It's so nice (if unusual) to be on the right end of a big comeback!

Random thought…with the NFL being a ratings juggernaut, why would Fox not air a game in the 3:00 slot? I see this from time to time. Some rando drama series called "Doc" airing here.

They don't want to go head to head to head with the Bills/Chiefs. This game draws more viewers than most wildcard games.


So explain why we get the Rams vs 49ers?

For most of the season, CBS and FOX alternate days they can air games in both slots. There are two weeks this season where both teams will have doubleheaders (see link below). Last week, it was CBS' turn, this week it's FOX's. Local stations can pick from a slate of available games to choose which one to air. Personally, I would have preferred Lions/Commanders here in the Houston area this afternoon.

play by play announcer gave a shoutout to Clutch City at the end of the broadcast, nice touch.

If you enjoy watching another team's message board having a total meltdown, I highly recommend this Jags' forum starting on Page 56 when they declare the game is over (thread is 98 pages long now)

Credit to the players and coaches for not quitting on this game. After the disastrous beginning, I almost changed the channel several times. In theory, this keeps their season alive.

Jag fans have to be sick. That was Oiler-like.

We left when it was 29-10 along with 2/3 of the stadium. Huge mistake

I disagree. We need to address the offensive line and you don't need a top five pick for that.

Dang, I couldn't see the game this afternoon and forgot to tape it.

Did watch the highlights though, man I feel bad for those that left early.

Counterproductive win if we're not making the playoffs but the 4th quarter was a lot of fun regardless.
CharleyKerfeld

For all the mockery, which I am often a part of, that was really special to see Davis Mills get that ovation. You could tell he was feeling. Being the white nerd backup quarterback to the supposed top-tier younger quarterback and coming through with that kind of finish is something none of us could have possibly dreamed of, and yet here it is.

If you had told me yesterday that Davis Mills was going to have a 14-yard TD run in the fourth quarter, I would have assumed that made the game 35-7 Jaguars. Now you're 4-5 and at the Titans next week, then a short week to get to Buffalo. Two days ago, that seemed like a loss before the Bills got stomped by the Atrain.

Still have some very winnable games out there - @ Titans, vs. Cardinals, vs. Raiders. If you get those 3, your're up to 7 wins. that means finding 3 more among Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, and two with the Colts.

Obviously the Colts look pretty ridiculous right now, but their defense sucks and they've played about as easy a schedule as anyone so far. Even a split there gets you a tiny bit closer to the playoffs.

Adding another top 5 skill position before CJ/Jr get their contract would be ideal. Im in the tank party. No way this team is a contender this year.

Another skill position player? They just drafted the Iowa State receivers and Woody last year. Sure, I would love to have a home run hitter at running back or tight end, but unless they spend a lot of money on free agent linemen, they have to take a lineman in the first round. It is their biggest need without question.

Tanking isn't good for your franchise unless you're starting over, which we aren't doing. Psychologically, that isn't good for your team. They will likely miss the playoffs and finish somewhere in the middle, which should afford them the chance to draft a really good line prospect who can step in and play right away. Maybe two of them. That is what they need the most.

Tanking would be very bad for culture. You are basically telling the team, who's been to the playoffs and won the last two years, that they aren't good enough.

OL will be a big focus, again, this offseason. Need to sign an OG/C in free agency.

Trent Brown looked pretty good yesterday - massive individual. If he can come along, that makes Tytus either able to be pushed inside. Ersery seems to be progressing too.
CharleyKerfeld

Tanking doesn't help the guys there now learn how to win. You still have to do that as a team. By all rights, they should have probably been thinking about tanking at 0-2 to start 2023 after so many bad years in a row. Instead they won the division and a playoff game

Can this team make the playoffs? It doesn't seem likely, but the conference also doesn't make sense right now. Indy, Denver, and New England all 8-2? The Patriots are the ones who scare me. Smart coach, exciting young QB. Doesn't seem fair for them to have those 2 things again so quickly.

Texans Bingo Update 11-10-25

Spreadsheet

The Colts hit their O/U win total, but nobody picked them to go over.
Texans' win pace up to 8. Jags at 9, Cowboys at 6, Titans at 2.

Nice came for Nico gets him on pace for 1,058 receiving yards. Square is 1,100

Dalton Schultz acting like Corbin Bersen in third act of Major League and suddenly giving a ***** On pace for a massive season of 85 catches for 910 yards; squares were 56 and 575.

Still on pace for the exact square of 19 team INTs.

Achane just 70 yards away from his 850 rushing yard total, and on pace for 1,326.
Needs 3 TD for 12.
Von needs 1 sack for 5.
Myles up to an incredible 11 sacks; needs 3 more for 14.

Matchup leaders: (these are the paces)
Passing Yards: Goff over Mayfield, 4,222-3,853
Passing TDs: Goff over Mayfield 38-30
Rushing TDs: Gibbs over Cook 15-13
Rushing Yards: Henry over Robinson 1,330-1,283
Receiving Yards: Chase over Jefferson 1,589-1,296.

Next year we'll just have to do "pick whoever you want" on the stat leaders.

The team is in a really odd place. Arguably put together a championship level defense. Have a QB that you still think has the potential to be a top 10 QB. Receiving corp is OK, but you already have the big piece in Nico. Woody has added a spark at RB. Basically, it's a pretty damn good team except for the OL. But the OL is so bad that it's wrecking everything else.

Because of that, I don't know what they should do. Outside of the OL, Caserio has done a pretty good job so I'm not sure he deserves the axe just yet. Maybe an OL consultant to help with that one position group? Seems like if we could just figure that out, we're in good shape.

Daboll out. Between him and I'm assuming McDaniel will be available as well, there should be a couple of options there for OC next year. I think that would help tremendously.

Doubt it'll happen

Caserio isn't gonna can his cronie after 1 season and put CJ into yet another offensive scheme.
