    That's exactly what they paid Dupree 16 mil$ to do. Just sayin...

    Dupree had 1.5 sacks today, so it's not like that was all on him. Part of the problem was the Texans were allowed to get away with mugging Watt all afternoon.

    Hey Blast.

    Yes, his hands are of some concern as of now. Hopefully this issue is corrected soon, real soon. Given that, I like to balance out a "negative" with a "positive". Man this guy is elusive. He is shifty. Small frame in the sense like the person that can fit through a seam that most others could not. It is definitely a unique attribute. Now, again he has to get those hands to become "sure". Get it? "Sure-Handed". I crack myself up (smile).

    He’s the leading receiver on the team. He has a talent for getting open, he’ll be a top receiver in the league before long.

    Hope he is able to suit up next week.

    Watt was double-teamed a lot (and chipped more than once). He's getting the majority of the attention, and remains disruptive, plus he's being held and outright tackled on some plays.

    That was a no-brainer for the Texans for many reasons. One of them is Watt is the Steelers' best defender. The other is that the Texans' problems in pass protection the first two weeks were primarily on their right side. Tunsil, the left tackle, isn't the problem on that line.

    Hey Blast.


    Thank you for the statistical update. I did not know that. That is great. If he is out, and man I hope not, the good thing is like I have been stating for a while; we have soooo many "O" skill-player weapons. It will present more opportunities for....huh? Hey house's choice. They all are soooo freakin' good. I will go with Claypool and keep the hot-hand thing going with the Ebron. He is more of a WR in stature, in a sense. Man, I love McDonald. Like Hines Ward in the sense he just loves handing out punishment. He can make a five yard catch a highlight reel at any moment with his authoritative style of play. I LOVE IT!

    I cannot remember if it was you Blast. I put up so many posts lately. Whoever it was, I posted being a bit concerned regarding Fichtner being able to effectively, and creatively, "managing" all of these awesome "O" weapons. Whoever it was, I think you, good call about giving Fichtner some time to gradually get everyone involved and spreading it around. Yesterday was done very nicely. More to my liking (smile).

    I think we are just scratching the surface of our "O" potential. Ben is just getting back for a feel of things: The elbow, the guys he has played with before the injury and the new guys on board. I can't wait until this Offense really hits it stride! Personally, I think they have just begun and that is downright fearsome.

    Remember, all the talk from Ben back with AB, Bell, Bryant, J. James and more, about putting up thirty points a game? I do not think that any one on this team is AB or Bell talented. HOWEVER, we have way more weapons than during that era and a much better Defense. I will go out on a limb and dare say that 30-40 points per game is very feasible. We are nearing 30/game now and the "O" is just scratching the surface as I stated. Hey, why not. Remember "Perfection" is the goal (see below).

    Meh
    Maybe so, but I couldn’t care less what you think. In fact given your penchant for the sky is falling bs you should expect it

    Your disgusting comments are indicative of the person you are. Your problem not mine.
