Way to hang in there Arky appreciate your time an effort.

Thanks!

They played like they are tanking today. Tyrod was miserable. Davis Mills not much better. Hate the run-the-ball/dink and dunk offense - they aren't very good at it.

Next up is Seattle at NRG. Early line has the Seahawks by 6½ to 8.

Tyrod's performance was surprisingly bad. The Texans are tanking... suspending Cunningham a week after Reid is making it obvious but Tyrod and all other players on the field should be still playing their best effort level. Tyrod is probably just showing us he is what he is.... a career backup at NFL standard, which is not all that surprising actually.

The players aren't dumb. Morale is likely suffering when they see these lame suspensions.

LB Kamu Grugier-Hill deserves mention for his 20 tackles yesterday. I think this was a Texan record. Looks like a keeper (but you never know with the Texans).

I think you're misreading this, I don't think the Texans are anywhere near this devious. This isn't a deliberate tank, this is just incompetence masquerading as building culture. I absolutely reject the notion that these suspensions are part of a tanking effort. It's just more garden variety Texans idiocy.

But they're going to end up with a top two pick in the draft and I for one can't wait to see how that bug eyed lunatic fks it up.
