Official Texans vs. Titans Game Thread, 1/3/2021

[Arky]

Fairbairn gets a 28-yard FG with just a few seconds left in the half.

Titans 17, Texans 9

Just 3 more FGs to take the lead.....

Oilers playcalling inside the Red Zone last few weeks has been atrocious. It's either "throw short and off target", "throw into the end zone too high and too hard" or "run around to extend the play until somebody tackles the QB".

Next year, there needs to be a real OC to call plays.

[Arky]

Henry runs one in from 6 to open the 2nd half.

Titans 24, Texans 9

9:53 left in the 3rd qtr.

[Arky]

Watson to Cooks on the flea flicker for a 38-yard TD.

Ex-p no good.

Titans 24, Texans 15

8:08 left in the 3rd qtr.

[Arky]

Tannehill scrambles in for a 5 yard TD.

Titans 31, Texans 15

4:29 left in the 3rd qtr.

[Arky]

Watson to Cooks for a 20-yard TD pass.

Try for 2 is good with a short pass to Hansen. Edit: Play is ruled short.

Titans 31, Texans 21

2:59 left in the 3rd qtr.

[Arky]

Texan's defense with the rare turnover - Cunningham slaps the ball loose from Henry.

A few plays and David Johnson punches it in from the 1.

Titans 31, Texans 28

1:20 left in the 3rd qtr.

[Arky]

Titans inexplicably go for it on 4th and 11 and Tannehill gets sacked. Texan's ball.

Watson lobs one in to P Brown for the 7 yard TD.

Texans 35, Titans 31

10:14 left in the game.

[HPF Bob]

Now you know why I'm calling them the Oilers. Same ol' Oilers.

Who knew Vraeble would take a page from his x boss's playbook on that 4th & 11 ?
Anybody else see that block white-boy Chad made ? Don't see many WRs block like that, and I bet the Chuckster got so excited on that play he spilled that cheap Pabst Blue Ribbon beer he drinks all over himself.

Haha. Yes, I saw the block from Hansen. Teamwork successfully executed in action was kinda rare with this year's Texans. Is that the players or the coachs or both? Hansen was only targeted 4 times = 2 catches for 16 yards, had the over-turned 2 pointer.

Cooks wants to come back:

I think Cooks, Coutee, Hansen, Fuller and our assorted tight ends is good to above average group and may be one area that doesn't need a lot of attention this off-season.....
