Ugh.....I hate to even have this thought, but I'm jealous of how big and physical NE is. Vrabel is building what he had in TN, except that he has Maye.

Wow.......Koo needs to pull a Vontae Davis and retire at the half.

And over before it ever started.

He got handsy a bit early, on a couple of occasions. Watched the game with my son, and we kept giving each other the big eye look, just waiting for a flag. That being said, Tre has been a lot better the last few games. I think early on in the season, he was not fully healthy and was a serious liability. He's at least been solid.

The entire defense has performed better with Shaq running the defense. He's been a visible force every game He's played.

Almost impossible to pass when teams know where your going, and you lack talent at WR. Brady and Beane are killing us.

I can't give Brady credit for the running game. To me, that's all Kromer. He's the difference maker their and our most valuable coach.

I like the idea of targeting the Rams organization. As for Slowik, he's at the very bottom of the list for me. It turns out that he's a fraud, or at least he was, aa the Texans OC. Going into year 2, Chris Simms on his unbuttoned podcast, basically said that this guy's knowledge consisted of knowing a playbook, but not an actual offense. He further said, now that teams have a year of film, he was curious how he would do year 2. If you don't know the actual rules of an offense, how are you going to get answers. As we all know, he got fired about 1/2 way through year 2. Slowik was under Shanahan in SF, who is close friends with Simms. This to me says a lot, about how they feel about him as a coach. Ironically enough, I'm starting to feel that way about Brady, running almost the same plays as last year's, and not having in game answers or counters for things.

It surprises me to see McDermott this high, given his resume. I was never part of the fire McDermott crowd and have been more critical of Beane's drafts picks. However, McDermott seems to get the most out of secondary talent, but the opposite might be true for the dline. Looking at both Poona, and Settle performing at a high level elsehwere, makes me think there's a big problem with his scheme. However, there's no Ben Johnson this year, or Sean Payton. For anyone wanting him fired, who do we replace him with, and is it a HC/GM package deal?

I know the word trust has been thrown around a lot, specifically with the WR position. 1. Can you (Josh) trust the guy to win his 1 on 1 matchup, if playing against man. 2. Can you (Josh) trust him to be in the right spot, against zone coverage. If there are issues here, too often with one or the other, or maybe both, you have to look for a more reliable replacement. I guess now we know what role Cooks will be filling, especially with Samuel being hurt all the time.

AFC is a toss up, but the way we are playing right now, especially with no pass rush, the Rams would steam roll us.

This same Texans defense held Josh to 9 for 30 last year. The only reason I don't agree, is because of Allen. I don't expect the oline to have another game like this one. That being said, it really sucks watching this team right now. They are painful to watch, at least every other week.

1. Horrible soft defense in the 1st half. To allow a struggling Texans offense to score 20 in the 1st half is inexcusable. 2. The offensive line played its worst game by far. Spencer Brown should of taken himself out a lot sooner. He really hurt the line the most. As soon as he took himself out, things improved quite a bit, but the damage was done. 3. Bernard had no business being out there. He should of dressed and played in emergency situations only. 4. Season is not over, even though it feels that way now. Maybe we need to be the underdog, since we obviously struggle as the league darling.

The safety faked towards Knox, and baited Allen into the throw. It was a great play by the defender, and given all the sacks tonight, Josh rushed it.

This soft zone vanilla defense is horrendous. Someone please make it stop.
