The Giants offense that just rolled us has been terrible for 2 weeks. I was hoping we could get well in this game, but I guess that's how the Giants look at us.

3 false starts in a half at home. And then Watson runs around and holds the ball for 10 seconds before getting crushed on a 3rd down sack. And he's way out of the pocket when he gets sacked. You have to throw the ball away at some point. We're not seeing any growth in his willingness to let a play go.

OBrien must have a short memory...

The Oline sucks...pocket passing is a no go...

Outside of Fuller none of the receivers can create separation...
Every team presses our receivers without any respect...

There is no such thing as NFL football without pocket passing.

O'Brien looks like he's already lost the locker room, but calling pocket passes are not one of the dozen reasons he looks dumb right now.

JJ Watt guessing and jumping up field was great when he was so athletic he ran around blocks and made plays. Now that he isn't that athletic he just runs himself out of plays and leaves us to be gouged.

There is so much wrong with this team it is hard to know where to start.

I enjoy watching Texans DL cover Giants receivers. That's always a good time.

I am referring to the traditional drop back pocket passer. Deshaun Watson does not have the experience nor the offensive line to drop back and go through his reads...

Roll outs, play fakes and even a little more TE involvment in the passing game would help.

So, football success CAN exist without the traditional pocket passer...

No it can't. You can go play action all day long (and we have). But on 3rd and long you have to be able to throw the ball from the pocket. Deshaun Watson can do that. In fact as I'm typing he did exactly that with a 30 yard rope down the seam. He's not a gimmick QB and when he fails on basic football plays, it's not because we should be running nothing but non-traditional offense.

Let's just be clear. The Giants are TERRIBLE.

I haven't felt this way watching the Texans since the dark days of David Carr - that everyone else, even the shit teams, are playing NFL football but the Texans appear to be playing another sport entirely and it's hard to say just what it is. It's like watching five year olds play soccer, they just don't demonstrate any real understanding of what the objective of the game is.

The Giants are beating us with all these wild creative routes. Their guys keep turning in and going over the middle!

Texans somehow sneak in a FG right before the half. Fairbairn hits a 28-yarder.

Giants 20, Texans 6

Halftime.
