Overall, it's early. It was. bad showing for the offense, but that's become pretty customary around here. It's bleak, but not quite grounds for funeral arrangements.
I still despise the lack of effective run game.
I'm also perpetually asking what the actual offensive gameplan is.
I dont think any interior linemen played well. Karras might be a great off field individual and everybody loves his personality but as a center, he is mediocre. Not horrible but not great either. Volson is typical Volson. The middle of the line is causing issues.
As far as lack of running game, I have been telling people the last couple of years it wasn't just Mixon's fault. The O line has done a bad job opening up holes for the running backs. At what point do we hold Pollack and the offensive line responsible? or are we going to keep blaming every running back that comes along as the problem? Joe Mixon didnt have a problem running today behind the Texans offensive line. It wouldnt surprise me if he had a career year.
