Pessimists will note "it was the Lions" and that three of the Texans' four wins are now against the Lions and Jaguars, but apart from another typical slow start, they were actually a competent team.
Deshaun Watson has probably had several better games statistically, but I don't recall a time when he was more poised leading the offense than today. Particularly impressive because Watson has the worst rushing offense in the league to support him and an iffy pair of guards protecting him. Defensively, there are still major weaknesses at all three levels. I'm at a bit of a loss as to why the Lions didn't feature more of Adrian Peterson prior to the game getting out of hand. The Texans are soft up the middle, and a big back like that can wear them down. Now 3-1 after returning from the bye weekend, and easily could have been 4-0, the schedule turns back to the Colts and a chance to gauge how much of a mirage the past month has been. |

A nice win on a short week but wayyy too many penalties. This showcased why both teams suck. Penalties and turnovers.
Kinda disappointed they postponed the Crips and the Bloods for tonight's TNF. Somebody's got to knock these guys off. |

Early line when the Colts come to town next week has them as a 2½ to 3 pt favorite over the Texans. Opened at 3½ so a little money has come in on the Texans....
-------------------------------------------------- Fivethirtyeight.com has the Texans with a 2% chance of making the playoffs.... |

Texans release Kenny Stills:
https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/...ls-sources-say ------------------------------------------------------ Don't look now but Deshaun Watson is having a very good year. Currently #1 in yardage (3,201) - but he has played one more game than most everyone else. Several will probably pass him after the rest of the week is concluded. 68.9% completion (7th) 24 TDs (tied for 5th) with just 5 INTs. 112.5 rating (3rd behind Mahomes and Rodgers) |

Eeesh, the Colts have (had) a top 5 defense and the Titans just ripped 'em a new one, 45-26.
They will probably come to town looking to atone themselves..... |

Baltimore @ Pittsburgh today @ 2:40 pm on NBC in the rare Wednesday afternoon game.
Pittsburgh will then have to play Washington on Monday before the MNF game. Baltimore will play the next day (Tuesday night) vs. Dallas. Everybody got that? Test on Friday..... --------------------------------------------------------- TV execs and schedule makers are probably getting data they didn't expect this year.... Things they would never want to try in a "normal", fixed schedule year... Edit: Also, no TNF tomorrow. ![]() Last edited by Arky; 12-02-2020 at 06:20 AM. |
