Houston Texans’ opponents have ‘cracked the code’ against them | Pro Football Talk | NFL on NBC

1. Texans are just not that good. Stroud is solid, but everything needs to be perfect around him. This ain’t going to be their year. Last year they had an easy schedule

2. Their defense at times looks better than their offense, how do you lose with 5 interceptions? They play good defense against a low scoring team like KC in the playoffs, they could surprise a team.

3. League has film on Stroud . He needs to adjust and grow his game that’s all. Common thing in the NFL

4. texans need an o line…yikes

5. I hope Deco listens to you guys

6. I blamed the fans who were there who weren't loud enough… like really, y'all let Detroit 🥷 be louder than yall???🙄

7. Dear Florio : maybe wait more than 5 games to call an offensive coordinator a “Genius “. Having great players makes most coaches look good….. nvm

8. Sheesh, It is simple, the o-line has massively underperformed. Two well paid tackles and high draft pics on that line. CJ is totally out of rhythm. Give the Texans the Lions line, the would also have one of the top records in the league.

9. These clowns show more and more they dont really know football they know numbers. When you have an offense this bad and a OC that has been terrible all year you dont put the game on his hands

10. So the texans suck because they lost to the best team in the nfl why do i watch sports media florio sucks

11. Nobody will say it, but I will: we played the game better than anyone expected. The sports betting groups predicted a blowout win for the Lions! Despite the turnovers, it all came down to one crucial moment—the no-call on pass interference. That single decision changed the course of the game. They did whatever it took to make that happen. If Vegas is wrong, they lose credibility.

12. Don't play the NFC north.

13. That’s why I always tell people that Jordan love is better than cj stroud and Brock purdy

14. Texans fan here and you are EXACTLY right! I was watcing the game yelling at the TV for them to go for it on that 4th and 4. With Dell, Metchie, and Shultz all more than capable of making a catch for the 1st down. Slowick needs to go! Predictable offense, can't adjust to the defense, run plays to the same spot where you've been stopped countless number of times. Texans offense did nothing to help their defense. Texans fans are sick of this!

15. Is it they cracked a code, or the team has a lot of injuries 🤔. They are away a head of schedule. Remember two years ago they had the second pick of draft. The positive they are in a weak division and will win it so they will make the playoffs. Also, game management gets better over time.

16. other teams make halftime adjustments…Texans don't, thats the problem

17. The Texans are better at what they do than Florio and Simms are at what they do….obviously there's not a market for a show where NFL talking heads are critiqued so they get over, but the insight is thin with these Monday morning quarterbacks. Nothing is as bad though, as those ensemble pre game and halftime shows with a bunch of washed up fatazz chuckleheads in suits and sneakers yucking it up and taking turns making their banal "takes". Unwatchable.

18. Cracking the code = O-line sucks.

19. CJ is the next Dak Prescott just watch

20. Yall hit the point!

21. Another …miami dolphins…always excuses…

22. If the Texans suck what do that say about the Lions and the Packers both of those games the Texans should of won especially the Lions game everybody acting like the Lions was the better team last night when they wasn't mistakes conservative coaching missies PI made a difference in that game get off the Lions jock bro the Lions defense is not that good imagine if Nico Collins played he probably would of had 250 yards receiving and Tank Dell would of had 100 receiving yes the Texans lost the game but it showed me how the Lions can be beat stop the run and make Goff beat you

23. It should have been a blowout in the first half but we fail score as usual off TO's. SMH.

24. We’re frauds

25. Having so much of the offensive playbook revolve around Nico is a huge problem. Slowik needs to get back to the drawing board. The playcalls are terrible. The O-line was better in the pass game but regressed in the run game. Such a disappointing week.

26. Mike your analysis of the texans keep getting worse and worse smh

27. Texans offense in battle red look like rodeo clowns.

28. we’re getting exposed week after week which is sort of fortunate in its own right. we thought we were legit contenders and that we had it figured out but at least now we will know what we need to do this off season to fix these glaring issues. 2024 is over in my eyes gg

29. Texans are totally ON SCHEDULE, they sucked very recently (and their ownership still does) Their rookie QB and HC are developing well; keep building!

30. The problem is the defense get tired of keeping the offense in the game can’t move the chains

31. Everyone needs to relax! Lol we were a dumpster fire two years ago! We probably had the fastest rebuild in nfl history. lol give us some time!!

32. Fire Bobby Slowik

33. Our players are hurt, let us get Collins and Anderson back

34. I am glad how fast the organization has changed thank yall for the effort this wasn't easy now I know if everyone healthy anything is possible

35. Slowick sucks

36. They lost, but why are people in the comments acting like they didn’t steam roll Lions the whole first half?

37. Lmao cracked the code? 😂😂😂😂 the only thing that’s killing then is that sorry excuse of an OC.

38. The "code" is that Houston's coaching staff can't make adjustments.

39. The code is Bobby Slowick

40. Jerrod Johnson should get a chance calling plays

41. They could have punted it and held them or gone for the 4yards

42. Pass interference was missed to

43. Slowik is definitely a FRAUD

44. no Nico Collins, No Diggs,a Robert Woods who has lost it all and should be retired…CJ just has Tank Dell he can rely on

45. yeah they cracked the code for the texans with no nico collins were playing with 2nd string wide outs no true number ones only other team doing that are the saints and panthers what are theyre records ?

46. CJ Stroud needs a better offensive coordinator

47. Houston should have won that game by 3 TDs

48. Calling the afc south the worst division is nonsense lmao

49. Texans are very competitive and are still growing. All he had to do was throw the WIDE open td earlier

50. Tht how u know Mike doesn’t believe in the Vikings either. Bc we crushed the Texans and we were looking good. He’s saying they shd haven beaten us and we have a good record lol. We are not for real simple as tht
