Texans 2023

“How the hell did Beck get the ball?” says the sideline

“Just looked up and saw some space and started hauling ass, and it worked out all right,” Beck said. “Sometimes that’s just how it goes. Gotta make a play.” – Andrew Beck on his kickoff return

From the random factoid department:

With kick return TD in win over Jaguars, Texans’ Andrew Beck became heaviest player with kickoff return of 50-plus yards (255 pounds), first FB to hit 20+ mph as ball-carrier since 2016

Much has been made of Taylor Swift attending the Chiefs game. Looks like she got the full VIP tour.

Not exactly Taylor Swift, but a breakdown of Stroud’s performance on Sunday:

CJ Stroud Week 3 Analysis - YouTube

So having Texans homecoming and honoring J.J. Watt for the game against the Steelers is a pretty serious PR fuckup by the Texans.

Maybe JJ wanted TJ to be there for it?

It’s also his mom’s birthday

Maybe. But if not, you’d have thought they’ve have done it for a game where the stands were not completely packed with opposing fans.

I just clicked on the score and don’t understand what is happening.

They’ve played quite well. We’ll see if they can keep it up in the second half.

The Steelers did not run a play in Texans territory in the 1st half

This game was unexpectedly awesome.

What are you guys going to do if you do not have the Texans to bitch about?

I’ll find something, don’t worry.

Here in Texas, there’s always the weather

That was the best Texans win in a very long time. Stroud missed a few throws, but man he is running this offense. And where did that Oline come from? 100+ yards on the ground, 1 sack? Outstanding.

No sacks, 2nd week in a row against 2 very good defensive fronts, with a 3rd string O-line.

I can’t explain it but I like it
