It's a tossup. I just see Brock Osweiler, who was around for Denver last year (even though he's awful). I think Houston has a slightly better ground game. Houston has a decent defense and they match up with Oakland in almost everything. I just give it to the home team. If it was in Oakland, it'd be a totally different story. Plus, Bill O'Brien is coaching for his job, not Jack Del Rio. That's got to light something underneath this team. It's bold, but I think Houston takes it. Thats true. If Houston would actually fire O'Brien then I'll view that franchise as a joke. He's an EXCELLENT coach. Loved him at Penn State. They have never given him HIS quarterback. He didn't want Picksweiler, their owner did. Have you heard the reports the organization is trying to put the blame on O'Brien for Osweiler? ROFL I hope Houston wins, so they can't fire O'Brien. If they lose today, they're trashing O'Brien and trying to salvage that awful contract. But if you look on the market, there really isn't anyone better... at all.

If O'Brien stays then Osweiler will be gone. And if Osweiler does get cut, because he won't get traded. Not team will trade for that contract but if he gets cut, then the Texans should look to sign Tyrod Taylor. He's a good QB. The Bills are fools for giving up on him too. They plan to cut him. If I'm O'Brien, I'm pushing the organization to get Tyrod in the offseason. The Texans are in no position to draft a QB and O'Brien has NEVER had his guy under center.

I don't see Osweiler gone, because even if he is cut, that is a lot of dead money. And the Bills are idiots, but maybe they are eyeing someone in particular in the draft, but who knows.

I think they actually like Cardale Jones as crazy as it sounds.

I think they actually like Cardale Jones as crazy as it sounds. Cardale Jones is the most overrated backup I know. In Ohio State it was the same way. If Urban Meyer opted not to play Cardale after his National Championship heroics, there is a very good reason.

It was all Houston, 10-0, until the returner for Oakland bounced that punt return. All momentum is on Oakland's side now.
10-7 Houston at end of 1st quarter. No turnovers yet.

Houston is going to end up taking this one. It was the final straw when Cook overthrew his guy on 3rd by a mile into the hands of Corey Moore.
I highly doubt the Texans can have any chance next week. The defense has been great, but you can't have a 3rd down conversion rate as low as they have today and still win games. Their saving grace is Oakland's has been worse.

The first half is in the books and Miami has already lost the game. Not scoring anything at the end of the first half was huge.
20-6 Pittsburgh at halftime

He's been nonexistent up until those last two drives. Now all of a sudden the Packers lead 14-6 at the half.
