It was a nicely placed ball that would have given them 1st and goal, and a chance to seize the lead at the midpoint of the game.

Very likely that if Granson isn't falling he at least gets a hand on that pass and that's not a TO (I haven't seen a replay to see if it is feet getting mixed together or a slip though).

They were picked by so many to run away with the division, and it took Gus Bradley being a moron for them to beat us. None of those teams have near the team HOU has.

cant imagine a 5 win run with this defense

The discouraging part is Houston’s weakness is their OLine.

They’d better nut up before Sunday because they’re gonna get a heaping helping of Josh Jacobs.

Why? The defense did great until Buckner left. With a healthy Buckner, it's absolutely possible.

I don't see the officials ignoring as many holds on third and long all season, so we have a shot. If they had called one or two of them in the second half, we are likely celebrating a division win.

AR is unfortunately gonna get the cam Newton treatment, they’re letting him get fuckin suplexed out there without a flag that’s insane for a QB

He struggles throwing to the outside, but down the middle he’s throwing fucking lasers out there

The throws he put on film will benefit JT going forward

They sold on to stop JT and dared AR to beat them and he nearly did

That last TD run was fuckin awesome as well

Even in a loss, I’m very excited about what I saw

It's so demoralizing just to watch, and it's at the point where I dread seeing 3rd and 10+, which is just infuriating. It can't be fun for the defense guys at all.

Refs are never really held accountable for their BS. Texans are a dirty ass team and that one defender launched himself like a missile head first which would have probably ended AR's season if he didn't get down. I thought QB's were suppose to be protected now days. I guess it just depends on which QB it is.

Suplex Mahomes like that you’ll be flagged, fined, ejected, or out of the league if not all the above

It's always been like that.

They'll start protecting AR when AR transcends the Indianapolis market and other markets want to watch.
