Question on tickets. Have been in a few years and was gifted a few tickets. When I go to the Texans app I see my tickets but don't see a bar code. Is that normal? Does the bar code get generated closer to the game?

---

It is likely the type of ticket where you hold your phone up to the reader and use the NFC chip instead of a barcode.

Ahhhhh, ok never heard of that before: thanks!

Should have an image that looks something like the bottom ingage here.

For some reason I can't get image to load from mobile

Yea, I think I screwed that up. Here is the link, it is about halfway down the page under "In App Tag Reading"

I agree with your overall record, and I fully agree with the L against the Colts in week 1, that game has trouble all over it with the unpredictability of Richardson.

The Colts haven't won an opening day game in 10 years. Texans aren't about to let that streak end with them.

Sucks we get them Week 1. If we played them in a month, solid chance we wouldn't be facing Richardson.

Even crazier stat.

Anthony Richardson logging 17 starts since high school is one of the more jarring stats I've heard in a while.

It is crazy, and when you look at it, if you don't count the bowl game, 2022 is the only time he started every game in a season since high school

I hate to start counting losses, but since KC is a mortal lock to win the always awful AFC West, it was nice seeing Baltimore take an early loss last night.

That was a fun game to watch though, but man the Chiefs always get the breaks

I've seen other people say that, but it sort of feels like saying "Tiger Woods gets all the lucky bounces". You don't win 3 Super Bowls in 6 years on luck. Baltimore was lucky to even be in that game. Why can't they ever run the ball 60 times on the Chiefs and keep Mahomes off the field? Their play calling baffles me.

---

It was odd to see them feed Henry the first drive and then basically stop...but I don't know that they were lucky to be in that, I thought they played well.

The "breaks" comment is that it seems the 50/50 things bounce the Chiefs way more (Illegal formations all of a sudden being a big deal for Baltimore, but the false starting RT for the Chiefs wasn't) but when you're that good I'm sure it always looks that way to a non-fan

10-7 but still division champs. I'm still jaded because at the end of the day, it's Texans football and they have a history of breaking my heart.

God, i hope they don't lose to the Titans at home...

I really don't understand why teams abandon the run, especially against such a lethal offense. I looked up stats, they averaged 5.8 yards per carry, which I realize is a lot of Lamar, but still, there is nothing more satisfying for me in football than to watch a team keep getting 4-5 yards on the ground and keep the other team's defense out there, even if you don't score, the clock is constantly running.

When you limit the other team's possessions, it's just logic that they are going to press more on offense and the likelihood of a miscue increases.

Yeah that first drive for BAL looked as close to unstoppable as anything.

Collingsworth even made it a point to talk about how hard it was to defend Henry and Lamar coming out of the backfield and the defense having to choose one.

I don't think we saw it again after that first drive.

I assume it was a case where the first 15 plays are scripted but once that runs out it's just whatever. Which is exactly what happened.

Richardson will probably throw for 150 run for 100 then get hurt and be out until week 7 all before the 4th quarter

Wow! Cj will Command 70 a year if this keeps up

A deadline deal: Hours before Dallas kicked off its season, it reached agreement with QB Dak Prescott on a four-year contract, $240 million extension that will make him the highest-paid player in NFL history and keep him in a Cowboys uniform for seasons to come, per sources.

Pretty exciting knowing the Cowboys will fail to make the Super Bowl for another 4 years at least.

Hopefully CJ will take the Mahomes track of signing for a lot of money but doesn't max everything out and still gives his team some room to sign other critical players. Prescott and Lamb combining to take up almost 95 million on the salary cap is crazy, and will pretty much doom the cowboys back down to fighting for a playoff spot.

I just don't understand the fascination of Pierce with Demeco and Nick…he was awful in preseason and awful last year.

I predict the cowboys just paid 120 mil/playoff win

Alright boys, let's have a fun season! Super Bowl in the crosshairs!

Thank you for the field position Colts.
