  2. Deploy Cover 3 with a deep safety over the top to bracket Nico Collins and Tank Dell, who thrive on verticals but struggle vs. disciplined zones (Texans WRs drop 12% catchable deep balls).�� Slot cornerman Jon Jones shadows Dell in the nickel package, using pattern-matching to erase crossing routes that fuel Houston's YAC game.� underneath defenders crowd short zones, forcing 3rd-and-mediums where Stroud's completion drops to 55%.

  10. Every coach and every player has a part to play in every game, including the one coming up… They will be well informed and prepared to win this game! This coaching staff and these players have learned and show us what they’re capable of…… No matter who we’re playing🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

  11. We have to prepare for everything. They are coming with that pressure. Campbell can’t get pushed around and the rest of the o-line to protect maye. Just have to be prepared

  19. as a Texans fan, goodluck Pats! hope to have a good game. great season for you all, looking forward to the matchup.

    i think Drake will need to use his legs.
    the Texans offense has a lot of plays we haven’t used all year on purpose so expect all of downfield shots and 1st down tricks.

    should be a good one! cheers.

  20. Step the defense up and #1 pressure up the middle. Stroud can’t handle pressure and is prone to throw a pick or fumble. Don’t give him time keep him rattled and he will constantly make mistakes! WE ALL WE HOT WE ALL WE NEED

  21. It's all about execution! You can have the greatest game plan but you must execute at all positions to be successful! Winners are consistant, Losers are lucky!

  22. Okay coach this Texans defense are wild dogs nothing domesticated about them ..! Let's go two TE set a lot with two RB's in the back field to add extra protection for Drake. It's a must to establish a run game the backs have to hit the hole fast and hard no studder stepping..! We have two rookies on the OL it will be a tough task dealing with the Texans front four they will blitz a great deal so the two back formation is important and the backs should be able to see their LB's if they come up or come on a blitz it should be open in the middle the RB should release to the opening an easy dump off, no screen plays their defense is too fast… It would be very nice if the WR's can beat man to man coverage!!! PATS, LET'S DO THIS!!! 😎

  24. I should become a beat reporter, same damn questions for 19 weeks. The occasional good one from Reiss and others, but the majority is garbage. Basically pick a player and ask Vrabel how he feels about their development lol

  28. i love the pats and i want them to win but looking at the Texans defense there is no way the O line Drake Pats going to win. O Line bunch of rookies and 1 old dude then you have drake second year and we all have seen him flustered down and out. there is so much courage that anyone can have running from that defense a play here and there and that is about from Drake. pats loose 23 10

  31. I Bet that the titans hate letting him go. he has taken his team a long way, i have a lot of respect for this team. Im a little bit worried about this game. Just hope that we come on top. TEXANS SWARM GO TEXANS

  32. Why is Mike Reiss always such a professional? I would be so sloppy after all those years 😆 I'd be like, "Mike, (audible belch) how the hell are ya? What uhhhh do you think about this pass rush, I mean sweet sassy molassy It looks terrifying … any uhhh thoughts?"
