Brock gonna Brock

Senator Clay Davis · 01-14-2017, 08:15 PM

Might as well go to Savage right? Can't be any worse.

M*A*S*H 4077 · 01-14-2017, 08:21 PM

Jackson has been beyond atrocious tonight for Houston

Senator Clay Davis · 01-14-2017, 08:38 PM

And of course they waste Brock's one beautiful throw tonight.

Drake · 01-14-2017, 08:39 PM

Fuller has have that.

Senator Clay Davis · 01-14-2017, 08:48 PM

Texans would be tied if the two interceptions were converted into touchdowns and not field goals. Still time, but this game really has gone about as well as hoped for them, just not taking advantage of the chances.

Osweiller has a slow release, below average arm strength, and dreadful accuracy. I don't think he'd be a very good CFL QB.

calgarygeologist · 01-14-2017, 09:08 PM

Bennett is done.

Edit: I'm surprised he is on his feet on the sideline.

Strange Brew · 01-14-2017, 10:04 PM

Brock just not good enough. Things went about as well as they could have for Texans and they still don't cover.

You can't come back with him as your QB next year. Arm strength is good enough, but slow release, poor accuracy and overall bad decision making are fatal flaws.

Was tempted to try this is a smaller scale. But by the time you pay the currency conversion fee, fees for cashing out an online account. You won 35 for risking a grand. I'll put 100 on the steelers moneyline tomorrow to win 210.

I was tempted but chickened out...very few games where I think one team has zero chance but honestly, this is as close as it gets

Houston was only there because they play in a terrible division and Oakland started a 3 stringer who had never played a game in the NFL. Vs. the mother facking Patriots

Sylvanfan · 01-15-2017, 08:10 AM

So now it's 6 playoff games decided by at least 13 points. Might see two more today if Green Bay and Pittsburgh are hot early.

Senator Clay Davis · 01-15-2017, 08:51 AM

Houston probably would have won last night if they had a top 15 QB playing. As it is, they have a QB who ranks somewhere in the 75-90 range of best QBs in the NFL. And they have almost no hope of changing that situation because cutting Brock is basically a non-starter for cap reasons. Best hope for the Texans and their fans next year is they find another Dak in the draft, Savage turns out to be good, or you somehow trade Brock to a team with lots of cap space (and of course throw in 2-3 premium draft picks for their troubles) and go after Romo if he becomes a FA. But otherwise they're going to get JJ Watt back next year, probably put up one the best defenses ever, and repeat the last two postseasons again.

He's probably the least accurate NFL QB I've seen since Tebow. You could see in the replays where they were showing his slow release he was putting everything into his throws that weren't exactly fast balls.

Senator Clay Davis · 01-15-2017, 09:55 AM

Seriously, who was he throwing to here?

Machiavelli · 01-15-2017, 10:01 AM

So nervous.....

Really though, the Cowboys should win this game.

GB's secondary is so decimated heading into this one, Dez alone could score enough times to beat the Packers.

Unless the rookies on Dallas let the pressure of the post season get to them, I just don't see how GB scores enough to win without Jordy.

Though i predicted (hope for) a 1 pt GB win, I think the Cowboys win somewhat easily.

transplant99 · 01-15-2017, 11:54 AM

And of course one other thing the Pack have going for them..

ESPN Stats and Information

Aaron Rodgers hasn't thrown an interception since November 13th against the Titans. Since that interception, Rodgers has thrown 285 passes and 22 TD. His 22 TD passes without an interception is the second-longest single-season streak in NFL history, including the playoffs. Only Tom Brady in 2010 (26 TD) had a longer streak

Senator Clay Davis · 01-15-2017, 11:56 AM

Packers are the hardest team left to predict. They are very decimated in the secondary, don't have a great pass rush and can't run the ball. But they have the man, the only man, who can seemingly beat teams by himself. And he's in a groove right now. Kinda reminds me of Packers-Falcons in 2010, Falcons looked great all year, but we had questions aplenty if we could trust them (like Dallas), and then they went out and lost by 4 TDs.
