[Goin Breakdown]

It doesn't matter if our offfese score or our special teams score. OIR DEFENSE IS AWEFUL and will give up the next drive. Efff it.

With the exception of some Josh magical games it’s been really difficult watching pedestrian QBs make downfield throws all game long while our MVP seems neutered 

Cuz our MVP QB doesn't always take what defense gives him this season.

Listen.  Mills isn't awful and has a lot of weaponry to work with AND it's Houston.

 

You just knew this game was going to be weird. 

Oh we knew the defense would break like a wet paper bag...

The defense is horrible.  None of the calls are going our way. Looks like another loss.  I’m going to bed.

No you aren’t. Stop

Wtf was Cam Lewis doing on that TD pass? He sold out on a curl route and the guy ran right past him. Why is he guessing there?

He's a practice squader on all the top 15 teams. We start him

Really, if not for some errant throws to wide open receivers with no pressure, the Texans would have 30 in the first half.

[TheFunPolice]

For crying out loud we're down 4

 

McDermott will make adjustments, offense will make some plays and we'll win. 

 

8-3. 1 game back of the great Drake Maye

Didn't I say that McDermott, anything short of AFC Title game, needs to be fired? and I got hated on for that

 

AFC title? We can’t even stop David Mills

[KOKBILLS]

So... I guess we're back to... This team is going nowhere with this Defense...

[Special K]

Almost 10 and its only halftime.....hate the late games.

[HurlyBurly51]

so much investment of resources on that side of the ball and this is what you have to show for it?!  Don't care about injury excuses either

Are we going to give up 40 points to freaking Mills?

If we tighten up we might

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

Tooooo predictable, Rush never hits home and Cover defenders are never in a good spot 

[MasterStrategist]

Gonna need to hold Houston to Fgs from here on out.

 

That 2 min drive was horrible

[Another Fan]

Why not have Allen chuck a Hail Mary? 

[Evansfan322]

Fire McDermott! This defense is horrible. Don’t care about the outcome

Sorry folks this team isn’t winning zip post season with this roster.

Maybe we will fall back in rankings for playoffs and not have to play Baltimore in the first round

[BigdaddyinOrlando]

Dam, so our head coach is a defensive guru, we need to hold them to a field goal in 1:43 to end the half against a backup QB, and he fails spectacularly!! As sadly as it is but, normally! Uughhh

Taron Johnson

Terrell Bernard

Greg Rousseau

Matt Milano

Not sure why, but all of these vets have regressed BADLY this year.

[Andy1]

Has there been a single penalty against Houston? Doesn’t seem like it.
