    So you're saying $87.5M would've bought us another win? Just kidding but Demps alone probably wins us yesterday's game. Safety play was abysmal.

    Just think of it this way: if in the offseason I said you could trade two first round picks and a heartwrenching loss to the Pats for a 22yo franchise QB that you could build around for the next decade, would you take it?

    Because I sure as hell would. JJ Watt has been the most valuable defensive player three times and he has never come as close in one game to affecting the outcome as Watson did yesterday.

    Umm. Are you sure about that? JJ used to be an offensive weapon at one point LOL.

    Just because I point something out doesn't mean I'm crying or bent out of shape by the loss.

    It's a freaking GAME.

    Watt has taken over and won us games before.

    Isn't that the man who lived in a trash can but was also a medicine woman?

    Oops. You're right. I should be ashamed as a father of two.

    Lost in all the kneeling, clock management, Clowney, DW4 hubbub
    Ka'imi Fairbairn is off to a great start.

    Let's see if he continues and is clutch.

    Bruce Ellington looks like he might be pretty good if he can stay healthy.

    We need to try him or Fuller on kickoff/punt returns this week. Erving gives us pretty much nothing. Good field position can take a ton of pressure off of DW4. Erving catches the ball runs 15 yards and just falls.

    Yup. We are way better off taking the touchback if the ball is kicked anywhere into the end zone, hell let it bounce into it if not. Ervin is averaging 18 yards on returns, that's a 7 yard loss vs a touchback.
