They have a great young qb and a great young head coach. If they watch what they are doing, they could be a monster in a couple years.

Very young team with studs on both sides of the ball, they were down several players yesterday with injury and still pulled out a W.

Their defense isn't great but don't give them them ball needing a score to win with 2 mins left

They're not great but DeMeco has these guys on D playing way above their heads and flying all over the field. They're solid enough.

Texans and Jags both have a lot of talent they’ve accumulated. Should be some battles for the next few years.

They need a few more pieces on the interior of both lines, but they’re on the right track for sure. The offense has some young weapons and DeMeco is looking like a great hire for them

Gotta keep Stroud from going to those H-Town massage parlors.

Do NFL teams not have trainers qualified to give good deep tissue massages for its athletes like university athletic staffs do? That might have kept Watson from needing to seek such medical attention elsewhere.

It would help their defense if Stingley can stay healthy and reach his potential

Would be absolutely hysterical if Stroud got caught getting consensual happy endings from IG masseuses.

Probably not but they’ve got a great rookie QB on a rookie deal. Their window is wide open for the next 3-4 years.

No, but they obviously have the potential to beat anyone on any given day. The rest of their schedule is relatively weak. This road game at Cincy was a tougher game than any other one they have left. 3 straight home games coming up. They very well could be in the playoffs this year. They have the Browns Christmas Eve, but that is a home game for them thankfully. Browns have a nasty defense, but I still think this road game in Cincy will go down as a tougher game.

If they make the playoffs, which would be a huge success story for them in this regime's first year, I'm not sure they can make a deep AFC run.

Still premature for sure but they should be a playoff team in 24 if not this year.

Houston’s next five games are vs AZ, JAX, DEN, NYJ, and TEN.

They could go on a run here

They could also lose all of those games. They did get beat by the panthers

Seeing as the responded to that loss to Carolina by beating Tampa and then the Bengals on the road, barring an injury to Stroud I’ll say there’s zero chance they lose all 5. Probably won’t win all 5 either but better chance of that than losing them. 3-2 would be good, 4-1 they would be in great shape

Demeco shot up the coaching talent pool quickly for a reason. He’s been exceptional at everything he does involving football and is very level headed. If the Texans owner can keep himself from fricking things up, Houston will be good very soon.

That wasn’t Watson’s problem. He wanted happy endings not medical attention.

I think his status as a beloved and respected player with the franchise will keep Tommy Boy McNair in line especially with winning this early.
