Official Pre Game Thread- Pats @ Texans

[sb1]

Pats are -9.5 favorites on the road here. LOL. For good reason. Even Hoyer might be better than Mills.

I'd be wary of a letdown after the emotional game last night but the Texans are as trash as a team gets. Pats really ought to win this game by a lot more than the spread shows.

No excuses this needs to be a convincing win

 

[StockingAnarchyNumber12]

Need to win this one.

A loss here probably means the end of our season. I feel like we should win, but our team is also really undisciplined and we have a really bad offensive line. Also need a better running attack. I think we win, but if we don't then something needs to change.

 

[NG Pats Fan]

With our offense not being explosive enough to score more than 17 PPG =, we are not capable of blowing teams out. I expect this one to be a tight one.

 

[libra957]

No excuse not to get this one. Winnable games need to be won. Should have been 3-1.The texans might be worse than the jets so I expect a huge bounce back.

 

[JayNM]

I dont start celebrating before the 30th point

 

[TheRainMaker]

Can’t lose this game.

 

[sb1]

With a guy like Mills starting and Cam still not having a job... tells you what other teams think of Cam.

[Hammer of Thor]

Couldn’t pull Beasley Reece out of retirement for this one?…..

Jets- Texans in November should be ratings gold

Weird to call something a trap game when you're 1-3, but this has trap game written all over it. Lately we seem to lose to Houston even when they're worse than us.

Davis Mills though.....hard to see him pulling it off.

It just feels more like a must win for us than a "trap." Two teams with poor records, that's pretty much it.

We need this because we can't drop to 1-4 and lose another conference game this early on if we want to be in contention or in the thick of things come December.

I want to see more trash articles of Jack "Little Finger" Easterby. Still boggles the mind how this fraud (I will acknowledge he's fraud #1 while the current Pats oc is fraud #2) went from Patriot team chaplain to overseeing football operations and trades. He also got O'Brien fired which I'm actually ok with bc that leaves O'Brien ready to rejoin the Pats after his season at Alabama.

Texans are as trash as a team gets

If anything is trash its this take.

They played well before they lost starting QB and went with rookie who is not ready for NFL.
Everyone trashed them and ridiculed Caserio & Tyrod etc . and then they rolled over Jaguars and played on par in Cleveland until Taylor injury.

Losing the heart of their D in Cunningham was a big blow as well.

After Mills was completely lost at the wheel yesterday some vets started making business decisions and they looked ugly.
But that is not the face they will show next Sunday at home.

This should be a win not bc Texans are “trash“ but bc Pats are a better team that is relatively healthy and improving.
And has a QB who can play NFL.

I'm talking about the current state of the Texans. They are trash as they are.

 

[PaulThePat]

Let's just hope the Pats D doesn't return to that old habit of making trash QB's looks good i.e. 5/20 for 80 yards and 5 ints one week, the next its 25/30 for 376 yards and 4 TDs when the Pats roll into town

 

[oldrover]

I'm psyched for this... remember, Pats are...



...on the road.
