00:00To get into 34 to 10 is the final Texans take this one as expected, but we unpacked the

00:09fact that we discussed the spread.

00:11We discussed the total.

00:12We discussed what players were going to be more impactful.

00:14You called a Joe Mixon game.

00:16It was very much a Joe Mixon game.

00:18So final thoughts or overall thoughts, I should say, of this matchup.

00:22No, I want to say that we got a little collectively, we got a lot of things right on the pregame

00:28show.

00:29You know, personally, I wasn't super high on, you know, John Metchie.

00:32I just didn't expect him to be involved.

00:34He was involved.

00:35Credit to you for that one.

00:36I expected Nico Collins to be a little bit more involved and he was like a good amount.

00:42He had that pass that they challenged.

00:44It could have been another 20 or 22 yards in the first play of the game, which could

00:48have been 70 yards and a touchdown, which would have been awesome for all the props.

00:52That wasn't the case.

00:53But you know, a lot of the things we said in the pregame show, you know, kind of came

00:57through that, you know, we saw CJ Stroud hit the under on his TD passing attempt.

01:01We saw Joe Mixon have a big game.

01:03And I said on the pregame show that Joe Mixon was going to go for 20 plus carries and hit

01:08the century mark, which what is exactly the thing that he did 20 carries and 109 yards

01:13on the ground.

01:14I also said if the Texans cover this game, it is not going to be close.

01:18I said it wouldn't be right at that seven or eight number.

01:21I said they would win by 14 plus and that's exactly what they did.

01:25So a lot of things went well for the Texans.

01:28There are some clear issues that they have.

01:31I think they still need to continue to protect CJ Stroud.

01:33He needs to continue to look downfield and a lot of their offense still needs to be worked

01:37out because 30 inches and you are not running the ball with Joe Mixon.

01:43And then you like, what are we doing there?

01:45Like run the ball with Joe Mixon on 30 inches.

01:48That's one thing.

01:49They just need to get some things figured out.

01:50It is a positive step for the Texans.

01:53It is not perfect.

01:54And again, as I mentioned in the pregame show, over the next few weeks, they play the Titans

01:58and the Jags.

01:59This is where they start to build the offense and solidify their spot for the playoffs.

02:04Yeah, you definitely called that one in terms of saying if the Texans get out ahead, it's

02:08not going to be a close call here and they were able to pull that off.
