00:00All right, let's go to the Houston Texans here.
00:03They have a major issue with the running back position to start the season.
00:05So you see our graphic there says C.J. Stroud, Joe Mixon.
00:09But I'm not willing to put an X on Joe Mixon, but I definitely would put one line there.
00:14I mean, it doesn't look like this guy's ready for the season.
00:16So is it really Nick Chubb? Is that the direction we're going here?
00:19Nico Collins, Jaden Higgins, Christian Kirk.
00:22They really don't have anything great at tight end.
00:25And Collins, to me, at wide receiver seven, may be the one to target.
00:29I thought he was so good two years ago.
00:31And I know he had some injury issues last year and missed time.
00:34I think there's some bounce back here for Houston.
00:36They're just one of those teams that flies under the radar.
00:39But running back very much in question because the reliable one appears to be Chubb at this point.
00:45Yeah, that's a little scary.
00:46I wish the best for Nick Chubb.
00:48He's had a couple of major injuries now.
00:50He'll never be that same player again.
00:51My biggest problem here is no matter what you think, Stroud is going to rebound or not.
00:55He wasn't very good last year, but hey, fine.
00:57Maybe he comes back.
00:58But, Craig, that offensive line is not good.
01:00It was putrid last year, and they got ready to trade a tonsil to Washington here.
01:04So it certainly hasn't gotten better here.
01:06I have all sorts of doubts here.
01:07I mean, they have plenty of talent here.
01:09Collins, Higgins, they have the tanked out if he's ready to play here.
01:12They should be able to throw the football up and down the field.
01:14But if he's got no time to throw, I think he's going to end up being that guy who sees the rust when he should be seeing it.
01:19He's going to be looking for it, waiting to get hit, rather than looking down the field, looking for his open wide receivers here.
01:23So I have lots of worries about Houston.
01:25I don't think they're a playoff team with the exception of they play in the AFC South.
01:30You know, no one's a playoff team in Indianapolis, Jacksonville, Tennessee.
01:33None of them are very good teams here.
01:35So they play in the right division here, but I worry about this offense quite a bit.
01:39What I'm trying to say is Stroud, he'll be drafted as probably a top 10 quarterback, but I don't want him.
01:44You know, Collins, I love, but I would prefer all the other top wide receivers over him here.
01:48He'll have big games here, but I think it's going to be very inconsistent because that offensive line is not going to hold up versus better pass rushing teams.
01:55Yeah, and they've sort of, you know, shuttled through the Hopkins and Tank Dells and a number of different wide receivers that just simply haven't worked out next to Collins.
02:04And we'll see if one of the two players emerges, if Stroud has a big year, then one of the other wide receivers on Houston could potentially become an impact player.
