Houston is a frustrating team to watch. They’re so inconsistent on offense. There’s no running game and Stroud seems to be continuing his regression from 2023.
Couldn't agree more...and of course a PR then their first solid run of the day give them the lead late.

Wow, Tampa Bay with the comeback, and score with 0:06 left to take the lead, 20-19.

Typical Houston under Ryans. They waste a ton of chances then aren’t good enough when it matters. I feel for their fans right now.

I’m not sold on these analytics-based decisions.

What kind of team fails to score a TD on three downs from an opponent’s 6 yd line and doesn’t take the FG attempt?

Those 3 pts, seemingly meaningless at the time, might have cost Houston the victory.

The Eagles seem to be the most complete team this season, but it also appears the NFL has a lot of Harbaugh love. 🥰 🤮

It’s still early. The Eagles need to be A LOT better on offense and their schedule is just brutal. They get LA next week then travel to Tampa the week after. Lots of work to do.

Definitely the right decision to go for it in that situation on 4th down at the 1. Even if you miss, you're giving the opponent the ball at the 1 rather than the ~30. Hated the play call, but can't kick a FG in that spot.
