Re: Homecoming / Houston Thread

I'll be the first to admit on here. I wrote Anderson off all off season.

I'll happily eat that crow

Yes! I've been critical of this dude but he seems to be improving every game.

Re: Homecoming / Houston Thread

I was about to say this is the game I'm the least confident we can win of our remaining ones.

Then I looked at the Texans' schedule ... and they've sure been on a hot streak, but it's not like they've beaten great teams either (L@NE, L@TEN, LvsNYG, W@IND, WvsDAL, WvsBUF,W@JAX, WvsMIA, W@DEN).

If our D plays up to it's potential, I could see a close game that could go either way. But I really wouldn't lose sweat over an L this week, because I don't see a game we couldn't win after that.

Oh, and get ready, no matter who covers him, DeAndre Hopkins is going to make some nice catches, no need to roast anybody for that, he's uncoverable. I would double him all game, we can afford that with Fuller out.

My Kool Aid/Manusky has a plan for Hopkins prediction: Skins 17 Texans 14

But I really wouldn't lose my mind over a loss.

This is a toss up game, but I believe the home crowd will be loud now and hopefully the team feeds off of that. If we win this game and go to 7-3, the rest of the schedule is great for us. I could see an 11-5 finish

Re: Homecoming / Houston Thread

Houston on a roll...but check out who they have played and beat last 5:

Dallas 19-16 in OT
Buffalo 20-13
At Jacksonville 20-7
Miami 42-23
At Denver 19-17

Pretty easy schedule.

Their Oline is weak, Watson will throw some picks. Their run game is limited, but they have some good WRs.

Their rush defense is good. Avg pass defense

Should be a close game...Skins 23-Houston 19

Should be able rush Watson...need a big day from the pass rush and limit time to throw to these receivers.

It's a pretty even matchup, i'm actually excited for this game. I won't be mad if we lose, only if we get beat like the ATL and NO games. I just dont see that happening, Houston cant score like that.

Way is having an all-pro season in my opinion

People talk about turnovers and the defense as to why we're winning, it's also special teams. Hopkins is 17/19 on the year on FGs and hasn't missed a PAT, and Way is pinning teams deep and hasn't even had a touchback yet.

Speaking of Hopkins though...

Hopkins “banged up”, Redskins working out kickers

Houston has won 6 in a row.

All that tells me is they're due for a loss

Re: Homecoming / Houston Thread

CT and Trent pretty much are always hurt. We can win games w/out them. What is the status w/ Marshall? I swear if given the chance that kid is just as good as a lot of RB's out of the backfield. I hope they activate him at some point.
