  1. To crap the bed that hard after winning a division title. Same situation as Josh Allen without a Lamar, Burrow or Mahomes standing in the way to do this? Pitiful embarrassment. Big Ben's reaction throughout the night said it all.

  2. Damn and he has hell to look forward too supporting a orange kid diddler/supplier…

    Just bad luck all around for A A Ron the future grifter. Will he make it farve after football?? Lmao..

    Him and Nicki gonna make some beautiful light skin munchkins..😅

  3. You haven't been watching the games Texans backup QB is easily his equal. CJ had 1 great season and 2 good/ok ones. Texans are going to roll over the Patriots next week. DEFENSE.

  4. this has to be one of the most dominate defensive performances I have ever seen in a professional football game. Texans D absolutely destroyed the Steelers offense

  5. Everyone always ignores the fact that Houston is a dome team that probably hates playing outside in cold weather, even though they would never say it publicly. Sure, that should not be an excuse for 5 fumbles and other passes going through WRs’ hands, but it’s still a factor for a team from Texas that plays indoors. Go for a walk in 30 degree weather without any gloves and imagine if someone was also smashing your fingers and you were sliding your hands across the ground. Do I think that’s part of the reason CJ Stroud had 5 fumbles? Yes, it’s part of it. It’s also part of the reason their WRs dropped some passes they should’ve caught. It’s also part of the reason this Houston Offense played like crap in Playoff losses at Baltimore and Kansas City. Last night this Offense finally got that “cold weather Playoff game” monkey off their backs, so I EXPECT CJ Stroud to play much better next week. Maybe he should try practicing this week wearing gloves. If it snows on Sunday, Houston is screwed. 😅

  6. The weird part is that if it would have been Russell Wilson, they would have blamed it on Russell, Wilson, and they did not blame it on and Roger's. That's dumb.

  7. It's important to watch the games. Our offense couldn't do much of anything to start the season but the throughout our win streak we've run the ball very effectively and in some games dominated with the run. The stats won't show you that. Great defense and a run game will always lead to success. I'm banking CJ has 1 great performance in him and I'm hoping it's this Sunday

  8. CJ Stroud sucks as a QB. He keeps forcing the ball to Nico Collin. The OC needs to spread the ball around. The defense won the game for the Texans last night.
