Shows how weak Texans schedule has been. This is there 1st game this season against a team with a .500 record or better.

Colts looking like a solid AFC contender; Wouldn't be surprised if Super Bowl
had same two teams as SB XLIV.

Quenton Nelson is a very impressive rookie O lineman. He's really had Clowney's number today.

Looking at end of season record they played twice against Titans and colts, played Philly, Dallas, and New England.

They're 3-4 against ranked teams. Not overwhelming

Adding to that, their 2nd round pick RT Braden Smith from Auburn has been fantastic too. He played RG in college but the Colts put him at tackle and now they’re all set.

Deshaun Watson is in the same position Luck was in a few years ago. No offensive line, limited weapons, and an inconsistent running attack.

The Colts have looked good, but Houston has looked equally bad. I believe Indy has a good team, but it's hard to measure them watching this game. Houston has been all but inept.

+1. Hard to win at this level with a bad O line.

Watson needs help upfront.

Yep, you nailed it Rez.


It isn’t sexy drafting O-Line highly but man does it pay off.

Look at the ram and Peat picks coupled with the Unger trade and Warford signing. We completely retooled our line in like 2 years I think it was. And remember the year before we traded for unger how bad our interior was?
