At the game so not 100% sure. But looked like 3 OL didn't touch a single defender

Bright side. I'll get to relax and enjoy watching other games the rest of the season.

The Aggies are the Texans and the Texans are the Aggies

Both have the pieces to field great defenses but have ample shortcomings on offense ranging from inexperienced incompetent playcallers, inconsistent to awful QB play, and OL issues.

The similarities are eery.

Yep; looks like I'll fire up RedZone again.

The Texans have multiple elite/All-Pro players on defense. The Aggies have a bunch of jags on defense that only other Aggies think are good. They don't have a single player on defense that will be drafted in the top 2-3 rounds.

There are no similarities when it comes to these defenses.

Offenses either (outside of o line and run game). Texans had zero good receivers today, but QB played pretty good. Aggies have lots of weapons even though injury bug, but QB played awful.

Not really

It's just you are showing your BAS on both teams.

Well, I missed the game and taped it but don't think I'll watch it now.

What a ****ty football weekend

Yeah, that's the worst take ever. Marcel would be in a wheelchair after a half of NFL football. Stroud has issues, but he has nothing to work with on offense.

Just sayin

this pertains to the 0-2 Texans as well.

similar to last week...

the worst thing is falling behind in potential playoff seeding and tiebreakers

today was another AFC loss to a likely playoff contender

Not when you are complaining about the Aggies on a Texans thread.

This is going to be a long year and we will likely be talking QB options in the offseason. Frustrating, but I don't see how things will get better with no OL and a bunch of JAGs at receiver.

It's so much bigger than just QB. CJ is flawed, but he was asked to throw 55 times today with a bunch of nobodies at WR. He outrushed our RBs.

I don't understand how we yet again are unable to put a competent OL on the field. The Demeco and Caserio senior bowl specials aren't working for this offense.

Anyone who watched today and blames CJ is absurd

I agree, but he's not worth the money. Better off finding a vet that needs a new situation or a rookie to have a cheap salary cap hit. He just doesn't make those around him elevate.

can't believe the Texans offered him a second contract

can't believe he turned it down

If I'm blaming any one individual player, I'm going with Reed Blankenship, because for the second week in a row watching him play is like watching a make a wish kid that nobody had the heart to say no to. Are we sure the eagles are sending the right guy over when we make these deals?

The problem yesterday is that outside of Allen or Lamar Jackson no QB was going to do better than CJ did. It's the first time in a couple of years where their offense was just that bad, not the QB. We have CJ nothing to work with, outside of maybe using the TE, that we would never commit to. Said it after the game started, with the lack of WRs we should have stayed in 21 personnel most of the entire game. Instead we went 3 and sometimes 4 wide consistently which netted us nothing. Meanwhile almost every chunk play we had was to a TE. Why the **** do we have 4 on the roster if that's not going to be our primary personnel package?

Maybe Burrow. Multiple 3rd and longs where we got pressure, he evaded it, and found a receiver open for 15+ yards.

Saw a tweet that Caley ran 11 personnel yesterday 87% of the time, which was the most he's ever done. Which makes absolutely no sense considering who we were running out at WR. And then there's how he approached Lawrence. Someone else made the point that Buffalo didn't just expect their tackles to take on WAJr and DH. They schemed around them because they are elite players who will beat you if you don't. Expecting this line to just line up and beat Lawrence at the point of attack was d-u-m dumb.

I take back my compliments of Caley last week.

Not to mention the GM spent a 2nd on another TE this past draft and we've got how many? 5 rostered?

Let the season play out. CJ leaving might be mutual for both sides.

He also has much better receivers who are able to get open downfield

Yeah, I'm about done with the Xavier Hutchinson experiment.

I wonder what Arizona wants in a trade for MHJ. Not saying I'd do it, but if Nico is going to be out for an extended period yesterday showed that none of our receivers are good enough w/o Nico on the field.
Ag_07
How long do you want to ignore this user?
What exactly does Hutchinson do well?

He's not particularly fast
He's not physical
He doesn't return kicks
He sure as shlt doesn't catch the ball

Just can't find what his redeeming qualities are that get him the multiple chances he's had.
oh no
How long do you want to ignore this user?
maybe Tank and Nico return within a few weeks... and Tank is something resembling what he appeared to be turning into before the injury..

anyway, good news is we're tied for second place with the Titans and Colts and we're all only one game back from the Jags!!

MHJ is actually a great idea. You've got to think Arizona is done with him and maybe he needs a change of scenery back with his old college QB. He's definitely got the talent…just seems like a head case right now. Maybe spent too much time with Kyler throwing him the ball. I wouldn't think it'd cost much more than a 3rd or 4th rounder.
