We faced a Balt team that had a horrible off season, lost weapons over the past month and even during the game, and Flacco played horrible. Flacco didnt play a snap in the pre season and it showed. Our D didn't cause the Ravens to look bad, Flacco was missing wide open receivers, he only completed something like 7-9 passes. Another issue is we can't stop the run. We can't tackle till the player is in the secondary, this needs cleaned up fast. I expect the Texans to play a lot better than the Ravens did even with a rookie QB. Their line is just as bad as ours but it wouldn't surprise me if we get 2 or less sacks for the whole game. They will adjust and hide their flaws, we will watch ours get exposed repeatedly on national tv.
I think the big thing is they got the lead so early that they didn't run their normal offense. They basically ran the ball every play and still had success.
Had they attacked with passes, the outcome could have been more points.
