Hol up I saw face mask penalty when he had the ball, so the Texans get a penalty for horsecollar tackling yet not even an offsetting penalty on KC?

I read that. That was a double slant route. Easy to make those passes within the 5 into the End Zone.

Texans showed promised in the beginning, but it looks like their O-Line troubles still persist. Watson has the weapons, but if he has to keep scrambling, his full potential is limited: teams know how to contain him in these situations now.

So Clyde Edwards-Helaire had 25 carries for 138 Yards (Avg 5.52 Yards Per Rush) and 1 TD. Nice job for the Former Tiger in his first NFL Career Start.

Nope, he's just a football fan at this point lol.

Gotta say - Watson did look a little bit off his game. Granted, I heard Brandin Cooks dropping a pass on the radio and then when I got home I saw another horrible drop, both deep balls, but Watson had Fuller V, I think it was, like middle-school level wide open. Should have been an easy touchdown, but he under threw it to the point Fuller got tackled.

They've actually got a pretty brutal first 7 games. Baltimore next, then Minnesota (8-8 last season but they're always a strong team), then Tennessee. Pittsburgh, they get a break with Jacksonville, and then Green Bay. If Watson can get them to 4-3 through these first 6 games, the schedule is a lot easier after that. Jags, Cleveland, New England, Detroit, Colts twice, Bears, Bengals, Titans. That could end up being a 7-2 run, assuming a split with Indy nd Tennessee, and a loss to New England or the Bears.

The Vikings had a 10-6 record last year; 2018 was the season their record was 8-7-1. But yeah, they certainly have a rough schedule in the beginning half. they should be able to beat the Jags, Colts, Browns, and Bengals but given the Texans' O-Line is shit, Watson is going to struggle against some good teams.

Here's a 2020ish heads up, guys. The Cowboys at Rams game and the Cards at 49er game are in jeopardy. The NFL may postpone either or both of these games if the air quality index (AQI) is above 200.

The LA game is the inaugural NFL game in the new $5 billion SoFi Stadium.

Yeah, it is an amazing stadium. Yeah, it's the smoke from the fires.

Been around awhile, Ran. Wish we didn't need to refer to it. The metric was created by the Clean Air Act of 1977, but it was called the PSI (Pollution Standards Index) until 1999 when 2 more pollutants were added changed to AQI.

They spent all that money on those new stadiums, and even in a normal year the Rams have had trouble dragging fans to games. Now they have both COVID and fires everywhere. What did they expect would happen?
