This game may bring us back down to earth, much better team than the Cardinals.

 

Key thing is going to be OL vs DL on both sides

Texans OL is probably the worst in the league (maybe only Miami is worse).  But atleast Tunsill helps on the Left side instead of Matt Kalil who was projected the starter in preseason.  Hopkins is still one of the top 3-5 WR in the league so it will be a test for Bradberry.  The others are what concerns me.  Djax's strengths always is his speed so if he makes a mistake he can recover. but Fuller is just as fast as him, so he needs to be on his A game.

Kenny Stills is a solid Vet speedster that should be a challenge for our nickel.  

They also motion guys around and put Hopkins in the slot which we saw the Bengals do last year with AJ green against us that bit us.

 

 

 

 

On the other side, we aren't facing Arizona again who had one of the leagues worst defenses.  The Texans front 7 is among one of the leagues best.

Per PFF the Texans have 2 of the top 5 highest graded interior DL in the league through 3 games.    And one of them isnt even Watt

 

 

 

The last 2 weeks:

Chargers (OL is pretty comparable level as ours)- they had 5 sacks and 12 QB hits

Against the Jaguars- 4 Sacks, 8 QB hits

 

This should be a low scoring game

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room (behind him anyway). Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
