The offensive line is a major problem but they did not call screens for negative yards over and over.Max Power said:For me it's hard to divorce Slowik from the offensive line to determine which is the bigger issue. Last year we had a worse line but they played above their projected ability and this year they've been bad to the point where it's probably the worst line Stroud has played behind. Improving the line is priority number one. We need guys who can pass block and give Stroud the time to do his job.The Beef01 said:Per @TruMediaSports, the Texans are averaging 8.9 yards to go on 3rd down today. On the season, they're at 7.93 — the 2nd-highest mark in the league.

They've faced 3rd and 7+ on 113 plays this season, most in the league.
It's just an unsustainable way to play offense.
Fire Slowik!

I don't talk football on Twitter whatsoever but I've seen more random posts talking about how the refs were bailing out the chiefs and how obvious and ridiculous it was than I would have expected.

If that had happened to Mahomes, the NFL would have dissolved the Texans' franchiseTexaggie7nine said:
Reports seem to be saying dislocated kneecap. Is that what they call it when your knee joint completly comes apart?
I really thought they would run him a lot, especially after Dell's injury to give CJ a breather.W said:
another storyline...Mixon at 28 years old has worn down
looking back...
30 carries vs. the Colts in the opener; 25 carries vs. the Packers, 25 vs. the Colts again, 25 vs. the Lions, and 24 vs. the Jets
all between week 1 and week 10 of the season
Yes. They are worried about arterial and nerve damage. I'd bet tank is out for 2025. Given Diggs is unsigned, it would not surprise me if they traded for a Garrett Wilson type.Texaggie7nine said:

The situation in BAL is definitely interesting b/c he was pretty productive for a bad Carolina offense into October and then just turned into a zero in Baltimore. Feels like there's plenty of blame to go around there and a big part of it is on the BAL side since they clearly made a bad read on a trade and/or missed an existing problem with someone on the BAL offensive staff.
Just bizarre.
