00:00Sticking with running back and rushing yards, we've got the Texans that took out a top Indianapolis

00:09team that's looking pretty good. We know that they have a solid defense. This went toe-to-toe

00:1329-7 or 29-27 was the victory for the Texans, but we've got to talk about the fact that they

00:19needed to establish a run game. It was very inconsistent last year. You got Mixon coming

00:22in with 159 rushing yards and one tutty. Where do you navigate this Texans team? Because they're

00:28living up to the hype in my brain. Yeah, this is awesome. As someone who has a Texans future

00:34ticket on the Super Bowl and the AFC conference, I am beyond excited. What I said about the Texans

00:41multiple times over the past few days is they have an awesome offense and there are going to

00:45be times where we're simply wrong about them. I was on Tank Dell this week. He didn't score,

00:50and Diggs did, and Collins had some huge yards. The following week, it could be the reverse and

00:55Tank Dell is the one scoring it, and it's not going to be Collins. But yes, a massive, massive

00:59ground game from Joe Mixon. He's going to be the dominant force every week. We should be looking,

01:05as long as the number is appropriate, CJ Stroud over on yards, CJ Stroud over on attempts, and

01:11potentially Mixon over on attempts. Massive stuff from the Texans offense. They should be one of the

01:15top five scoring offenses, realistically. On the other side for the Colts, Anthony Richardson,

01:21obviously incredible touchdown pass to Alec Pierce, but Richardson only went 9 of 19 overall

01:26in the game. Very inefficient, also very low volume. That should be increasing as the season

01:30goes on. I think we can look to Richardson touchdown props. I would also look to continue

01:36to look to overs on yards. He had two long passes to Adonai Mitchell that were incomplete, but they

01:42were long 30-40 yard passes, and they just fell a little bit incomplete. So if you can reel in

01:46the accuracy, he has the consistency underneath with Michael Pittman, and then these long deep

01:51shots to Pierce, Mitchell, and Doolin, and that is the spot we want to end Josh Downs once he

01:55comes back. The Colts wide receiver room is one we want to be paying attention to moving forward.
