Saturday Divisional Round Games

[gmb1]

We will have our hands full with Houston next year.

If they can keep Slowik then absolutely

CJ STROUD is why you draft a qb high

On the other hand Bryce Young is why drafting a QB high is a big risk.

It tells us we were short on linebackers.

Sure that is all it was
keep peddling the kool aid

Ask the Jets.

It is a crap shoot. Only one out of three first RD QBs become top ten

 

[cowboyblue22]

coaching sure makes a huge difference in a team how they play and whether they win or lose

 

[KJJ]

Ask the Jets.

There’s a lot of teams you can ask about the risk in drafting a QB high.

 

[stilltheguru]

Only way Texans win is if stroud plays like an mvp. They don't have enough on defense to lead the way

Bingo and have no trust in FM.

I still don't know how his size didn't scare off teams till at least the second round. No way would I have took him before that

 

[Shinaoi]

I don’t know who the Texans GM is but he did a fantastic job rebuilding that team in a hurry

 

[KJJ]

Yes! If Dak had the Texans OC, we would be in the Super Bowl!

He needs the Texans defense that showed up in the first half.

 

[Motorola]

So far, an outstanding start IMO to divisional round action for the playoffs.
Texans defense prepared to keep QB Jackson under wraps.
Ravens defense making it hard for rookie QB Stroud to duplicate his success from a week ago.
HOU penalties --- OLine didn’t prepare for the fan noise?
Has the feel that an untimely turnover (or two) will be the deciding factor(s).

 

[fivetwos]

Familiar feeling….

Im often surprised when we get beat in the playoffs, then I watch the rest of the tournament and I’m like…”oh right, that’s why.”

These two teams are flying all over on defense. We aren’t anything close. Forcing bad QBs to throw picks when playing from behind isn’t all that impressive, and I now realize there isn’t anything all that special about Dan Quinn. He isn’t going to take meh players and turn it into something great. Most can’t.

Well….let’s see what the third DC in Mikes five years can do.

Maybe he will want SHORT armed corners and we will draft a few of those.

 

[Chuck 54]

Hey, didn't you know rebuilds take 4 years or more according to some on this board

I get your point. Houston still needs work in the secondary, but their coach 7nderstood that you have nothing if you can’t defend the run. The fact that he changed that aspect in one year makes me very jealous.

 

[cowboyblue22]

you got to have good players but great coaching can make good players look great

 

[rambo2]

There’s a lot of teams you can ask about the risk in drafting a QB high.

Probably all of the teams that have never won the Super Bowl.

 

[BoyzBlaster]

On the other hand Bryce Young is why drafting a QB high is a big risk.

There are no guarantees. That's part of the deal.

 

[Nova]

I never post during games, usually, fun

Yeah these neutral game threads are kind of the best ones on CZ.

They also did a great job of destroying it a few years ago.
