Talking Texans Time (and Titays)


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Fellow Huddlers, 

 

It is now time to divert our attention to preseason week 1 and the Houston Texans. 

 

Key Story Lines - 

CMC's first game

Cam Newton won't play

How much of the Panthers new offense will we see? 

All eyes on Matt Kalil and Taylor Moton. Are they the answer?

Please provide your thoughts on the upcoming game.

Since Moton was mentioned instead of big Daryll, does this mean that maybe Moton will be starting or is it still Williams job to lose?

Williams job to lose on the right. It is probably the most likely change that could happen along the offensive line.

Any idea where they like Moton the most? Or are they just happy to have him as a guy they can plop anywhere?

I think the "new offense" will look identical to last seasons preseason offense.  I don't expect much except the same old basic plays out of the playbook for preseason.  

CMC - will be interesting.  If he is ahead of the curve for a rookie then I wouldn't be shocked if we don't see tons of him.  But part of me wants to see him go ham on fools in the 3rd and 4th like most rookies get a shot at. 

Probably most excited to see Kalil work against a strong Texan unit.  Cam being out IMO actually will provide the best audition for Kalil....to see where he really is.  Anderson won't have any magic to aid the OL. 

I actually think Anderson vs a strong Texan front.....greatly favors the Texans and likely leads to a huge huddle preseason meltdown of panic.  We see those all the time. 

I think the first quarter star will be Bradberry.  

I think the second half star will be Boulware. I can see him eating up late game chumps and fans digging the attitude.

    • The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
