Wrapping up Week 12 across the league, the Texans suffer a heartbreaking loss yesterday as they fall to Will Levis and the Tennessee Titans with a final score of 32-27. Unable to quite figure out what may be the issue regarding second half adjustments, the Titans squeeze by the Texans in the final minutes of the game in regards to a missed field goal by Ka'imi that would have tied the game. Following that drive, the Texans received another chance at evening the score or to take the lead ahead of the Titans but, suffered a safety in the final minute of the game therefore resulting in a horrific and upsetting end to the game. Now putting their record to a staggering 7-5 and looking ahead to the rest of the schedule, the Texans seem to be in a bit of a bind as the postseason approaches and the difficulty of their schedule not getting any lighter as the weeks roll on. Looking to the weeks ahead and the teams the Texans are up against, can we expect the Texans to reach ten wins this season?

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Sean Salisbury Show continues Tony, good morning.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Good morning, guys. Went to bed last night completely happy,
woke up this morning completely happy. No change whatsoever in
my in my body temperature. This is all pretty predictable, guys.
Football is like basketball, hockey, contact sports. You gotta have
time and you gotta have space. Ce j Streud's the
(00:31):
same quarterback he was last year, just a little bit
more experienced. He doesn't have any time to throw. You
go back to the twenty fourteen draft, the number one
pick in the draft of Jenavian Clowney. We took him
no more overall, Khalil Mick was sitting at five and
Jake Matthews went. It went six to Atlanta. Could you
imagine if we had Jake Matthews all this time at
(00:52):
left tackle, we'dn't have to worry about this. We'd have
to spend all this money on this guy and jumps off.
How many pre snap penalties is I bet he leads
the world and pre staff penalties. You know, talent is
one thing, but my goodness, man, the Houston halfs they
get everything half right. You got to you got a
rookie quarterback almost killed for two years.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
The first two years of this team.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
You're taking that money and just taking a couple of
veteran quarterbacks instead of saying, hey, so who wants the job?
It's going to be for a couple of years, you know,
just build the football team. What do you think about that?
I don't know. Maybe I'm when's baseball start.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Appreciate it, Tony, Tony, I'm I'm with you on a
lot of it. I it is. It's, you know, get
it right and looking back and hindsight, having a guy
like Jake Matthews or one of those guys up front,
and there's no doubt, but it's still you have to
have that guy under center. And while I agree with
you that I think that c. J. Stroud's special and
going to do some phenomenal things in this league, he's
(01:50):
not the same this year. And it's not just I
mean and it's the same. Listen, he made some throws
under the rest that he always makes it are phenomenal.
The guys is special, but he's missing the easy throw
this year and that may be collateral damage from the constant,
you know, beat down that he's been taken. So his
mind's moving a little quicker, but it is different this
(02:12):
year he has not played as well. And it's and
I'm talking about unclean pocket throws. Some of the decisions
and stuff he would not miss, he's missed, and not
all the time. It's just the things that we saw
him make on a regular basis last year. He's missed
some of those throws. And while some guys will miss,
guys like him usually don't miss those and that's what
(02:32):
made him took him to another level especial. So it
is different. But I also think it's a cumulative effect
and collateral damage of what's going on upfront. I think
that's part of it. But he's got to get him.
So when he puts his foot in the ground and
his base and everything's right, he's throwing on time, guy special,
But he's missed a few throws where you're like, he
doesn't miss that throw right, and he.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Has simple ones.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Yep.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
It's crazy to see, but you know, it is what
it is. Let's talk to John John, what's happening.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
Hey, well, good old brand. First of all, happy things,
giving to your families to hope you have a good one.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Now, let's talk a little football, tay, thank you.
Speaker 5 (03:08):
Let's talk a little football now, sure you know this,
but you got four five seconds to get rid of
that ballot.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Two point seven five three max. If you have three seconds,
you should be in the pro bow From a tiny
ball snap, the average in the league is going to
be between like two five, two five five and two seven.
That's that's it. You're not You ain't getting five seconds.
You get five seconds. You should be in the Hall
of Fame. You should be in the Hall of famers.
Go to my point, the punt is adjustment. Now, sure
you know that you gotta make adjustment. I'll give you
(03:37):
a prayer for the Xample got the seven games Detetion won.
They won with Joe Nixon having over one hundred yards
close to one hundred yards.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
He heavily contributed to them success and winning. And you
have to realize from year to year to look at
the Barkley over there for really deputs. You don't think,
uh uh, you don't think hurt like to throw that football. Yeah,
but he know he got he know his bail car
is giving that ball to Barkley gonna open everything else up.
(04:06):
Now hust to have no power with running the football.
So if you're a coach and you get your your
quarterback is struggling, and you've really been your.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Bail car back.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
There need to touch that.
Speaker 5 (04:18):
Ball at least twenty five thirty times in order to
loosen everything up and bring them backs up where you
can get that one on one coverage. Number one, he
hold the ball too long. Number two he don't. He
don't throw the ball away. And number three, he don't
have the foot speed to get out of the harms way.
You know he got judging hers. He's he's not little
Mark Jackson.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
He's not just Allen.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
He's not none of that. But he could flame the
ball when he got time.
Speaker 5 (04:42):
But one thing about it. In the NFL, they's not
gonna let you have no time.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
You can't hold the.
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Ball because ain't no offensive line gonna stop nobody. Then,
like you said, Son, you only got two and a
half seconds, get rid of the ball. You gotta do.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Something with it.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Throw it away, run with make something happen. So I said,
running for more.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
Appreciate it, John, love our guy. John hadn't heard from
him a couple of weeks. Is that is Joe Nixon
related to Richard Nixon?
Speaker 3 (05:14):
My man was into it. Hey, he's passionate. They the
problem with yesterday. Those are the days when you have
to mix and matches those because they could not run
the ball yesterday twenty two yards for jos Tennessee. Did
a nice job controlling the million game. Yep, made enough
big place. He's still his his understanding of the pocket
and running into trouble. The fact that they won and
(05:36):
he his pocket presence is awfully yet so bad. But
he sure made some great throws. That's what Levis does.
He like, oh my gosh, this guy's physical talent is
off the charts. But then you see the frustration of
staring down an interception, holding the ball and running right
into a sack. He did that a bunch, but he
made enough big place at the right time to hang. Well,
(05:59):
it really thirty on the board because the two points
is on the on the safe. That's why you drafted Levis.
But you'd still I guarantee you Brian Callan is going
to be in those medium saying dude, we got to
cut down on this stuff. Your presence in the pocket
has to have better feel. Yep, all that, and they
still won.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
Yeah, yeah, eight sacks, but it's alarming to me.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
It is very alarming, very weekend and week out. It's alarming. Holly,
good morning, Good morning, guys.
Speaker 5 (06:31):
Uh.
Speaker 6 (06:31):
First of all, I want you want to say, I
call a couple of weeks ago, I don't see that
this team has any I called it, oh, a couple
of weeks ago. But they don't have any chemistry. I
don't see that on either side of the ball. They
don't play as a team. I don't feel like they
have each other's back. And by looking at the stretch
of the schedule, guys, I don't know what you guys
think that. I think this team is going to be
hard pressed to get the ten wins. And I'll hang
(06:53):
up and listen and y'all have a great holiday.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Week you as well too, Holly, Thank you, Happy Thanksgiving.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Holly. You know what, there's seven right now? Correct? Yes,
seven and four? The way they're playing reeks of two
and three down the stretch here, yeah, seven three? It
reeks of it right, there's seven and five? Would I
say four?
Speaker 5 (07:13):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Yesterday it was fifth loss? Yes, so with five games
to go because it was seventeen. Yes, So you get
to two and three, that's nine wins and you're more
than likely still going.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
To win the division. Yeah, because the division sucks.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Well, you're in the tournament, but man, you're not gonna
like the way you play because right now you can't
and know how trouble going into Tennessee and beating them
if this continues.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Where's this Jacksonville game at Jacksonville?
Speaker 3 (07:39):
That's right, because they got him here the first time around, right, Yeah,
And one thing Jacksonville will be playing for is desperation
and a coach's job.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Yeah, Doug Peterson's job is on the line.
Speaker 3 (07:48):
It sure seems that way, doesn't it. Yeah, I and
Holly's right. Ten wins may be tough at the playing
like this, they're not winning ten games.
Speaker 4 (07:59):
Yeah, at this rate, they'll be lucky to go to
and three because they showed you yesterday that they could
lose to a Jacksonville team. Right, they showed you yesterday
that they could go to Tennessee the last game of
the season after that span of ten days with three
games in it and lose.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
Yeah, Kansas City will be tough in that building. Baltimore
will be tough.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
Well, look at look what Miami did their offense.
Speaker 3 (08:21):
Yesterday to it throws on time. You're in trouble. Yeah,
and that's how you this team. The truth is Miami
throws on time about as well as anybody in the league.
But if they have to hold it, they're in trouble,
right And that's how that's exactly the once the strength
of Mike McDaniels, and then the truth is that Mike
McDaniel being able to dial up stuff to get it
out and they've got phenomenal team speed. I know we're
(08:43):
looking ahead, but that's how you're going to offset the
two guys on the edge. Everything that Miami does is
towards getting it out on time. They don't expect because two,
if he has to take three or four hitches and
hold it, that's not his strength, right, He didn't have
the arm A CJ strungth They're going to be doing
everything at a quick game and misdirection when you get
to them, and then we autoficiently know what Baltimore and
Kansas City can bring to the table. You're gonna have
(09:04):
to play a lot better to beat them, just like
you would have for sixty minutes. Detroit didn't play well
at all in the first half and they still found
a way. The Texans are a ways off right now.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Yeah, they are.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
With execution there's some talent, but their executions are ways off.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:17):
CJ Stroud has had some lack of execution over the
last couple of weeks. He spoke about holding himself accountable
for the loss. We'll hear that audio and discussed next.
Also continue to take your call seven point three two
point two five seven ninety right here on the shown
