Like was said in the other thread, what Miami did leaves TE open - but with Miami that leaves you with less options to double Taylor. Or you can double him and . . . bye bye TE. Houston doesn't have a Taylor.PS - What is going to keep other teams from copying Miami's game plan? (Prevent the receivers from getting off the LOS and tee off on Brady).
Yeah, Houston is tied for 7th/8th worst in sacks allowed with 38. We are 14th with 25 allowed. Defensively, we have 34 sacks and they have 26 so this is to our advantage all the way around.Doesn't Houston have a crappy O line and a passer who goes down early and often?
I think Gary Kubiak has one of the best offensive minds in the NFL. Unfortunately, with the Texans he lacks too much talent.
He doesn't lack talent overall, he lacks talent on the line. The Texans Offensive Line has been plagued with injuries.... Chester Pitts is the only lineman that is still starting from the beginning of this year. The line has not had a chance to gel, and Kubiak needs an offensive line that can help move the ball.
Right now the Texans are playing Ron Dayne as the #1 RB because he hits the holes quickly and can bring a few guys with him. Wali Lundy will get some goal line and 3rd down touches, depending on how Kubiak is preparing for this game. Samkon Gado could be active as well.
As far as WR, the Texans have depth. The only problem is that the O-line doesn't give David Carr enough time to take a breath before he has to get rid of that ball. Get ready to see a lot of quick 3 or 5 step drops followed by dinks and dunks up the field.
The Texans defense has really improved since the beginning of the year and is led by rookie DeMeco Ryans, who leads the league in Solo and Total Tackles.
All in all I hope that it will be an injury-free, enjoyable game.
the fact that its the denver system ..zone blocking and all..makes me wary of them irrespective of their record
That has been my pet peeve this season, that changes and adjustments are not made. When something is very apparently not working, it is insanity to keep doing the same thing and expect a different result.
You are right about the no huddle, it should not have waited until halfway through the fourth quarter to be tried.
Against the Texans, at home, I hope we come out very agressively, on BOTH sides of the ball, and go after them early...and not have to keep everyone on the edge of our seats until the fourth quarter in a game that could be decided by one fumble, one interception , etc.
Not to degrade Houston, but they ARE a team that we should beat, especially playing at home.
Haven't been keeping track of Mario Williams, how is he working out for you guys?
The last time we played the Pats was in Reliant, and we took you guys to OT. I hope that we can have another close game like that.
