Hoyer's the QB of this team.

I have no idea what O'Brien was trying to do with Mallett. None.

It was pretty much the opposite of this in week 1. Hoyer started and looked like ****, then Mallett came in and looked generally pretty decent.

The real problem here is that when you have 2 QBs, and they both kinda suck, all it takes is for the backup to have a good series for you to say "eh, seems better than the dumpster fire I've got now". The established floor is so low that any QB who makes a couple decent plays can surpass it.
 
That drive by Hoyer just drove the final nails in Mallett's coffin.

It also drove the nail in the Texans chance of going to the Superbowl. They need a better QB, no offence to Hoyer.
 
Hoyer is straight up balling tonight. Bye Ryan, it was nice knowing you?
 
Awful. Where's the vaunted pass rush?
 
Part of the problem on defense, I think, is that this is a Houston squad so not used to two-gapping up front.

And crennel can run BB's system but may not be as flexible as him.

JJ Waat needs to do something. He's supposed to be the best player in the NFL. He's pretty overrated IMO

He and Clowney are being double-teamed quite successfully. Colts are daring Houston to beat them with someone other than those two, and Houston is not answering.
 
Luck better play next week!
 
Disgraceful defense by the texans against grandpa hasselbeck
 
Coming into tonight, in the Luck Era, the Colts are 18-2 against the AFC South and 17-15 against everyone else.
 

Good chance, for sure. If we're re-drafting knowing what we know now, I wouldn't be surprised if Le'Veon Bell goes #1. The two you mentioned, Sheldon Richardson, Ziggy Ansah, Desmont Trufant, Star Lotulelei, Travis Frederick, Eddie Lacy and Travis Kelce (or Larry Warford) probably round out the top 10.
 
There's been a ton of holding by the Colts offensive line tonight as well. Even freakin Simms has picked up on it.

Rex Grossman made it to the superbowl. Trent Dilfer WON a superbowl. It's possible. Not great but still possible. Hoyer's contract would allow the Texans to surround him with talent.

100 % it wont be called next week . NFL will issue directives to the refs to not let pats win if possible.

Definitely not being flexible. This is a defense with talent that's particularly suited to 4-3 one-gapping.
