NFL 2023/2024 Season

The Houston Texans enabled Deshaun Watson and tried to cover it up.

Now one of their minority owners, Javier Loya, is facing sexual assault charges.

Disturbing details emerge in case against Texans’ minority owner

If true, what happened was way outside of the control of the Texans, and the NFL. The big questions are who knew what when, why was it kept silent, & what actions are going to be taken.

Is it possible the NFL and team owners have a double standard ?

 

What did Mahommes do to PO his receivers?

I'm happy for the Lions, but the Chiefs receivers gave the game to them.

 

LETS GO BUFFALO!
There's one thing that sucks when your team gets good: They get a lot of prime time games.
I loved it when I could watch the Bills play every Sunday at 1 pm.
This year right off the bat we play on Monday night.
The game will probably end between 1130 and midnight.
Who has time for that on a workday?

 

The NFL forces the networks to carry Texans games . I'm surprised we don't get the games on replay at 3AM.

I'm actually looking forward this season. Hopefully the losses will at least be competitive games.

 

I've been there, and you have my sympathies.
Keep the faith.

 

I was hoping for more from the Texans , but I also root for Lamar Jackson & the Ravens .


The Eagles started hot, then tried their best to let the Patriots win. One good thing is I bet Belichick's head was about to explode.

 

Are the Giants in for a very long season? I hope the cowgirls aren't actually that good.

 

So far all you've missed(?) is Josh Allen giving the game away. And Rodgers getting hurt - ankle - on the Jets first drive.

4th Q, 13-13, 2 minute warning, Jets are in what should be easy FG range. Now Jets 16-13.

Late edit: What a crazy ending!!

The 50 yard FG that almost wasn't.
Thec4 and out.
The run back.
The accidental? intentional? leg whip.
The pathetic wussy push tackle effort by the Bills #8.

I'm sorry, but the Bills deserved to lose (at least their offense did).

 

Horrible.
I was away on a work assignment with long hours so I went to bed at halftime.
We were up 13-3, Rodgers was out of the game; what could possibly go wrong?
I felt sick when I saw the score Tuesday morning.

 

Damn. The Vikings are 0-2 with both games being extremely close; I can hear Cousins saying "Gosh darn it!."

Somebody on YouTube made the comment Cousins is right at home in Minnesota.

 

OK my faith in Josh Allen has been restored, at least for one week.
He obviously can play smart football. Why are there weeks where he looks like a stupid rookie for an entire game?

 

The Texans gave us some hope at about the halfway point left in the fourth quarter...then returned to playing like the Texans.

I send healing mojo to Athony Richardson and Ryan Kelly. I can only imagine the final score if they had played the entire game.

Bad football weekend for me:
Cougars lose big, played like shit.
Texans lose big, at least Stroud looks good on paper (garbage time stats are misleading, FGs aren't as good as TDs).
Longhorns & Aggies win big.

Hopefully game one was just jitters, & Allen is permanently back to playing well.

It was nice to see Belichick about to explode...again. The replay of the first down call that was overturned sure looked too close for a reversal, but there are many people who believe the Patriots are overdue for some payback for years of Protect the Patriots officiating. Exaggerated? Definitely. True? Definitely.

 

The Texans have company, some very unexpected, at 0-2. The better 0-2 teams will snap out of it to have good seasons, the Texans won't.

I've always felt the first four games don't always show the future for the next 13 games, unless you're talking about really bad teams and expectations destroyed by devastating injuries. The contenders will get their shit together, the pretenders will be exposed.


Something interesting caught my eye. It seems Deshaun Watson isn't handling pressure very well.

NFL will evaluate and discuss "all plays" involving Deshaun Watson infractions on Tuesday

 

WTH?

The Texans offensive line is missing most of the strarters, yet they have a 14-0 lead.

Will the Jags come back?
Will the Texans D hold?
