AFC Playoffs: Houston Texans at Kansas City Chiefs

TE Fells was questionable but just saw he is playing  
KWALL2 : 1/12/2020 12:26 pm : link
HOU really needs him there with the other TE out.

Fuller playing too. If he makes some big plays maybe they can hang in there.

If it was just Hopkins it’s a blow out.
I think KC can take it all...Beating Seattle in the SB

None of the "experts" thats for damn sure! Which for me is what makes this great. I will never forget all those pregame predictions through out our past 2 SB runs...did any of them ever pick us to win even one game? Love being the underdog and rooting for the dog if it isnt us.

I don’t know the idea of watching Tannehill in a Super Bowl is not that appealing to me, especially compared to Mahomes. I know Henry is a fun player but overall I would prefer the Chiefs.

Also the Chiefs are a classic franchise and the Titans look like an arena league team.

Pretty sure it was 24-7 but no matter, it was still a terrible decision. I'm still trying to figure out why he would call that and why Romo thought it was a great call.

Risk/reward was too great IMO.

Giantfan21 : 1/12/2020 4:53 pm : link
Texans got up early thanks to a blocked punt for a TD and then a muff punt by hill . Chiefs came back with a huge return to put them in FG range to start down 24-0, then stopped them on a fake punt in their own 30, then a fumble on the texans kickoff setting up a TD to make it 24-21.

I feel pretty good right now hiring a top ST coach

The week before, the Texans had manhandled the Patriots. Now it's halftime, and they're down 31-3 against the Broncos. I'm sure O'Brien was pissed off well before this exchange. So I don't fault him for that. If it was a player doing this, we'd be complimenting him on his passion.

id excuse a player before a coach. a coach is supposed to lead. not a good look when the face of the team is yelling at a drunk fan.

sorry, but its barely defensible. head coaches are supposed to maintain their composure and lead by example. this was a piss poor job of both duties. he is an asshole.

It all turned when O'Brien went all pussy and chose a FG over going for it on 4th and inches inside the 10 after they had been going up and down the field on them. You have to play aggressive vs a team with the firepower of KC. He handed them confidence at that point

JJ Watt is also regarded as an all-time great defensive player, so Houston doesn't have that excuse. Plus they have an above average QB in Deshaun Watson who should be able to keep up if the game becomes a shootout

and going on to lose by 20+ points


Mahomes, Hill, Williams all hurt for long stretches this year. When they are all on the field — with Kelce, Watkins etc — this team stands with the Martz Rams as one of the most varied/complete offensive teams in modern history.
I’d rather have a philosophy like the Chiefs

I think the Chiefs are gonna blow them out. It’s a bad matchup for the Titans.

Only thing that gives me pause is Vrabel vs Reid.

I couldn't stand O'Brien at psu. He did dumb stuff like that all the time and it bit them. He got a lot of fanfare for keeping the team together during that time, but few mentioned they hardly lost anyone and he made some of the worst personnel and coaching decisions I've ever seen. He continues to do so in Houston.The fake punt up 17 deep in your own territory is par for the course.

I'll take the Titans at +9. It's been 2 months since the Titans beat them and they have playing better than back then. I still think Chiefs win, but 9 points is a lot

Just brought the mo to chiefs now



Yup and just an idiotic take by Romo saying it was a great call to fake the punt.



I mean if it had succeeded it would have been a genius call there. You don't usually plan for a 3rd string safety making a shoe-string open-field tackle.



fuck that up 24 nothing. DONT HAND THEM BACK MOMENTUM. make them earn it. its a bad play win or lose...


I'm pretty sure it was not 24-0 at that point. It was either 24-7 or 24-14, but the point is the Chiefs had clearly grabbed the momentum at that point and Bill O'Brien was trying to reverse the momentum.

He clearly sensed the Chiefs were on a roll at that point and was trying to do something to quash the momentum. It came close to working that guy just made a spectacular tackle. But yeah, because it didn't work it look stupid as hell because it then added even moreso the KC momentum. You could see Bill O'Brien was nervous after that didn't work.
