It kept them in the postseason picture for most of the season. They had no running game and an inconsistent week to week passing game. They just got manhandled up front today by the Saints OL, exposing an athletically weak secondary.

Re: Around the NFL - Wildcard Playoffs
This is a no brainer, Fisher will go to Rams over Miami because Rams already have a franchise QB he can work with. Miami is a career ender.
I know...wrong thread.

Re: Around the NFL - Wildcard Playoffs
Has Yates really done anything all that special, other than not give games away?

The Texans have a strong running game and defense. Anytime you have those two things a rookie QB will have a chance.

The thing is you dont need a QB to do a whole lot more. Had Rex been better at not giving away games the season might have turned out differently.

Because of our talent level, Rex was called upon to do more than he was capable of.....and far more than Yates was called upon to do.

I dont see it that way. They werent asking Rex to be Peyton Manning, all they wanted him to do was complete some passes (which he did) and not give away the football (he didnt do). That's all it looks like Yates had to do and he did it.

Re: Around the NFL - Wildcard Playoffs
I don't see Yates doing much other than handing it off and making some pretty safe throws.

I think he makes his throws look safer because he doesnt do stupid things with the ball. Rex does stupid things with the ball so everything he does looks like an adventure.

Giants/Falcons game looks to be a defensive battle, very different from the Saints/Lions game yesteday.

Re: Around the NFL - Wildcard Playoffs
When is Matt Ryan gonna have his signature game? Been waiting on it for a couple years.

Always thought Mike Smith is a bit of an overrated coach

And the Redskins beat the Giants twice this year with Grossman. The Redskins will be in the playoffs next year, mark my words.
