Titans are the only team that can beat anyone they line up against, and also lose to any team they line up against. Their defense is trash and only somewhat masked by a very strong run game on offense.

Glad the Texans got focused and realized they need to lose.

I know right. Big fish in the little pond.

Honestly if the Texans signed Newton they might have a chance to win the division. But we all know it's about tanking for, *checks list*, Spencer Rattler though?

I hope not, I'm just not sold on Rattler as a no 1 overall pick. I don't think there's anyone in this draft class that looks like it. I'd prefer Derek Stingley, Kayvon Thibodaux, or even Evan Neal. This team looks fun with an experienced QB like Taylor. If we have a top 3 pick, which is likely, this is a good draft to move down and try to accumulate assets if there's another team that wants a QB that bad.

I've seen Malik Willis, the QB from Liberty, get a lot of buzz lately. I guess he's like a Trey Lance type prospect, Something about drafting an FBS QB that high doesn't sit well with me though.

At this point (which is way too early), I'd guess that we will not take a QB in the 1st round.

Tyrod is a serviceable QB, but they need someone dynamic.

Go ahead and trade Watson - and get at least 2 first round picks.

Tank this year - trade down to get more picks, and get a QB mid 1st round.

They need a ton of players.
I know a lot about a little, and a little about a lot.

Trading down is a lot easier said than done imo. Feel like we tried at the year we got clowney and nobody wanted the pick . But if there are takers then for sure trade down

I think that it is easier to trade out of the 2-10 picks than it is the #1 overall. Not sure where we will end up but a QB isn't the answer as of now looking at the available options

Agree 100%. You need a pick where there is some ambiguity as to who will take who. The Jags tried to create mystery with Trevor Lawrence and it fooled no one.

If I'm the Texans, I would add OL and DL depth. Thibodeax, Kenyon Green, Leal, etc. Bama OL scare me because they don't always pan out.

The reason people trade up is generally to get a QB. If you don't think there's a franchise QB in this draft, chances are, others feel the same way. Makes it tough to trade down.

I also watched some of the Georgia/Arkansas game. Georgia has a DT that might not fit in a one-car garage, I want that guy too.

it's nice to be in the same division as the Jags...

they do things (Urban) to knock your team's (Texans) problems to the back page

Has there been a bunch of drama surrounding that girl? I need to look. I love watching bad things happen to bad people.

Eh. Married dude who is a known liar busted for acting inappropriately with another woman after using family as a shield. No sympathy.

At work we have to pick 6 winners each week. For underdogs it's worth quite a bit more if they win obviously. Houston is +17 this week. It's absurd to pick them, right?

Spencer Rattler might have lost his starting spot today. If that ends up being the case, he might transfer and stay another year. Either way, he won't be a top pick if he spends the rest of the year as the backup.

This felt so damn good and this was one big reason. The bubble screens weren't enough!

BOB will tell you they lost because he didn't have enough control over personnel.

Texans put together a 10 minute TD drive.

Then, Fairbairn missed the XP and kicks the kickoff out of bounds.

We just can't have nice things.....

Fumble. We are going to get screwed though since there isn't a down the line shot.

Plot twist: Fairbairn is a saboteur, whose job it is to make sure the Patriots are still able to win, thus making the Texans look good but still preserving their chances at the #1 pick.

Don't understand why Pats didn't take a timeout.
