The Texans are a disaster

Or, at the very least when your team is coming off of winning the division the year before you ride Hopkins in his last year and either Franchise or let him go after the year and get a draft pick, and spend the money on another quality player. With the Titans looking like the class of the division and Frank Reich working with young talent the Texans are in a conundrum. Watt isn't getting younger, and Watson will get clobbered behind that O'Line. Should they sign A.B.?

Should they sign Terrelle Pryor? Big WR + Running QB. And cheap.

No. This could ruin them, but I think they have just as good a chance of clawing back in.

They scored 3 freaking TDs against the yinz in the first half and proceeded to get shut out in the second half. That’s disastrous for us.

I will lay that at the coaches feet.

I don't see anything great about their defense at all. They've allowed 95 points through 3 games.

If you get run over every single game at the LOS, you're going to lose a lot, especially with how spotty the offense is. They face some great running teams and I don't see them beating any of them, which includes the Titans twice, the Browns, the Patriots, and the Packers. I don't see them finishing any higher than 7-9.

The Texans need to get rid of BoB and hire a package GM/head coach pair, maybe a pair that's worked together before?

They've got nothing to lose at this point and gotta save their season

I think that 25+ teams could well be 0-3 with the same schedule

Tell that to Gary Kubiak after his 10-6, 12-4 seasons. One lost season getting him fired before the end of the year, one in which he had a stroke, lost Arian Foster for the season, and had Matt Schaub as his QB. I don't think McNair is really all that sentimental.

Kubiak missed the postseason in each of his first 5 years there and was kept

Texans work out Earl Thomas :

https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...t-earl-thomas/

" The 31-year-old Thomas was once considered among the best defensive players in the league, but there seems to be a disconnect right now between how much he thinks he should be paid and how much NFL teams are willing to pay him. The Texans are at least taking a look to see what kind of shape Thomas is in, which may be a first step toward Thomas getting back into the league. "
