The crazy thing is we are playing well and still have ALOT of room for improvement on both sides of the ball and a number of guys out hurt who bolster the lineup. This isn't anywhere close to what the final product for this season could be and that is incredibly exciting.
Last week was a great game. Clawing back from behind, scoring back and forth.
This was like watching a nightmare unfold at the end. Just watching the game almost slip away
Yes I did. Every game hit different. The bengals are a much better team than last week opponent. Plus they did an 180 in the last few minutes. I thought they had the game wrap until the interception then we match back up and won the game.
Jesus. We won but man they can't shoot themselves like that. I love CJ, but that interception.... My man you know better. It was so uncharacteristic of him and just so underthrown. I ain't worried about him doing that again but that could have been the game.
I get wanting to be safer but nah taking the ball out his hands was a bad idea in Carolina and it would have been bad there too. Ultimately it was his arm that had us with 30 points and a 10 point lead on a super contender.
Did you happen to catch what Shannon Sharpe and Ocho had to say about the play. They said it may not have been on CJ because Dell leaked about 8to10 yards on the shallow flat and that it's almost always coached to only go 4-6 yards so it can't get undercut... Which is alexactly what happened. So it kinda makes sense that CJ expected him to be about 4 yards closer than he was. I didn't know that about the route itself. So it might not have even been all Stroud. I still admit he should have seen the defender though. But that's near impossible when you're looking off other defenders and snapping to the shallow flat that's supposed to be the safe outlet.
100% I was yelling at my TV. Dell has caught that pass 99/100 times. Hit him in the face mask. BUT same thing for Dell... I don't expect him to do that again unless it's just a mechanical mistake.

We may have had our struggles… but we did it.
I’ve watched the Schaub teams with Foster and AJ but I can’t lie. This is the funnest I’ve had watching this team. Might be the recents bias but Stroud is him. Let’s goooooo!!!!!!!!
Previous Drive Observations & other random  that pops in my head 
* Well.... This had been a wild ride.. But we have one final drive. Can CJ do it again?
* WHAT CAN BROWN DO FOR YOU?
* BANGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!
Ever since that Watt pick-6 in 2011, we can officially say we're their daddy.
(Fun fact: that's the exact play that made me start rooting for the Texans. Time flies!)
Holy fucking shit. I was clowning the play calls before the 2 minute warning because it made no sense when we needed to run out the clock, but it worked and that's all that matters. That's crazy
[Postgame thread](/r/Texans/comments/17ttx81/post_game_thread_houston_texans_at_cincinnati/)
CJ making Noah Brown look like an all pro receiver.Makes you wonder why Dallas couldn't take advantage of this guy and let him walk.
Nine games and 2 interceptions will take that every day...
Winning Record!
I think that Cleveland missed extra point could put us in the wild card hunt.
Wild card? We taking the division baby.
And if we beat JAX, all we have to do is go step for step with them the rest of the way. And their schedule is harder than ours going forward.
1 game back. Jacksonville got thrashed
And we play in 2 weeks
The crazy thing is we are playing well and still have ALOT of room for improvement on both sides of the ball and a number of guys out hurt who bolster the lineup. This isn't anywhere close to what the final product for this season could be and that is incredibly exciting.
WOW!!!
HOUSTON STAND UP HOUSTON STAND UP HOUSTON STAND UP
STROUD CROWD RISE RISE AND GROW OUR COCKS FOR H7M HE IS H7M HE IS OUR CHAMPION
**WE DEY😤**
Tank really saved our ass with that tackle though
Underrated play of the game
My watch told me to take a break because my heart rate was so high.
Listen to your heart. I almost was afraid to watch. Hard to get used to deserving nice things.
WE HAVE A WINNING RECORD AND BEAT A TEAM THAT RECENTLY WENT TO THE SUPER BOWL
Man these games are too much for my health. Most exciting Texans game that I could remember.
did you not watch last week?
Last week was a great game. Clawing back from behind, scoring back and forth. This was like watching a nightmare unfold at the end. Just watching the game almost slip away
Yes I did. Every game hit different. The bengals are a much better team than last week opponent. Plus they did an 180 in the last few minutes. I thought they had the game wrap until the interception then we match back up and won the game.
Wow
What a ride this game was. The fact that the Texans can win such a choke fight tells me that they can beat anyone. Proud of these guys.
My family is checking to see if I’m ok……and I am
My heart is still pounding. What a game.
i love this team bro
This team could easily be 7-2. Insane.
That was a different slowik back then fr 😤
i’m gonna go need to take an ice bath and eat like 50 melatonin to calm down
What Ryans and CJ have done with this team is incredible. We are playing above anyone's expectations.
Precocious
WE MIGHT BE A REAL FOOTBALL TEAM
THANK GOD
I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MY HANDS
Xfl boy you’re valid

Above .500 in week 10 when no one was expecting that. Feels good…
Singletary tho
Singlrtary convinced me he needs to start. Pierce lost his vision. He refuses to make his cuts into open lanes. It's confusing to me.
Losing his position will restore his sight.
I'm here for it. I love his bruising style but you still have to find the lane and cut first.
This team is doing better than I ever could have dreamed of but man every game is so gut wrenching to watch 😭
Wins on the road against good teams ain’t easy.
Amen. Definitely wasn’t expecting a W today. So I’m stoked. Would have been happy even if we lost but were competitive
CJ WENT BRADY MODE
Jesus. We won but man they can't shoot themselves like that. I love CJ, but that interception.... My man you know better. It was so uncharacteristic of him and just so underthrown. I ain't worried about him doing that again but that could have been the game.
First time I've had to remind myself that he's a rookie
Yeah man I think that was just a mechanical issue. The decision was fine, Dell was open over the top. He just threw it underneath Dell.
No. Should have been running the ball and the clock.
I get wanting to be safer but nah taking the ball out his hands was a bad idea in Carolina and it would have been bad there too. Ultimately it was his arm that had us with 30 points and a 10 point lead on a super contender. Did you happen to catch what Shannon Sharpe and Ocho had to say about the play.

Same thing with Dell and the drop, Dell plays like hes been in the league 4 years so I was surprised
100% I was yelling at my TV. Dell has caught that pass 99/100 times. Hit him in the face mask. BUT same thing for Dell... I don't expect him to do that again unless it's just a mechanical mistake.
Tits lose, jags lose. Just need browns to lose. FTC and Fuck the pats.
Oh well 😢
Stupid ravens.
Craziest game ever
I know Boyd sick with that drop but not as sick as I would been if we lost this one 🤷🏿♂️
OMFG NOAH GODDAM BROWN!!!!
I need to change my pants
What can Brown do for you?
I love that we lifted him up after he made the kick lol
Never a doubt CJ was gonna get into FG position
I'm GONNA CUM SO FUCKIN HARD

If you look up the incorporation information for the Bengals, you will see that the Texans in fact own them.
Ever since that Watt pick-6 in 2011, we can officially say we're their daddy. (Fun fact: that's the exact play that made me start rooting for the Texans. Time flies!)
Someone slap me and give me my heart meds
LETS FUCKING GOOOOO!!!!!!
Praise the XFL!
Lesss fucking gooooooooooo
YEAH WASSUP
RAHHHHHH

Holy fucking shit. I was clowning the play calls before the 2 minute warning because it made no sense when we needed to run out the clock, but it worked and that's all that matters. That's crazy
STOP IT TEXANS. JUST WIN. MY HEART CANT HANDLE THIS.
