Caley isn't going anywhere.

They aren't gonna put Stroud in a 3rd offense system.

Plus you think Caserio is can his boy after just 1 year?

Some of y'all need to wake up. This is the same dysfunctional Texans organization as it's always been.

Raiders tried to help us out a little bit, but it may be at the point where it wouldn't matter much, anyway.

Texans 8/0 when we win one possession games. Unfortunately 0-5 when we don't. Somewhat think Ryans is pressuring Caley to jam it in from the goal line, despite that not fitting any players skill set.

Demeco should hire kubiak as a consultant this offseason to learn misdirection.

Broncos have 7 one possession games out of 9
4 of those are within 3 points.

Texans have 5 out of 8 one possession games.

Could be the case for many teams.

Complete incompetence to think that Davis Mills could move the team 50-60 yards from his 12 in 60 seconds.

Run it three times, get to OT and hope you could sneak out a win or tie.

This is the biggest game changer that was completely in their control for sure.
Run the ball, or even just kneel, and get to OT. Broncos only had 2 timeouts.

Instead they do an incomplete pass using 6 secs, complete pass out of bounds* using 4 seconds, then incomplete pass using 4 seconds.. then punt for 10 seconds.. All in they burn all of 24 seconds and give the ball back to the team that is currently the talk of the town for end of 4th quarter come back drives.

*That receiver should have stayed in bounds.. clock should have kept running and may have changed the outcome.

Fairbairn has attempted 25 field goals in 8 games -- an astounding number less than halfway thru the season

he's made 22 of 25

5 of 8 from 50+

and adding insult to injury...

somehow the Panthers are 5-4 after winning at Green Bay today

Bryce Young has not been very good this year, but Carolina ranks 4th in the NFL in rushing yards per game

Why is Davis Mills still our backup? There are so many serviceable backup QBs out there and we still have this bill O'Brien special? Wtf?

Looking around the league of injured QBs, I'm not sure that's true anymore.

The Bengals' backup was so bad that they had to trade for Grandpa Flacco.

The Ravens backup was so bad that the Texans beat the **** out of them in Baltimore.

The rest of the league? I'd at least put Davis in the middle of the pack

Cardinals - Jacoby Brissett
Falcons - Kirk Cousins
Bills - Mitchell Trubisky
Panthers - Andy Dalton
Bears - Tyson Bagent - I have no idea who this person is
Cowboys - Joe Milton III
Broncos - Jarrett Stidham
Lions - Kyle Allen
Packers - Malik Willis
Colts - Riley Leonard
Jaguars - Nick Mullens
Chiefs - Gardner Minshew
Raiders - Kenny Pickett
Chargers - Trey Lance
Rams - Jimmy Garoppolo
Dolphins - Quinn Ewers - Suddenly Davis Mills ain't looking so bad
Vikings - Max Brosmer - I have no idea who this person is
Patriots - Joshua Dobbs
Saints - Taysom Hill
Giants - Russell Wilson
Jets - Tyrod Taylor
Eagles - Tanner McKee - I have no idea who this person is
Steelers - Mason Rudolph
49ers - Mac Jones
Seahawks - Drew Lock
Buccaneers - Teddy Bridgewater
Titans - Brandon Allen - I have no idea who this person is
Commanders - Marcus Mariota

I think the point was that if all one score games go the other way, Texans are in 1st place undefeated.

But if the colts had the same treatment, they'd be undefeated as well.. their two losses were by 7.
And the jags would be 7-1.
The broncos only 2 losses were by 3 and 1.
The chiefs would be 9-0 as well. Their 4 losses were by 6,7,3 and 7.
The patriots lost their only 2 games by 7...


My point is, reversing the outcome of 1 score losses gives several teams really good or undefeated records. It's not unique to the Texans.

I'd rather have 90% of the guys on that list over Davis Mills. I'd rather have Joe Flacco. No excuse to not have a better option off the bench than Mills. Our offense is bad regardless but damn we stood zero chance yesterday once stroud came out.

At this point, every win comes at the expense of the Texans' draft capital. There is no upside to a win, because this team isn't doing squat with respect to the playoffs.

Completely unacceptable and another indictment on Caley and this garbage ass offense.

Everything having to do with offense is ass. Personnel decisions, game planning, play calling, execution.

This doesn't seem useful without knowing how many times they were 2 yards or less to goal.

Point being is that from 2 yards it should be automatic and no team should have a 0

what if a team has never had first and goal inside the 2-yard line though? As the other poster said, this is pretty worthless without context.

Mills is awful. He's not the reason Texans lost the game but sure as hell contributed a whole lot to losing it. He misses too many throws - plain and simple. You are a professional, make the throw.

The OL is the primary reason Texans lost the game. The front office needs to get their **** together and build a roster that actually will function in the type of offense the Texans are trying to do.

A poster suggested contacting Kubiak and that wouldn't be a bad decision. The stretch run game would take a lot of pressure off of Stroud and whoever the Texans get to replace Mills.
I know nothing!

Not in any order but give me Mariota, Drew Lock, Garoppolo, or Mac Jones over Davis Mills every freaking day

Apparently the Texans have run 10 plays from inside their opponents' 2 yard line and scored 0 TDs. Seth Payne said this morning that teams have a 53% chance of scoring from the 1 on any given play. I wasn't a math major but comparing these numbers sure doesn't look too good for the Texans.

We're the only team with zero, so apparently every other team has had at least one chance.

You're right that it's not a perfect stat. But being the only team in the league who hasn't been able to punch it in all season is noteworthy.
