00:00But the focus to me really is on the Houston Texans.
00:03Open up the season playing bad football, embarrassing football.
00:06Sort of righted the ship, played a couple bad football teams, beat up.
00:08Okay, he's had offense back.
00:10You saw last night it struggled.
00:11And also now with Nico Collins, four catches, 27 yards, got a concussion.
00:15He's going to be up the next week.
00:16I don't know where you go because you don't have the explosive running game.
00:20Like C.J. Stroud is your leading rusher last night with 25 yards.
00:23Congratulations.
00:24Nick Chubb looks like he's running with a, I don't know, a tractor on his back here.
00:28Can barely get up and down and make moves.
00:31And then there's Woody Marks, 10 carries, 15 yards last night.
00:34Without Nico Collins, this team feels like it's going to be a disaster on offense.
00:39It just does.
00:41Yeah, and I don't, you're right, Donnie.
00:43I don't think it's going to get any better anytime soon.
00:46Because there were a couple of spots in that game last night.
00:49Third and one, four and one, fourth and one.
00:53Where they just don't trust the offensive line to protect C.J. Stroud.
00:57And give him an opportunity to drop back and do anything.
01:01I mean, they ran it into the teeth of the defense back-to-back times, Donnie.
01:05And turned the ball over on downs.
01:06They couldn't get one yard running the ball.
01:09And they didn't even want to try to send C.J. Stroud back in order to try to pass the ball.
01:15That's how little they trust Stroud and this offensive line here.
01:19It's not a good situation here.
01:21And I don't know that it gets any better because it's a shame.
01:23Because that defense is pretty good of Houston.
01:26But what difference does it make?
01:27They're always on the field.
01:29Sooner or later, they're all going to start breaking down.
01:32Yeah, you take a look at the first couple games of the season.
01:34Lose 14-9 to the Rams.
01:35Bad offensive output.
01:37You lose 20-19 from the Buccaneers.
01:39Average output.
01:4017-10.
01:41Terrible offensive output for the Jaguars.
01:43Then you get the 26-0 game over the Titans.
01:45Which, quite frankly, that game was 6-0 at the break.
01:47Wasn't a great performance.
01:48But you got a couple breaks at the end of the game on some turnovers.
01:50Then you laid out the Ravens, which seems like everybody does at that point.
01:54Then you go back into a shell last night.
01:56Now, hear me out on this.
01:57Because if you're healthy, this is the move you're supposed to make for the Houston Texans, Joe.
02:01Four out of the next five games are at home, which includes the next three.
02:0449ers, Broncos, and Jaguars.
02:06But if we're down Nico Collins and playing bad football, I think the Niners beat them this week.
02:10The Broncos certainly will give them a run for the money.
02:12And so will the Jacksonville Jaguars.
02:14Then you go on the road and take on the Titans, which probably should be a win regardless.
02:17But then you come back home and take on the Buffalo Bills.
02:19This doesn't have that, hey, we're going to get it together season, specifically when you're usually saying the winner of the division has to go to the playoffs.
