Saints vs Falcons Twitter this week took me down a path of destruction and AI hate imagery that I needed more time to comprehend than I was given or thought I needed. Anyways, Texans vs Titans toilet bowl this week should be great for all 34 people with some interest left.

Things I knew before Week 1: - Jayden Higgins injury was a bigger loss than people let on - They couldn’t afford to lose Nico Collins much, if at all - Tank Dell wasn’t going to magically return to form - The TE room would be much improved with Moreau+Klein - The OL was anything but a sure thing

I know it’s jokes, but how many QBs would have the type of success Stroud has had if you gave them a Bottom 5 OL and Bottom 5 running game in each of their first THREE years in the league? The amount of blemishes he’s covered up and coming through in tough circumstance for years is impressive.

What Pablo Torre did was ridiculously impressive. Uncovered a conspiracy between rich guys, withstood a propaganda campaign by one of the richest guys in the world with a pretty good reputation, didn't buckle or panic, and just kept reporting. That's some Pulitzerin' right there.

They went from drafting Keon Coleman early, to Josh Palmer, to Curtis Samuel, to whatever’s left of Brandin Cooks, to now flipping a 2nd for DJ Moore and a 5th to provide answers at WR. Hilarious waste of resources and shot attempts during Josh Allen’s prime.

I’m not one for violence, but if Josh Allen walked into the office smoked Brandon Beane in the face with a football right now I think everyone would understand. #Bills

The Colts holding themselves hostage by failing to sign Alex Pierce (very good) and/or Daniel Jones (Mid+Achilles) over a couple months is a tough look. However, it is quite funny to me this is happening with two players I don’t think people would classify as being even Top 10 at their positions.

Moving on from Tytus Howard clears up $18M+ in immediate cash. Can’t blame him for wanting another bite at the contract apple as a Tackle. Always had love for the guy because of his draft night and his willingness to play multiple spots. Don’t blame the Texans for moving on despite the unknown.

So, 41% of Stroud's routes have been out-breaking--he's always been much better throwing on in-breakers, but with Collins out, it seems like they're forced to live outside of his comfort zone today. Something you've seen in a few of his bad games over the years has been bad accuracy on outs.

Tytus Howard was working at RG in minicamp today. I’m not sure if he has ever played Center, but the @houstontexans.bsky.social may as well let him play there for a game so he can complete the Infinity Stone OL gauntlet. Not sure how many lineman have ever started at all 5 spots.

If you told me at the beginning of free agency the Texans would move on from Kenyon Green and Shaq Mason to Laken Tomlinson and Ed Ingram, I probably would’ve put some money on CJ Stroud eventually asking for a trade. I still think Caley and the Day1/2 Rookie they draft will help…but this is rough.
