I’ve Got Some BAD NEWS For Texans Fans… The 49ers Game Plan Could Screw The Texans In Week 8
I got bad news for Houston Texans fans. I talked to our 49ers host Chase Senior and we got some stuff we got to worry about as the 49ers roll into town this Sunday noon. 49ers Texans and you know the 49ers they’ve been on somewhat of a little bit of a roll. Five and two on the season so far even with all the injuries that they’ve had. I’m going to tell you how they’ve gotten to that point, what the Texans got to worry about, and how they can solve those problems before San Francisco plays up against your Houston Texans in week eight. Now, before we get going, Texans, they’re wearing the H-Town Alternate jerseys on Sunday and a lot of mixed reviews from my co-workers here at Chat Sports. So, I want to hear from you. Do you like the H-Town Alternates? Give me your grade for these jerseys down in the comments section. A, B, C, D, or F. Do you like the H-Town alternate jerseys? Be honest with me. Let me know down in the comments section as this is what you’ll see the Texans rocking this Sunday. All right, Houston, we have a problem. Number one is going to be the problem against the Blitz. And I know what you’re probably thinking as you look at the injury report, as you look at the depth chart for the San Francisco 49ers. You’re like, Chugs, you know, they’re without Bosa. Bryce Huff, he’s out this week as well, so we’re good. Not so fast, sweetheart. The 49ers, they’re going to send pressure. And the fact that they don’t have their marquee edge rushers, I don’t know if that’s better or worse for the Houston Texans because without them out there, they’re going to send more stunts. They’re going to send more exotic blitzes. And that’s what they’ve done the past three or four weeks with their defensive coordinator in Robert Salah. They’ve done a much better job at getting after it and making sure that, you know, their pressures, they’re not easily IDed and they’re sending those stunts. And if I know one thing about this Texans offense, this Texans offensive line, they have been basura trash going up against stunts. This was Monday Night Football. And I know it’s easy. You could take, oh, you just took a screenshot from a random play, this, that, or the other. I don’t care how you parse it. Look at what’s going on right here. You have three Texans players guarding one person as there is a free edge rusher coming right up the middle for CJ Shroud. I mean, come on. That is awful. And if this is any any indication on how the Texans are going to try to block the stunts that the 49ers are going to bring this Sunday, um it’s going to be another long game day for your Houston Texans because as I look at the Texans offensive line, the interior left tackle Arante Ursery, everybody, they’ve had so much trouble picking up stunts this year. And it probably doesn’t help that you keep on rotating in your left guards with Juice Grugs because I know I have him in as the starter, but I mean he wasn’t starting up against the Seattle Seahawks that he only played in 43% of the snaps on that Monday night football game up against the Seattle Seahawks. So with the key pass rushers out and you don’t even know who the left guard’s going to be on any given play, the communication has been trash. the Texans just one-on-one up against other defensive lines has been god awful. So, yeah, they don’t have their premier guys in Bosa. They don’t have a premier guy in Bryce Huff who’s been one of the better pass rushers so far in the NFL this year, but I think that lends it more into the 49ers, you know, kind of realm of we don’t know who they’re going to send. We don’t know how many guys they’re going to send. And Robert Salah has done a fantastic job of really hiding his blitzes and making sure opposing quarterbacks don’t know what’s coming. And that is one of the major weaknesses for the Houston Texans this year. So Houston, we have a problem. That problem is Robert Salah and the fact that they’re going to send a ton of blitzes CJ Shroud’s way. And that’s been his biggest problem, the Texans offense’s biggest problem this season so far. Coming up, I have more problems that Houston will face up against the San Francisco 49ers because there’s a couple of them. Uh Kyle Shanahan being one of them, one of the best play callers in the NFL. Before I tell you about those problems that the Texans could face this Sunday, I don’t have a problem with my daily fantasy sports app because I use Prize Picks, the sponsor of today’s program.

Price offers Vinmo, Apple Pay, Mastercard, and more for quick and easy deposits into your account this football season. And speaking of this Sunday’s matchup, this is the lineup that I have going for this week. CJ Strad, this is a new feature called the stack. So you can do multiple projections for a singular player. CJ Shroud, I have more in the passing yards, less on the rushing yards. Jaylen Null, give me the more on his rushing and receiving touchdowns at 0.5. And then M. Jones, longest completion of 34.5. Texans, they got sliced and diced this past week. I don’t think that’ll happen this week. I think they’re going to tighten up. Demo Ryan’s defensive coordinator, Matt Burke. They’re going to make sure no chunk plays this week. They’re gonna be the less on the longest completion for M. Jones. use my lineup or why don’t you go make your own because it’s not just football. Also, basketball is here. I know baseball’s coming to an end, but hockeyy’s here as well. And you can play all of those with our friends over at Prize Picks.

It’s good to be right. Second reason why Houston, we might have a problem. The 49ers know Demo Ryan on multiple levels. One, you know, De Mo Ryan was working directly under Robert Salah for multiple seasons. Demo Ryan was the linebacker coach. Robert Salah the DC before he ended up taking the New York Jets job. And then Demo Ryan got the promotion to defensive coordinator. Speaking of that, who was the head coach the whole time that Demet Ryan was there? Oh, yeah. That was one Kyle Shanahan. So, you could say they know each other pretty well. And I know what you’re probably thinking. Well, Jeremy, it works both ways. And you’re right, it does work both ways. Diko, he does have some knowledge of the Kyle Shanahan offense and possibly how to stop it, but at the same time, it’s almost like a uh Obi-Wan Anakin kind of faceoff, right? It’s, you know, it’s the master versus the padawan with Kyle Shanahan up against Dico Ryan because, you know, Demo Ryan widely known as one of the best defensive coordinators in the NFL. But I would say Kyle Shanahan, it’s the big three when you think of offensive play callers in the NFL. In my opinion, Kyle Shanahan, Andy Reid, Shawn McVey, those are the three guys. When you’re like, who are the best play callers in the NFL? I think it is obviously those three. Some other guys definitely could be on that list. You’re looking at like a Kevin Oonnell from the Minnesota Vikings, a Lafleur with the Green Bay Packers. Of course, those guys are good as well. But I think the big three that you look at, Kyle Shanahan, Andy Reid, and you look at um who did I Shawn McVey. So, the fact that, you know, the Texans, they struggled on offense, Robert Salah, you know, he knows Dico Ryan pretty well. I think maybe the fact that you have two guys in Salah and Shanahan that really know Demo that might be a factor this weekend as the 49ers come into down. And the last reason why we have a problem might notice on the injury report for the uh 49ers they have Brock Party still listed and we don’t know whether or not he’s going to be good to go this coming Sunday. But the thing is M. Jones has actually been pretty good over the past three games that he started. He actually leads the NFL in passing yards at just over,400, six touchdowns, four interceptions on the year, a completion percentage of 67.0%. You know, he’s played really well for this 49ers offense, and you know, the quarterback whisperer in Kyle Shanahan. So, even though they don’t have Brock Pury, they’re still playing really well with M. Jones. And yeah, not only M. Jones, you’re also getting a vintage CMC this year. 132 carries, 465 yards on the ground, three touchdowns. But that’s just on the ground. Christian McCaffrey, he’s been awesome all year long. And now, not only on the ground, Christian McAffrey, he’s also been a major threat out of the backfield catching the football this year alone. Let’s see, he’s got 53 receptions for 516 yards. So, he has been the ultimate threat for this 49ers offense. And the Texans, their linebacking core, you know, safeties, whoever matches up against CMC, they’re going to have a tough time stopping Christian McAffrey this coming Sunday. So, all those things, plus the Texans, they’re on the ropes. They’re two and four. They’re going to be a hungry football team, and they need to come out with their hair on fire. All those reasons are why I think it’s some bad news that the 49ers are rolling into town. But at the same time, I’m going to end the video with this, a little silver lining. The Texans, they are are on the ropes right now. It’s like a junkyard dog. When you have them backed into the corner, you can do two things. You can lay down and you can take it or you get up and fight with all your might. And I hope the Texans are that junkyard dog that comes out and fights with their hair on fire because if not, it’s going to be an ugly Sunday. And a lot of Texans fans are going to give up on the season. And I don’t hope that’s the case. I hope the Texans come out, they prove us all wrong. They punch the 49ers in the mouth and they get a win and get on the right track to possibly trying to get back to 500 as they drop to two and four up against the Seahawks. I think this is a very winnable game up against the 49ers. There are some problems. 49ers, they’re a good team. They’re 5-2 right now, but the Texans, they can still win this ball game, and I expect Demo Ryan to have his boys ready to go on Sunday.

Grade these alternate jerseys: A, B, C, D or F
The bad news is Lil CJ is the starting QB
I love the alternate jerseys. They look bad ass. It's just the helmet for me. I wish they would have put the Texans logo with the blue outline instead of the H. It looks more like an arena/XFL football team helmet. 🤘🤘🤘
Yo! Here we go! Texans lose by 21! None of these young players want to be here anymore and the Kaimi Fairbairn (the best offensive player on the team) just got shit on by his coach. Yo! Watch this game if you're into slowing down while passing highspeed automobile accidents!
I think that H town alternate jersey are dope = A1
Never give up on the Texans if you give up the only choice is the Cowboys and you know how that’s going. CJ and the Texans have been leading the south for a couple years now the AFC south. Nick Caserio is better than Jerry Jones hands-down if you don’t want your jersey, I’ll keep it instead of you burning and make it a dump so fire with with a CJ style jersey
A
You be with the click bait bad
Texans have a lot of injuries cause caserio is an overhyped GM
Lol, every team that plays the Texans should have the same game plan. Just blitz, the O-line can’t stop a thing
The Texans are the problem. All the way around. We are awful, 4-13.
At this point I’m just watching because I’m a fan. Nothing more. They’re trash, we failed at our rebuild.
A
1. I am a niner fan.
2. I cannot stack up our individual collection of players to a 5/2 record. That is to say we should be 2/5.
3. There are a few factors no one is speaking to.
They are: we have rookies and new starters TRYING to make a name and a job for themselves. They are HUNGRY.
We have many league top vets WITHOUT a ring AND…their remIning years to get one are vanishing before their eyes. THEY are hungry and PROUD.
IN ADDITION: The SB is at OUR HOUSE this year. You think we want two foreign teams in OUR locker rooms???
Last but not last…we may have as a group…THE best collection of coaches in the entire league. Who might i addhave not won a ring. This game against HOU worries me a bit…but they all have. We are not unlike the 1980 Olympics hockey team against the Russians. Not the best players..but we play like a team loke no other
A
2-5 incoming 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dude we still don’t have a offense
We still have no o line and a five year old running the offense we aren’t winning anything homie
The season is over
We're playing/ and lookin like trash..we should be excited about how were playing ,not how good a uniform looks like smh 😢
I remember when Kyle Shanahan wasn’t good enough to be considered as a hire here. Oof.
A D3 college could shut down the Texans offense they have worse play calling then a 7 year old on madden rookie mode
