Miyagi-Do Karate

they haven’t run a successful RB screen since Chan gailey was the head coach.

This just cements to me the stupidity of the game plan. Why are we trying to run long developing routes and looking for big passing plays AGAINST THIS DEFENSE? I would have trotted out there 13 personnel, and run heavy set runs, quick dump offs, etc. The only way the Texans beat us is through their defense and special teams/field position. We let them do it by producing so many negative plays on offense.

This. The failure has been on offense. In the Miami and Atlanta games, I would argue it was mostly on Josh. In the Houston game, I have no idea who is to blame. The play calling, line, receivers, QB? It was all off.

how about tim settle? Dude is a beast for them, but was a total zero while here. What gives?

that’s what kills me. Every other game is a total slop fest, filled with mistakes and turnovers and endless penalties.

reminded me of Kelly against KC in 1993 regular season. I think it was a 33-6 loss, and he was blown up all night.

I was just thinking this after the game tonight. i used to enjoy those drought era games more. Maybe it’s worse to have high expectations that are dashed.

Dion.

I think he had like 10 guys bearing down on him when he was throwing that.

haha. True. How about we don’t commit a penalty on every ST play for once?

sure, if we pinned the Texans back with bad field position every time, instead of them doing that to us. Davis Mills isn’t driving 90 yards down the field multiple times.

“letting Josh be Josh” against the number 1 D with Shavers as his best receiver = 8 sacks.

Had some debates earlier this week about this, but I continue to believe that when you play a team like the Texans, you just have to be conservative. Runs, quick passes. Play field position. Make FGs. Take points when you can get them. no sacks or turnovers. We play a clean game, and that is probably a 16-10 type win.

They just have to get this first down. Can’t be taking a negative play here. Get 4 more downs at least.

Go win this, MVP!!
