Great win, comfortable even if it didn't feel that way watching it.
Lots of positives but some worrying negatives despite the win.
Most of all Tavon with the horrible knee injury again and if it's as bad as it looks then that might be his 3rd season in 5 that he misses almost the entire year.
The offensive line is a problem right now in both phases but especially in pass protection. It's not going to be sustainable against better teams for Lamar to be running for his life.
But lots of good things:
Lamar still looks great even when he's quiet. A couple of errant throws and we stalled a few times in the redzone but otherwise this offence moved downfield pretty methodically even without the help of a stalwart offensive line. The Texans were intent on not getting beat over the top so Lamar just moved us down the field.
Judon after a quiet game against the Browns absolutely victimised the texans tackles on the edge even though he didn't get any finishes. Generally the defence didn't finish well but it was a big positive to see the blitzes create major pressure events this week given its relative ineffectiveness vs the Browns.
The run defence was superb.
