Man, what a game we just witnessed. Houston Texans against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London ends in a thrilling win. Man, we're going to dive into all that and more because I think Houston can still make the playoffs after this win. But right before we dive into all that, man, about 90% of you guys still not subscribed. So do your boy a favor, hit that subscribe button. You're going to be getting daily updates here on Texans Digest. Man, let's not waste any more time. Let's not waste any more time at all because I think Houston Texans can still make the playoffs. But first, we're going to break down this game and what this means for Houston. So let's start off. Houston sneaks out of London with a major win. Houston now back on track with a 2-4 record. And I know what a lot of you guys are thinking. I know what you're thinking before you even say, Isaac, they're 2-4. Let's calm down. I'm not going to calm down. I'm not going to calm down because when this team was 0-4, if you follow this channel closely, when this team was 0-4, I was saying, hey, I think this team can still do something great this season, man. I think this team can still make a playoffs. I think they can still show that they can still be Super Bowl caliber, but it's going to take a miracle. And a miracle is what we are getting as Houston Texans fans. Last week, obviously, you beat the Tennessee Titans. We keep talking about it. Obviously, you beat the Tennessee Titans. There's not a whole lot of weight behind that. Tennessee Titans are a mess this season. But I said, hey, you finally get a win. You get a win against the division rivals. it can only go up from here, right? Sure enough, it did. Week six of the NFL season, Houston Texans, they pull off the win against the Jacksonville Jaguars. And if you notice closely in my introduction slide, I said Houston sneaks out of London with the win. And I know what you're already thinking. Isaac, this game was neck and neck the whole game. If not, Houston was in lead for a big chunk of the game, obviously after halftime and then right before Fairbairn kicked the game winning field goal. I'll tell you something. I say they snuck out of London with the win because we've been talking about it all week on this channel. London is the Jacksonville Jaguars home away from home. That is constantly a Jacksonville Jaguar pro crowd. Jacksonville had already been there for going on two weeks because last week they had played Philadelphia Eagles over there and ended that in a great game. I had said it all week. I said, hey, this is gonna be a tough game for Houston. You're not only on the road. You're not only against the division rival. You're in London. That time change is kind of crazy to adapt to. You're in London. Not only are you in London, you're in a pro Jacksonville Jaguar crowd. Jacksonville or London loves Jacksonville. That is their home away from home. Jacksonville loves staying there. They go there every single season. Roger Goodell sends them there every single season. I thought they had all the advantages in the world. It did not matter. Houston got out of here with a 34-31 win off of that 49-yard field goal by Fairbairn. What a game, man. What a game, and we're going to break it down. We're going to start off with the Houston Texans offense because that was their strong suit. CJ Stroud, what a phenomenal game by CJ Stroud. I keep saying it. I say, CJ, hey, if you want that bag, you got to prove something. You got to show us that you're worth the bag. He keeps doing that each and every single week, man. Even in the losses, I still think he does a great job of showing it. Let's put this here on the big screen. So CJ Stroud, 312 passing yards, three touchdowns. He does throw that first interception of the season, but I don't think it really matters here as we're sitting here with the victory. 70% completion percentage. CJ, you're starting to see it now that Marvin Harrison Jr. is on the team. They are finally, CJ is just having great time through the air. He's doing phenomenal through the air 312 passing yards man obviously we'll talk about that interception a little bit later on but I think it was still a great game for this offense Jalen Nolan where did you come from man 107 yards and a 50 yard catch he got himself a touchdown great performance Nico Collins after that catch he had on the first drive or not I think it was actually the second drive where we scored a touchdown Nico Collins had that great catch it ended in a Marlon Klein or not a Marlon Klein it ended in a touchdown cast by Foster Monroe obviously Nico Collins had that great catch I want to call it double team it was kind of sort of not really double coverage but either way he had a great catch and he kind of went quiet after that he kind of went a little bit quieter after that 42 yard grab went a little bit slow after that then he came back in a big way when we needed him in the fourth quarter another huge 20 yard reception on that drive where we ended up kicking the field goal Nico Collins and once again proving why he is the number one receiver on this team but the number one receiver on this team today was Jalen Nolan Jalen Nolan had himself a great game man he looked great last week against Tennessee as well Marvin Harrison Jr. I think it's a good start for him man a good start for him we kept talking about how he wasn't going to be 100% they weren't going to throw all the plays on him I get that but I still think we needed him in a big way we didn't get him in a ginormous way but three catches for 34 yards for Marvin Harrison Jr. I think that's still a great performance I think that's still something to hang our hats high on because apparently up to this coaching staff and what the coach has to say and what a lot of people are saying is you know Marvin still isn't 100% in terms of getting to know the playbook, and they're not running him on 100% of plays. That being said, he still had a pretty solid game. I think when we talked about his time with Arizona, he was getting maybe one target a week, maybe two, and not really going anywhere. In his first game with Houston, he had himself three catches for 34 yards, a pretty solid performance. Obviously, KeShawn Booty, I had told you, hey, this guy's good, but I think Marvin Harrison Jr. is going to very easily take his spot. We're already seeing that, but just offensively was a great performance. Foster Monroe had himself a phenomenal game if you guys remember that second touchdown he had right before halftime back of the end zone no Jacksonville Jaguar was in the five yards of that man easy touchdown over the middle by CJ Stroud probably the easiest touchdown pass he'll ever have in his career great performance by this offense man this defense man I'm gonna I'll say it I'll say this defense wasn't the best in the world but guess what man this defense did just enough they did just enough let's talk about that touchdown drive or that field goal drive by Jacksonville right before Houston went on that game winning field goal drive at the end of the game this defense did what they were supposed to man headed into that we can now talk about we'll we'll now talk about that CJ Stroud interception we can talk about that CJ Stroud interception it was the end of the game obviously we're up by three I'm looking at this I'm saying hey three minutes left we are five what was it five six yards away from scoring a touchdown I'm saying hey we're right there we are right there CJ just run it in with Woody Marks not just because I have him on my fantasy team but we're right there man throw a touchdown you've been perfect this year throws the interception to Travis Hunter was really disappointing man it was really disappointing to see that and I was thinking it couldn't have came at a worse time man that first interception of the season couldn't have came at a worse time Jacksonville has a great offense Trevor Lawrence was driving all throughout the game he had himself a great performance as well I was seeing that I was seeing that T-Law had had himself a good game up to that point I was saying Jacksonville is going to drive on this team and they're going to get some points on the board I hope it's not a touchdown but they're going to drive on this team and get some points on the board and for a minute there it looked like they were going to get that touchdown they did not when this defense needed to this defense held up very great obviously they stopped Jacksonville Jacksonville ties it up 31-31 all now Houston has a minute to get going and they get going in a big way Nico Collins has himself a great catch on that game-winning drive that on top of Woody Marks just doing just enough and in my opinion just kind of draining the clock while still getting some meaningful yardage obviously there was only once or twice where he got about two yards I think outside of that Woody Marks was pretty decent something I will say just just a little side note I said Woody Marks should have been getting the starting snaps he did I think that was good for him but at the same time I'm looking at Woody Marks Jahan Jordan also had himself his first career touchdown so that's good but I'm kind of looking at this team and I'm saying hey this this this offseason when we enter into the draft this is probably the time where you draft that where you draft that young speedy running back in the third or fourth round maybe the fifth round where you draft that guy you know I think this is kind of what we're looking at Woody Marks had himself an okay game but in the long run I still think we need to do something different at running back position obviously that offensive line needs to be better in that case but still just a great game man just a great game I absolutely love what I saw from this team man obviously defense you got to tweak it a little bit let's talk about it man the defense was okay I think Kamari Lassiter had himself a great game Reed Blankenship I'll say that you hate to see him leave the game he left the game with the concussion protocol obviously you hate to see that but still was pretty solid for a team that I was hyping up this offensive line and saying hey man or this defensive line and saying hey they're gonna do phenomenally i think they're gonna do great i think this defensive line i think will Anderson Jr is gonna feast i think Daniel Hunter is gonna be right behind him they didn't get a single sack man they did not they were not and correct me if i'm wrong guys because i will admit uh this game was at 8 30 in the morning 8 30 in the morning on sundays you know what i'm doing i'm at church i am at church i actually got my my church t-shirt on right now i was at church today whenever this game was going on so i only made it for the around the second half which what i was able to watch but from what I've seen man this defense it did okay obviously I would have loved to see them get that sack swarm swarm Trevor Lawrence behind the line they weren't able to do that but it was still a great game Kaden Bullock I'm gonna say this Kaden not Kaden Kaden Bullock he had himself a great game last week against Tennessee I think he was absolutely disruptive this week again did himself a phenomenal job got himself an interception as well on T-Law that's one you put in the books I intercepted Trevor Lawrence as Trevor Lawrence's career is going pretty well I absolutely love what I saw out of him he played very solid and I just love what I saw from this team man and I want to talk about it now I want to talk about what this means for this team because I think they can still do it man this team has proven that they can come back from adversity they've done it in past seasons and obviously people like to talk about the fact that DeMeco Ryans hasn't let this team past the divisional round and we've had some great teams over the past few years very similar teams than what we have now but even more stacked I think offensively this team can still do it man but once again it's going to take a lot of effort you're still two and four at the end of the day that we're going good back back on that winning streak but you're still two and four you're still two and four so you do got to kind of be like okay we still got a long way to go but this is a good start and I love what I'm seeing from DeMeco Ryans I think him calling plays defensively has been great obviously this week the defense wasn't phenomenal but you know how good is that Jacksonville Jaguars offense is what we have to ask ourself a lot to clean up on still obviously that interception in the red zone by CJ Stroud you hate to see it but there's still so much good to take away from this game and I loved what I saw, offensively at least, from the Houston Texans. CJ Stroud's on a roll right now, man. He's on a roll right now, obviously through his first interception of the season. I think he's still on a roll. I think he's still doing great, man. I think there's a lot to look forward to him as well. Something I'm going to ask you guys. We're going to end this video on a high note. We're already going to be looking towards the future. You play New York next week. New York is, they're a bit of a tricky team to cover, aren't they? Because they're 3-1-1, but I feel like they're a team that is one three and one if that makes sense they don't feel like a great football team they do not feel like a great football team and I think it's a very winnable game for Houston so I'm going to ask you guys this question does Houston does this game change your opinion on if Houston can make the playoffs yes no or beat New York next week and then we can talk I know a lot of people are still like hey Isaac we're still two and four I'm not going to jump the gun on this team obviously great win in London but I'm not going to jump the gun on this team I agree with that. But I think we can start having that conversation next week if we put another whooping on the New York Giants. I think, again, it has to be that kind of game that we talked about with Tennessee, how, hey, this isn't the best football team in the world. Go out there and put a whooping on them. Go out there and put a whooping on them. Everybody loves themselves some Jameis Winston. Jameis Winston, one of the most likable guys in the league. You got to go out there and you got to put a whooping on him. Will Anderson Jr. was not really there. We didn't see much of him this afternoon. I think he had one tackle. You got to see more of that. You got to see more of him and Dan Hunter in the next game but let me know what you guys think does this change your opinion on if Houston is still a playoff contender and if it doesn't this week will it next week thank you guys so much for watching today on Texans Digest have a great day have a blessed day I'll see you guys tomorrow in H-Town Down
