Houston (-6.5) at NY Jets (12-15-18)

Recommended Posts

 4:30 EST....Kurt Menneffee, Nate Burleson, Steve Mariucci (really) and Melissa Stark on the NFL Network (and no place else)

50 degrees at the Mt Life Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey  ,... over/under at 41. 5

 

Deshaun (I was Pat Mahomes last year) Watson (269 of 402, 3,298 yards, 22 TDs, 9 INTs) will try to take hs team to the AFC South title with the help of All-pro WR DeAndre Hopkins (84 catches, 1,151 yards)\. Watson has one scary number. He's been sacked 46 times.

 

The Jets season heads for the cemetary with rookie QB  Sam (I'll be better in  2019) Darnold (175 of 313, 2,104 yards, 12 TDs, 15 INTs)

Jets broke a 6-game losing streak last week but they have just 68 rushing first downs all season so Darnold may be running from Houston's JJ Watt (12.5 sacks) all afternoon.

 

A Houston win gives them the AFC South title if the Colts and Tennessee both lose Sunday. A Jets win means about as much as  jets loss: Nothing.

Unless Santa shows up and brings all his elves, there will be plenty of empty seats.

 

6 1/2 is a lot on the road but its the Jets.  Houston had won nine ion a row until last week and they are 4-2 on the road. The over seems likely.

Jets within 16-15 mid 3rd quarter..

...did they just run the same double move pass that the Colts ran on Houston last week?

 

..and what's the kicking record for missed extra points in the same game??:scorebad:

Think they ran it against the same guy too lol

Houston has had the Football Gods on their side all year. Only against them a team could miss 2 extra points in a row. That is the most unreal crap I ever seen as far a team being lucky. They have won 3 or 4 games this season that were really lucky. It's amazing we beat them. Thank God Luck drew them offsides, had they got the ball back, Watson probably wouldve thrown a 75 yard hailmary for the win.

I am shocked it’s this close.

 

This game does mean a lot because if some miracle happens and the Texans would lose the last three games and we win the last three we win the division.

If the Texans lose and either lose next week or against Jacksonville, the Colts world win the Division by winning out.

Jets only down 1 going into the fourth. Cross your fingers

Jets will probably have 1st Goal at the 1 Yard line with a chance to win and fumble and JJ Watt will return it 99 Yards :funny: the way Houston pulls stuff out of their rear. Houston is going to win the Division anyway, we gave away that 1st game to them and that sealed it. I am more focused on getting the 6th seed because that is very probable. As long as we get in, it's all good.

Didn't someone write that he is guaranteeing a Texans Super Bowl win because their owner died?

    • Yeah... Richardson needs players who can separate and who can get open deep. IMO "give the inaccurate QB a contested catch receiver with large catch radius" is one of the tropes that hasn't proven to work well. Contested catches have about 50-55% success rate even with the best of contested catch receivers and with relatively accurate QBs... now if you think AR's accuracy is not good, drop that rate even more. The best way to give a relatively inaccurate QB better chance to complete passes is to give him a WR who separates and and who is open so the QB would have more of a margin for error to throw the ball a little behind or ahead or a little higher or lower than ideal. (we are not talking about uncatchable balls here... those will be uncatchable for anyone really). In that regard, one thing I would agree about is - we need WRs who have good hands and have good ball skills.   And this is ignoring that AR has indeed been pretty good with his accuracy on passes at intermediate and long range. His biggest problem coming into the league was the short stuff and he was already showing improvements in that deparment before he got injured.    And Worthy is the WR who created the most separation from anybody in this draft :   
    • Richardson  accuracy  on deep balls is his strength.  Hence why you pair an elite deep threat in worthy.
    • No.   You weren’t.   If you were the least bit sincere, we’d be having these conversations in private.  But you’ve repeatedly ignored my efforts to do that.  Your call.      Then you avoid me until I’m in an uncomfortable conversation with another poster.   You use that awkward moment as an excuse for you to come in with some sincere friendly advice.   The problem is, you’re neither sincere, nor friendly.  And you’ve been doing this for months now.  This is not new.   The pattern is clear and obvious.     And the shame of it all is that even with our different views on Ballard we have enough in common that we should be friendly.  Maybe not friends, but friendly.  You wouldn’t need to address me as “Sir.”    “Good deed going unpunished”.  You flatter yourself.     But your actions speak much louder than your words.   There’s no reason for me to trust you.  And here we are.  A real shame.
