The majority of preseason analysis is cute, empty, and downright meaningless. I can’t name a single player or team who wowed in the preseason, and continued to into the regular season, as some August landmark signifying the things that were to come. Ryan Mallett wasn’t a moster. LeStar Jean was a perennial. Bill O’Brien’s mock game super genius super cool offense existed on Iphone camera rolls, and Iphone camera rolls alone.
That being said, with so much new taking place for the Texans organization, and the roster in general, some of the glitter may have some luster once week one comes around.
