Just curious to hear people's opinion on this guy's take on the game/line this weekend.

I have yet to make a bet this football season, beyond the dinner I lost for the CSU/cu travesty. But, I am hard-pressed to keep that record intact. Have you taken a gander at the points Houston is getting! :eek:
I love Houston. Yep...I said it. I LOVE Houston. :excited:
First of all, they are better-than-shown. That's for sure. They've turned it over 7 times in two games. Nobody wins doing that...NOBODY. They could be 2 - 0, and this line would be very different.
KC is still receiving the respect they got for starting so hot last year. Fact is, they have been stinking up the joint for awhile now. Recency, baby. They have not done #### for some time. The Texans will be able to run on KC. You know that. And Carr will be able to throw, as well.
What, Gooonter will shore up their D? Come on. Try signing some guys that can play D, first. I can't believe people were thinking their D would be vastly improved...especially this early in the season. THEY ARE THE SAME, folks -- HORRIBLE.
KC is still being valued highly, for whatever reasons...and the Texans, conversely, are still being valued as an expansion team (to an extent) -- which they are not. Look, Davis is for real. So is Carr. And Johnson is a stud.
KC is in total disarray right now. Everyone believed that Vermeil "third year" crap like it was gospel. Why? Where is the D? Where are the recievers? Even that O-line is showing cracks. Welbourne is no Tait. And Green is no Favre. With a surrounding cast that is cracking (reports that Gonzo is more hurt than he says, Priest, Vermeil/LJ), Trent falls back to mediocrity quickly. And his numbers are showing it. This comes from a guy who pimped him on here (http://forums.footballguys.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=47248&hl=trent+green) last year, so don't label me a hater.
Priest is not even worth mentioning, really, because it's IN the line, and we are all well aware of it. But, suffice is to say, it can't be good for the team's psyche. Hell, if rumors of him starting drive this line to 10 :eek: , great! I'm not so sure he lasts, even if he does play. More importantly, how is KC going to stop Houston?
I'll take the points -- in a game that Houston may win outright. I'll play the moneyline, as well. :yes:
There it is. My first MONSTER play of the season. You have been warned. :lol: :banned:
