The Texans Defense Is A Problem & Make Other Teams Look TERRIBLE | Pat McAfee Show
Number one storyline coming out of yesterday, a prime time problem, the Texans defense. If they’re playing in your stadium, you’re going to be booing your team by middle of second quarter, maybe even beginning of second quarter, depending upon how the first quarter goes. They are a problem. This Houston Texans defense is very, very good at seemingly everything. We talk about big athletic dudes around a quarterback all the time. They got that back end stingy. TR has a huge game here. I mean, you’re talking about they came into Indianapolis and just shut us down completely. I I mean, and you want to boo just because they’re so bored. It’s like it’s at a game. I would like to see my team do something good. Well, your defense is doing cool. Cool. I’d like to see the offense do something against Houston Texans. I don’t know if your offense is going to do much good things. I I honestly don’t think that is going to be happening. And the Chiefs just so happen to be the most recent victim. Now, on that note, couple big time drops by the Kansas City Chiefs and some big time moments where they could still be the Chiefs today. But now the entire conversation is wait a minute the Chiefs are dead. Their dynasty’s dead. It’s like Alex Smith said in the pregame, you talked about Alex Smith earlier. I thought he did a great job. We all watched leading end of the college football playoff. Alex Smith was saying a lot of things. I think he said the Houston Texans are a better football team than the Kansas Chiefs. And I think a lot of people were saying like, “Hey, that’s a hot take. That’s a hot take.” I I don’t think you’ve been watching the Houston Texans. If CJ Stroud and the offense can do anything, which they were able to do last night, this defense is going to have them in every game and they can’t be on TV because the home team is going to be getting booed because of no matter how great they are, this Houston Texans team is going to make it look effortless seemingly on the defensive side. Well, and they’re the definition of, oh, they started 0 and3, this team stinks. We don’t have to think about them for the rest of the season. And then boom, halfway through the year, they’re playing their best football. Like you look at the rest of their schedule, too. They got the Cardinals, the Raiders, the Chargers, and the Colts. they can easily run the table and win their division. Like we’re talking about a team that wasn’t in the playoff picture, actually legitimately was below the seven seed up until right now the entire year. And now they might end up hosting another playoff game. And they’ve won playoff games the last two years. You know, CJ Strad’s rookie year in his second year, he never really had a slump. Now, he got banged up and that stinks. But when you have a defense like this and then you have an offense that has two rookie wide receivers that kind of have to find their way, they found their way. Straoud is back. Their defense isn’t just good. It’s the possibly the greatest defense in the history of football. I mean, it’s amazing to watch, but again, to your point, to the to the headlines point, stop putting them in in prime time because it stinks for the other team and for people watching who aren’t Texans. Yeah, it’s going to be it’s going to be a slow football game when the Houston Texans defense is on the field. Unless CJ Strad runs it up. This is from Dustin Paige. # I don’t want to overreact. But the Texans are going to the Super Bowl. Our defense is on a generational run. Straoud and the boys are finally starting to get hot. Making plays when it matters. They score 20, we win. Name one team in the AFC who wants to play us. The answer is none. Amen. It’s literally what we were just talking about. I agree with what you’re saying. We’re big fans of the Texans around here. And Cacerio should be taking a victory lap maybe, you know, for what he’s been able to do. They make some interesting moves. Fire the OC whenever things are going well. Move on from Stfan Diggs. Get him out of here. Tonsel. Yeah, Tonsel. See you later. We’re going to take some picks back in that. They make some moves that make you wonder if they’re going to be okay. He’s got to be sitting there looking at his team going, I think we can play with anybody strictly because we can keep anybody under 14 points. And that’s an absurd thing to be able to do in modern NFL. I mean, you can make the argument that the greatest draft in the history of football is them taking Strat at two and then trading back up at three and taking Will Anderson. Like, those two guys have completely flipped their entire franchise. Good for the Texans, man. Also, it won’t I mean, we talked about it a little bit during it. Their defense is unbelievable. They owe a massive amount of credit to Doug Mills. Like, if they go if they go one and two or don’t win any of the game, like then they’re dead and we’re not talking about any of this. Like, he helped keep their season afloat. Good for the Texans. You know, not too long ago, they were the dumpster fire that we were talking about. Oh, yeah. Like, would you take the Browns over the Texans? Absolutely. A couple years ago, Texans were in trouble four or five years ago. Now, seemingly potentially on a Super Bowl run, that’d be crazy.

STROUD HOUSE
Davis?
GO TEXANS
Doug mills lol
Highlight a fringe playoff team but won't say anything about the #1 seed in the afc
Texans remind me of my Sooners. Meh to bad offense and an elite defense that allows the offense to do just enough to win.
Annnnnd Julian went against the Texans!! Both Nick and Nick ?? C'mon man!!!! He said he a Mahomie!! HaHa!! Ya wrong!! Ya wrong just for being an ex Pat Julian wtf!!!! Five in a row!!!!! Go Texans!!!! Best D in the League!!!!
thank you for being literally the only person on the entire ESPN media network to even acknowledge the name of the team that the Chiefs played against
Texans defence is the Kill Zone
LAMO!!! Jags only give up a league 70ish yrds a game on the ground. Jags offence with j. Meyers and BTJ not dropping balls and with our running game. Oh please your not even sniffing the Ravens Def back in the day. Jags will be in AFC championship game bank on it!!!!
Keep being a rebel Pat… Go Texans…
Houston's problem is their offense. The offensive line and the QB suck…. but they defense is great.
you Shpuldnt say AMEN when’s its not about JESUS and with out praying
That random lost all his credibility when he said “Doug mills” can’t even do research prior to the show
University of Alabama…please show the purse to DeMeco. Its time to bring him home
The Texans are underdogs. I’ve been a fan since 02. We will always be underdogs.
Chiefs WRs with 7 drops. Insanely poor performance
Finally a media that actually talks about the Texans who won the game and not the Chiefs. Thank you guys!!
Thank you for showing love to the Texans Pat🔴🔵⚪️
The Texans are trash.
I'm no Genius….but AFC getting a Super Bowl this year! Jags, Texans and maybe the Pats too are a PROBLEM
Denver just played them and won…..next
I'm amazed that they've managed to reverse the damage that Bill O'Brien did to the team so quickly. I was sure that it would take a decade to reverse.
Texans defense wasn't a problem for JSN and the Seahawks.
Texans also have the tiebreakers, over some really good AFC teams!
CJ and General Mills will both kill you.
Doug Mills was so clutch
Houston Texans 🤘 ☄️ ☄️☄️☄️☄️
They dropped passes due to the yips the Texans D gave them
The chiefs aint good this year bottomline lol
So lets pump the brakes on the hype.
If the Texans win the division, they could be the 3 seed because the NFC North.
The drops were because they were throwing to the guy who went limp earlier in the quarter. That guy did not want to catch the ball after that hit.
》-Stroud Head–>
Bulls on parade??
CJ Stroud Texans fan for life!!! 🎉🎉🎉 congratulations beating the Kansas City Chefs 20-10
Stroud Town, is Houston Texans,
It’s absolutely disgusting how no media what so ever talked about the Texans winning at all. It was all about the chiefs. This is why nobody likes espn anymore
I think this game got the monkey off the Texans back, they beat Baltimore & kc 2 teams that had their number. They've proven they can win a cold weather game something they're going to have to do NE & Denver. The Raven's won a Superbowl with an average offense and a great D.
I'm so excited
I would say the Seahawks defence is better than the Texans right now
