Statistics show that you need 8-11 seconds to run a play and spike the ball. They wouldn’t have had the time

So you’re saying the coaches would have left the sideline open? So you agree the coaches are an issue?

In that case, you’re missing the yardage gained on the run plays. If we gain 5 yards on the run plays, and Houston can’t gain 5 yards on the last second play (because they have 0 timeouts), the 59 yard kick is now 69. You think they’re making a 69 yarder? I don’t… I don’t think they’re breaking a NFL record.

Agreed that we are lacking in talent. Mack Hollins losing track of TWO deep passes, one that hit him in the hands, is inexcusable.

What if we made it harder on them? Uh, good? That should be the goal? 1) A kick looking good from 64, when kicking from 59, does not mean it actually would have been good from 64. Why? Because when kicking from 64, the entire angle of the kick changes. Much easier to block too. 2) Running 3 times, removes all timeouts from Houston. Know what that means? It means they can’t run that last second play to gain another 3 cards. So it wouldn’t have been 64, it would have been more like 67. .

You have no problem with losing as long as it was entertaining? Goodness. God bless ya, but fans like you are a different breed. I can’t relate.

I don’t understand the thinking at all. They thought we were going to drive 70 yards in 30 seconds? From our own endzone? Even if we ran 3 times, got 5 yards, and punted… Houston would have been without timeouts, more time would have been off the clock, AND the kick (if there was one), would have been from 63+.

No, this takes the cake Last week was bad, but we were out coached and outmanned. This week, the coaching design to pass 3 times out of your endzone instead of making Houston burn a single timeout is outragoeus

There is NEVER a circumstance where you run an offense, in a tied game, with 30-some seconds left, out of your own endzone! You make them burn their timeouts. Let’s say we get 5 yards on 3 runs… that 59 yard kick is now a 67 yard kick. Why? Without timeouts available, the Texans can’t run that last second play to get another 3-4 yards. So you have the 5 yards from the runs, AND the 3-4 yards they got on the last play. He isn’t making it from 67. And don’t even get me started on not challenging the Kincaid catch and instead taking TWO timeouts into the half. Stroud gifted us a punt, when they should have been kicking a go-ahead field goal… and we return the favor by throwing 3 times out of our endzone!?!?

This loss is on the coaches. Fully

I can’t begin to understand. WHY??? Why would you run an offense there?

HORRIBLE COACHING. TRULY HORRIBLE.

1) Get Mack Hollins out of here. 2) WHY ARE WE NOT RUNNING THE BALL

That was such an incredible gift.

This.

It’s truly amazing how we we haven’t figured out all game that they will use their RB’s in the flats.

He has 3 receptions through 4.9 games.

Come on… this is just like of the NFL. In these situations, most teams bleed the clock and kick a game winning field goal. Not just us.

this is the problem

Who is to say? None of us know anymore what the NFL decides is a catch.

McD not challenging the Kincaid catch in the first half may come back to bite us. That catch would have put us in field goal range.

Nope. No one is getting seperation.

Im still fuming over this. You have them at the 2 yard line and you don’t stuff every hole?

That’s just horrible freaking defensive play calling. You run blitz like crazy there.

The successful drives … the line plays well. The non-successful drives … the line falls apart. Pretty simple.
