So here is another look at the new team, and hopefully the view is better, especially on the D.

What are you watching, what are you wanting, and most importantly we need to get out of there without harm to anyone.

Time to see more, and hopefully a few of the youngsters start to shine.

Probably like last week. One series and done for Kirk

Texans don't need their starters to play because they already kicked the shit out of the Raiders during the joint practice. Don't need to see anymore from them.

Hope to see a improved defense showing today and see what Mendoza will do with the 1's and start of the game.

Still is preseason so is a slight sample

Yep. We didn't draft the kid to not play him. We want him on the field for us the second he's ready, so he needs real time snaps.

ESPN says Mendoza will start and possibly play into the third quarter.

Prolly will be on channel 5 again in So Cal.

It's on ESPN.

Stroud and starters need the work and ours don’t?

Can’t say I agree there.

Our defense is absolutely DOG WATER MIXED WITH URINE.

#68 is f[raiders_icon]cking terrible

Keeping an eye on the $12M Koonce

So far he’s been completely stuffed. Need him to figure it out, and badly.

Eichenburg is hot garbage

Yikes

It's funny that Houston fans are gonna be all high on their run game when the season starts. The reality is that they just played against us, and that a real NFL D will stomp that ass.

Same as it ever was.

It's going to be a long season with this bottom 5 defense.

not a good first pass
