So you're saying in the NFL you either get a QB or you fold your franchise because it's pointless to play? I agree.

Good. It would be pointless to get a QB unless he's a good one....cause there's plenty of doggy 1st round QB's in the league.... Your committing at least a couple of years to finding out what you got..... What Watson is doing is rare as hen's teeth...

You don't have to fold your franchise, you can just sit back and watch 80,000 people a week stream in regardless of the product you offer.

I'm just glad that Deshaun is going to continue my unrivaled run of spectacular failure in predicting who will and who will not be a good NFL quarterback. And I was laughing my ass off when Tom "Cement Shoes" Savage came in and immediately chiseled himself into a statue sack.

The news around the league gets better and better. Cowboys lose, Pats lose, Jags lose. Titans lose. Colts going to lose. I don't even know who they're playing but they're going to lose.

A really outstanding performance today by the offense in particular, what a satisfying win.

Are you really defending the Texans' handling of the QB position in the last 4 years? Really? Could you possibly be so Pollyanna to convince yourself that Ryan Fitzpatrick, Ryan Mallett, Brian Hoyer, Brandon Weeden, Brock Osweiller, and Tom Savage was a reasonable way to spend the last 3 years?

"Doesn't matter, Brian. AFC South champs 2 years in a row, Brian...."

You make it sound like Deshaun Watson's grow on trees....

That defense is no joke...

The offense love to throw the ball...

Sounds like the makings of a tough game for us...

Our back end is still very suspect and our front seven can get okie doked with creative playcalling...

I hope OBrien can bring it because this one may be a shoot out...

Yes, we get to watch them (KC) on MNF tomorrow. I assume OB will be watching.....

Chiefs rated in the top 3 in most the power rankings. Only undefeated team left at 3-0.... Just hope the Texans don't have a let-down game from such a nice win - can't let the newspapers/chatter go to their heads.....

I'll be pulling for the Chiefs tonight and hope they win by a large margin, remain unbeaten, and therefor perhaps come into NRG next Sunday night fat, sassy, and confidant of their invincability.
