.

I like our chances.

The Fightin' Chase's: 23
Texans: 16

Re: Texans Pre-Game Thread
 

I don't think Houston scores more than 14, their OL is VERY bad and they have no passing game.

Commanders 24
Texans 13

Man, I really hope we don’t come out flat in a short week after an emotional win. That would be the kind of thing we’d do. Let’s see if this year’s team is different. Last night felt different - the team that fought harder won, and beat the more talented team.

Our D is legit. We basically handed them a td early on. Eagles with less than 100 yards rushing and less than 265 total yards. That’s not easy to do. And we are starting to utilize our weapons - McLaurin and Samuel in particular - better. Liking our run game too.

Have got to keep it going next week.

We got be ready.

It is more probably that the HOU would be us then us beating a 8-0 PHI team at their house on a Monday night. Any given Sunday.

Gonna make some texas brisket for this one.

Love Dameon Pierce, that kid is an animal. I would vote for him for offensive rookie of the year.

It would be a DC thing to do to come off a top 5 win of the Snyder era and follow it up to losing to one of the worst teams in the league.

Hope the boys don't fall into the trap.

Texans are playing hard and are pesky. Not going to be an easy game. They played the Giants tough. Always hard to go on the road during a short week. Very much a let down spot.

The defense played well, but having the ball for over 2/3 of the game was the key to holding them to those yards. That has to be the formula - run, run, run, play action, run some more.

Re: Texans Pre-Game Thread
 

So will it be Carson or Taylor under center on Sunday?

No question TH

I can't imagine it won't be Taylor. 3-1 as a starter and just helped take down the 8-0 Eagles on MNF at home? I expect that there will be a story about it being a short week and the team not being sure that Carson is quite at 100% to soften the blow, however. If TH plays well (admittedly against a weaker opponent), then they can cement him as the starter after next week. If not, then they can go to Carson. But for now, I can see them wanting to kick the can down the road for another week on this decision.

Would you play a rusty coming back from an injury QB or a hot one that makes things happen? There’s your answer

Re: Texans Pre-Game Thread
 

We are officially in the playoffs as of right now?

Wow

Im sure we will end the season with the best record for a non playoff team and secure the 16th or so pick in the draft ... but wow.
