The Texans head to Foxborough to challenge the Patriots today and we’re kind of hoping Bill O’Brien isn’t once again taken behind the woodshed by his former employer.
The Texans have matched up fairly well against the Patriots under OB. Belichick’s strength, however, is that his team can hang around long enough, and do just enough to stay in the game, while waiting for the opponent to make one mistake, whether it’s a botched snap, failed drive, or settling for three points instead of seven, and then go for the jugular. O’Brien’s weakness, sadly, is that far too often, his offense falters (his special teams sucks @ss, too) to the point that his defense is either on the field too long and starts to make mistakes or loses control of the game.
