Weird Houston Texan Stat

Have no idea what this means but Houston held Josh to 9 for 30 and yesterday held Anthony Richardson to 10 for 32.  In an age when a 55% completion rate stinks, it’s wild that they have had two games holding opposing QB to 33%.  It is really a weird outlier stat.

what’s even weirder is that both those games were nail biters for the Texans. You would think they would be blow outs.

Tank Dell doesn’t look like the same guy as last year and Stroud struggles .. a lot.. without Nico Collins. 

[Sojourner]

If you think those passing stats are wild for Anthony Richardson then you’ve missed a lot of his play. 
 

That guy is the epitome of inconsistency. 
 

Seems like his only real success in games is hitting a huge play for 25+. Great to have but you can’t win games week in week out.

Josh had a bad day.

 

Richardson is a monumental bust.

I read something about Richardson pulling himself out the game cause he was tired? Lol

You can't really say anything NFL related with 100% certainty, but i feel if the Colts had started Joe Flacco they would have won that game.  That's a lost opportunity for Indy.  Houston was ripe to be beaten.

 

Anthony Richardson got tired on a play and tapped out of the game.  That's unheard of.  He's getting ripped on the sports shows today.

I can't believe that's real and not an onion headline

That was the game where we tried to WR1 Mack Hollins and boy did it show 🙃

 

That was also the KC helmet doink game. Just a comedy of errors where you can just see how much of a game of inches the NFL is.

Coleman has been lighting it up since the helmet doink. An embarrassing moment like that can light a fire under certain people.

You have it covered by "major injuries all over" but it is worth mentioning that specifically Shakir was missing that game.

 

He is in and we win imo.

Losing a wr with a 95% catch rate is never a good thing.

How do you tap out of a game ?

Be fair …Richardson hasn’t yet had 17 starts….

Unlike Allen, that's not too far from what Richardson normally puts up.  He is pretty awful outside beautiful deep passes and a few runs.

44% completion percentage is terrible but I read he had two dropped TD passes as well

Ok, so that puts him up to 45.9%.  Still terrible.  I mean maybe that was normal in the 1960s and 1970s but that ain't going to cut it today. All teams have dropped TDs and passes as well, so not sure how much of a difference that makes.

because he can't stay on the field.  he's soft, yet made of glass.

 

huge bust--predictable disaster.  Started 1 season in college on a bad Florida team and put up crappy passing numbers.  but he was a "dual threat" guy!

 

what a mess--that's not a bad Colts Offense.  They need to roll with old Joe Flacco rest of the way. This Fo has really made mincemeat of the QB position since Luck walked away from the game

Jets and Davis had a day in his absence.

My bad on the confusion. Cook played, it was Shakir who was out. Def not our best game but Keon had definitely not emerged yet, and him drawing #1 attention wasn't the day he was going to drum it up.

 

Would've been a great game for Kincaid to have stepped up, we're still kinda waiting on him to break out. Samuel 1 catch 0 yards. I think we stomp them if we played them again, but seasons are up and down like that too!

[Generic_Bills_Fan]

Combo of Richardson not being very good and that Houston defense being very good but nobody cares because they have some good wrs 🤣. They’re pushing Minnesota for number 1 in defensive dvoa 

[Buffalo4Life01]

And yet the team still almost pulled the game out.  That tells me all I need to know about the resolve of this team.  

And I'll add this small nugget of information as well.  Don't remember exactly but Josh threw the ball away instead of forcing a throw 5 or 6 times and suffered at least 2 defined drops.  He played closer to 50% completion football as a QB than he did 30%.

J. P. Losman?

Oddly, I was telling my kids about the misses in the Bills drafts because they asked me about Brady (prompted by him being a commentator yesterday). That of course prompted me to say " gather around kids and I will tell you the story of the legend of JP.Losman. A player whose last name foreshadowed his career".

Its not that unusual for Anthony Richardson though

I think if I’m an NFL GM, I stay away from guys who don’t play a lot in college.

 

Richardson has unbelievable physical gifts, but has zero feel for the position and week to week in the NFL is not the place to learn. 
 

These coaches have always thought “get me a lot of arm/physical talent and I can teach them the rest,” but it rarely works out. 
 

Josh Allen types are 1 in a million, and honestly, I don’t know how much credit the Bills deserve in developing him.

We are going to host the Texans in the playoffs this year and will win by at least 17.

Houston is likely one of the 4 division winners, so for Buffalo to host, we’d have to get the 1 seed, or HOU would have to finish ahead of BAL. Let’s hope either scenario comes to fruition.

who's also become a YAC beast, so basically a much better extended run game

[TheFunPolice]

Richardson is awful, and I don't see him getting better. 

 

His postgame comments about being a great passer and probably the best running QB in the NFL (except for maybe Lamar Jackson) show that he's not exactly humble or even realistic
