00:00
We go to Houston next the Texans close as a very slight home favorite against the Buffalo Bills
00:06
and in the opening half it was all Houston. Buffalo does rally though to try to make it a
00:13
game. In late Buffalo had its opportunities. The Texans though prevail courtesy of a 59-yard
00:21
game-winning field goal from Kaimi Fairbairn as time expires. Houston victorious 23-20.
00:29
They cover for the first time this year as a slight point and a half favorite at home in H-Town.
00:35
In the Texans DRS improved to 4-1. Buffalo two consecutive L's now falling to 3-2.
00:42
Let's start with the Buffalo Bills. That's back-to-back weeks where we were least
00:46
not impressed I should say with their offensive output and also Shakir Down
00:50
who's been really good this year out of the slot. They weren't able to make that up. You take a look
00:54
at Curtis Samuel and thank God I didn't buy into the narrative. Sometimes Ben you know you read
00:57
the tea leaves like hey this guy's going to take over this weekend he's really looking good or
01:01
somebody's got to make up for an injured player there. Curtis Samuel is going to take over that
01:05
slot position from Khalil Shakir and he gets one target no catches yesterday. So I was so close to
01:10
going like oh like 28-29 yards that should be easy for him. Now let's get back to the Buffalo
01:14
Bills offense. Josh Allen 9 of 30. What is this back in his Wyoming days in the snowstorm 131
01:21
pass yards and one touchdown pass. Cook was decent on the ground at 20 for 82 but that's not good
01:25
enough to win anywhere. Case number two did you watch the end of this football game and I say this
01:30
ad nauseum sometimes Ben. I watch things play out and as a head football coach we don't necessarily
01:36
call the defense you don't necessarily call the offense. All your job is as a CEA coach CEO head
01:42
coach excuse me to call fourth down plays let the coordinators know like what sort of scheme you want
01:46
hey dial up the defense here on offense I want you to run some clock. The fact that they threw
01:51
three straight passes inside their five yard line when the other team had three timeouts left and
01:56
also I understand they're trying to be aggressive and you got to get a first down but let's play it
02:00
back forward. If you watched previously it looked like Houston was going to end the game with a long
02:04
field goal. Stroud was in the pocket got heated up and the correct call was made for intentional
02:08
grounding. Also with the intentional grounding you have the choice as a defense there to get the 10
02:13
second runoff. What was he thinking? He was going to get the football back inside his own 20 yard
02:18
line with like 15 or 20 seconds left and they're going to throw three passes get out the midfield
02:22
and kick a field goal. They should have let that time run off and went to overtime. They didn't do
02:26
it. That is a terrible head coaching job by Sean McDermott yesterday. It wasn't the end-all be-all
02:31
because you have to say a full 60 minutes to correct things. That was terrible. He directly
02:36
impacted the game so his team would lose late. You can't have that Ben.
