Other NFL Games Week 7

If you get pressure on Stroud, he feels it for the next 4 plays even if there's no pressure. His pocket can be perfectly clean but he's still thinking about the guy in his face a few minutes ago and panicking and throwing it out of bounds.

Nope, they just said "we had enough" and gave up lol

Absolutely puzzling decision

Oh, good grief. Another blunder to add to the many blunders in this game tonight.

And the game is finished by another blunder.

For some reason they traded off his OL and have done a poor job replacing them. Especially in a year with a new offensive coordinator. On a side note, Slowik might have been better than they thought. 

I know most people here just box score watch but man what Slowik was doing year 1 made Stroud’s life so easy. He was scheming guys wide open. I thought he was well on his way to becoming a HC

Then year 2 happened 

Stroud looked really good year 1 because that situation was a great spot for any QB to be in. 

The longer this plays out and we’re seeing Stroud struggle with pressure while still having a top 5-10 WR1 I have no doubt in my mind had we drafted him instead of Young it would’ve played out the same way

We’re seeing just how important situation and coaching matters when it comes to Stroud. If the Texans ever decide to move on from him he’ll be someone that will have no shortage of options. You put him in a good spot like Tampa and he’d go off

Revisionist history.

Virtually no one in the NFL sphere was saying this when they drafted him. Many agreed he would be a project to develop slowly over the course of a few years.

The decision to gut their O-line was fuging insane. Even our idiotic franchise recognized that Bryce was never going to survive without a good OL and remedied that issue.

That is true. They were a play away from legit earning the top pick, while in contrast we were in the 9th slot and not viewed as the worst team, not close.
We were seen by many, on the outside and here and in the building as being a player or two away from contending for the division.

That OL was just awful to watch. Add in the drops on some potential nice gainers and that offense is terrible.

Our OL is good when it comes to running the ball but pass blocking not so much and we see it so often

Ours at least isn't from lack of effort in our front office.  Icky missed the first game, Moton missed week 6, Hunt has missed a lot of the games and will be out for a while, Lewis was out last game, our center fortunately upgraded when Corbs went down.  I don't know if we have started the same group of OL yet this year....

    • I had hope as recently as this year that Bryce would fail so hard that Tepper just throws in the towel on dictating to the football people. But my meager sports prayers are not usually heard. 
    • He is much more decisive with the ball. He also is less suited for extending plays than Bryce. But he also has a little better pocket presence, as well.  My prediction, assuming he starts, is that he will do a little better than Bryce has. I don't expect that to lead to a victory nor do I expect him to light the world on fire. 
    • You said it!  But really, it comes down to fixing your organization and the team before diving in for that new QB. Even then, you've really only got about two seasons to do it before the GM and HC seats get too hot. It's a remarkably tough job and it keeps things interesting. Quality organizations keep the ball rolling, sometimes for as much as 10 years of competitiveness. And bad organizations can have an even longer shelf life of hell for their fans.
