Will we see Moton against JJ Watt in the Preseason Opener?

According to NFL.com, http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000826080/article/jj-watt-to-play-in-houston-texans-preseason-opener. JJ Watt will finally return to the field in game action against us in our Preseason Opener. I'm curious to see how well Moton will do against one of the best, if not the best DE in the league. Although I think that Williams will be up first and doubt if Watt will stay in the game long enough for us to see the Moton vs Watt...

Maybe not since one is a starter and the other isnt. Maybe?

 

Kalil has been struggling to stay healthy, I doubt he takes many reps. Moton could get a few reps against the Texans first string D. Amini may be in there at left tackle though. Time will tell.

Yea doesn't make me feel good that he is struggling right now. Amini is our back up LT guys...

Igo used a strong adjective to describe Kalil's health, not his performance. He should be good to go Sunday in those terms:

it depends how good he is. if he looks too good watt will demand to move to the other side so he can get his highlight play to the detriment of the team.

I'm just gonna remember Turner mauling him like a dummy. That was sweet.

So did Remmers in practice. 

 

I am skeptical. 

I know, skepticism sells. My point is that he hasn't been a complete disaster like I expected him to be. Especially as a tackle. But yeah, poo can always change in a game. Hope he gets some PT vs Clowney.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
