Houston has a problem post game

Allen, Payne, and Sweat are a real problem right now for opposing offenses.

If those 3 stay healthy we will make a playoff push

So, let's assume this is preseason and you are told that your team will start out 2-4, with wins over lowly Jax and Chicago, and losses to Detroit, Philly, Dallas, and Tennessee. And then a change in QB gives you wins over Green Bay, Indy, Philly, and Houston with a tough winnable loss to the 8-1 Vikings, resulting in av 6-5 record and playoff contention. And even though the QB at the helm was not a first-round draft choice (like the 2-4 QB making $25+MM/year), or any draft choice, for that matter, would you want to move off the current Qb at $4.75MM for TWO years or look for a costly upgrade because the virtue-signaling optics are better. You guys are freaking NEVER happy. You are getting the deal of the century with Heinicke, a COVID QB, but the KAREN in you cannot be happy because it is unconventional and organic, and against "expert analysis".
Enjoy the ride with a kid that plays hard for the right reasons. The defense is awesome, the TE's and receivers are awesome, and the QB knows who butters his bread, and that is #17. If one were to ask McLaurin with whom he wants to play, CW never gave him enough chances. Heinicke maybe too many. But your stud is your stud, and TH does just that. Please keep trying to "upgrade" one of the few QBs in two decades to actually excite the fanbase and achieve some results, but for the KARENS and DARRINS that post here, it just does not look good enough for these fools to impress their elite friends when drinking shitty wine and pontificating about how much better things could be. Go get bent.

What an epic rant. I didn't read this originally because it was too long. But after seeing some other replies, I had to check it out.

Very well done.

Pinkies up!!

Yeah we are winning because of defense and the run game and in spite if our limitations in the passing game. TH is better than Wentz because he helps hide our weak ass pass pro by moving. He doesn’t see the field well at all and has a weak arm.
You can win with defense and a strong run game but it doesn’t mean we don’t need a quarterback going forward.

I was watching KC last night and imagine if we found a Mahomes type of QB. We have all these pass catchers but we're a run first team right now. It is what it is but the organization has to find that guy under center. This potentially could be such an explosive offense. Maybe Howell can be that guy in the future.

Get bent? Drinking shitty wine? Who are you even yelling at? We have maybe the best d line in football and a great 1-2 punch in the run game. We have real good wr’s, but at some point you need a quarterback who can throw down field and see the field. I have no problem with Taylor as a backup, but if you think he is good enough to make us serious contenders than maybe you need to drink better wine.

I think he needs to avoid alcohol altogether, and smoke a joint and chill.

This is a great post..lol.. But the goal SHOULD be to win a SB. That simply isn't going to happen w/ Taylor. We all love his story and all but he isn't taking the organization to that level. Tops this is a Wild Card type of team and lose in the first round.

Even more happy we were able to extend with McLaurin, in case we can't reach a deal with Payne.

We can use the franchise tag on Payne for a year if needed. He is playing too well to just let him walk and hope Mathis can return healthy and get anywhere near replacing that production.

You're right, our d-line is a problem, and we should keep it as such through at least 2023.

Wentz was bashed WAY More on this board than TH ever has.. In fact most of us all agree that he's a gamer with heart and a good leader. The issue is you can't hide the lack of arm talent with him, Sam Howell could be a better version of TH and if he is why be mad at that? If he's not then draft a QB in 2024

I found a picture of some of us hanging out after wins discussing replacing Heinicke.

I watched Howell all 3 years at UNC, every game...he will not be Mahomes...but he could be a Josh Allen type QB, but he's not as big. Good arm and tough runner...it's his decision making that will make or break him. Doesn't seem we will have a top 10-15 pick in the draft, so I say we roll with Howell and TH next season (hopefully through the new owner transition), play Howell and see what he has...and if not, trade up in the next draft to get UNC's current QB Drake Maye...because that kid has IT!

The last time the defense looked this good was 04/05. I haven't seen a suffocating performance like that in at least a decade.
