Well, it is a bit moist outside. Maybe he does better with a dry ball.

I think he just needs to game to slow down for him in this offense. He looked a bit shaky at times, but there are some tools there.

Texans kickoff. KC's ball at their own 12. Rain really coming down...

On 4th and 2, PI on Parson (?) - 1st down KC

KC moving the ball....

I thought they could defend the receivere for 5 yards, pretty ticky-tack call on Parsons. Chiefs did a sneak on 4th to keep it going.

Chiefs now near midfield...

Pass complete to the Texan 31

On 4th and 2, Pass is blocked. Texans takeover at about the Chief 24.

Okam knocked down pass on 4th down, he's had some other good pressures, so maybe he's coming around. Texans get it on their own 25 on downs.

That could be it. I have been holding my breath every time he releases the ball.
However he has been looking decent. I am curious to see Grossman now.

I don't doubt that he can look better mentally and performance wise, I just don't think he throws a good ball. But Philip Rivers can't throw a spiral and he is effective. So hopefully Orlovsky can be effective.

Frank Okam snuffs out the fourth-down play. Texans give ground but the Chefs do not score.
