Everyone agrees that Deshaun Watson took far too many hits last week against the Dallas Cowboys.That doesn’t mean Houston’s quarterback is going to change the way he plays on Sunday when the Texans (2-3) host the Buffalo Bills (2-3).Many of those hits against Dallas came on runs when he simply refused to slide Aaron Colvin Color Rush Jersey , something that he won’t apologize for.“If you put (me in) that same situation in overtime and it’s fourth-and-1 and we need a touchdown and the ball is in my hands, you’re going to want me to get in that end zone,” Watson said. “It’s a fine line. You’ve got to pick your spots and pick your situations.”Coach Bill O’Brien doesn’t blame his young quarterback for trying to make plays, but is looking for ways to limit how many blows he takes. Many running quarterbacks have had their production 鈥?and careers 鈥?curtailed by getting hit too hard too often.“Two of the plays where he took a hit where he was trying to score touchdowns,” O’Brien said. “So, very competitive guy and does a great job of moving. Sometimes the ball can come out a little bit quicker, sometimes the play can be better, but we’re all working hard to improve every area of the offense.”The repeated hits from the Cowboys left Watson a bit banged-up this week, but he insisted that he’s fine and won’t be limited against Buffalo. He was asked if this was the sorest he’s ever been after a game.“I’ve been sore plenty of times,” he said. “It’s part of the game, able to take some shots and just regroup and keep moving forward.”Buffalo coach Sean McDermott said he spent some time with Watson before he was drafted last year and raved about him as a person and a player. He knows a key for his team Sunday will be finding a way to limit his dynamic plays.“He’s a headache … the way he plays, he makes plays with his arm, he makes plays with his feet,” McDermott said. “I’ve got a lot of respect for him.”Some things to know about Buffalo’s trip to Houston on Sunday:RUNNING GAME FOCUSAs the Bills try to bring rookie quarterback Josh Allen along, McDermott knows that improving his team’s running game will help the process.“To me, they go hand in hand when you’re trying to be responsible with a young player, a young quarterback in particular, that some form of balance is important,” he said.The Bills have struggled on offense so far and their 221.2 yards a game rank 31st. They’re averaging 121.8 yards passing a game, the lowest output in the league. Despite those numbers, McDermott is careful not to put too much pressure on Allen to turn things around by himself.“I’ve been around young quarterbacks before, and to put too much on young quarterbacks’ shoulders… (and say): ‘Hey go out there and win the game.’ That’s a little bit unrealistic,” McDermott said. “So, we’ve got to make sure we put a good plan in place every week that gives us a chance to win and the quarterback a chance to develop, and also keep the quarterback upright as well.”SACK RACEHouston defensive end J.J. Watt looks to have put the last two injury-filled seasons behind him and is tied for first in the NFL with six sacks this year. Watt is tied with Cincinnati’s Geno Atkins and his young brother, Pittsburgh’s T.J. Watt.“It’s pretty wild when you go and you look at the sack sheet and you see our names next to each other,” Watt said. “We used to beat up on each other in backyard and now we get to see our names at the top of the NFL sack charts. So Vyncint Smith Color Rush Jersey , it’s incredible and I’m lucky.”COMING ALONGThe Texans have been impressed with the development of rookie WR Keke Coutee, who has played the last two games after sitting out the first three weeks with a hamstring injury. The fourth-round pick has 17 receptions for 160 yards and scored his first touchdown in Sunday’s overtime win against the Dallas Cowboys.“He has great instincts, great ability to make plays on the ball, strong hands and he’s just a guy with a high football IQ,” Watson said. “So, whenever I see him one on one or in the zone coverage, get the ball in his area just like Hop (DeAndre Hopkins) and all of the other receivers and he’s going to make the play.”___AP Sports Writer John Wawrow contributed to this report.___ The newest inductions to the Pro Football Hall of Fame were announced last Saturday night. Champ Bailey, Pat Bowlen, Gil Brandt, Tony Gonzalez, Ty Law, Kevin Mawae, Ed Reed, and Johnny Robinson were selected to be busted in bronze. After the news broke, the people who look for a Houston Texans slant in everything said, and by said, I mean took to social media, things like “Former Houston Texan” Ed Reed selected to the 2019 Pro Football Hall of Fame. This isn’t true. Ed Reed isn’t a former Houston Texan. Ed Reed is a former Baltimore Raven. He played 11 seasons there, and there he was named to five first team All-Pro teams, and nine Pro Bowls, the last of which was in 2013, which was also his last year in Baltimore. After that season he was a free agent. The Texans signed him instead of resigning their own, Glover Quin, who is still an excellent starter in Detroit. The idea was Reed would be some super secret Tom Brady/Peyton Manning warlock who could vanquish both by presence alone, and get Houston above and beyond that impassable Divisional Round peak. This didn’t happen. This was an extremely stupid idea. One of the dumbest ideas a historically dumb franchise has ever had. Houston went 2-14. Reed was released before he could even play against Brady and Manning. Shilo Keo started instead. The Texans lost 31-34 and 13-37 in those games. It’s important to remember that man wasn’t Ed Reed. That was a 35 year old safety who collected one last pay check before never playing football again. He was in shambles. He walked off the set of the Walking Dead. He had the hips of a 14 year old German Shepard, and after offseason surgery really didn’t even want to make it back by week one, let alone play at all whatsoever. On the field he was lifeless. Standing way back there thirty yards off the ball Brandon Dunn Color Rush Jersey , doing as little as possible only if doing nothing at all counts as doing as little as possible. In Houston he had 16 tackles in 7 games. That’s it. No interceptions. No passes defensed. Nothing. This wasn’t Ed Reed. This was a pillowcase made from the same skin, a phantom, an action figure, a caricature, a cardboard cutout, a hologram, it was a thing that looked like Ed Reed, but wasn’t Ed Reed, the Hall of Fame safety, and one of the greatest defensive players in the history of the league. One day Andre Johnson will be elected into the Hall of Fame. The Texans’ first spectacular player, spent the majority of his career in Houston, until Bill O’Brien told him he wouldn’t get more than 40 catches in the Texans’ 2015 super offense led by Brian Hoyer and Ryan Mallett, and instead gave them to Nate Washington. So Johnson left and went to Indy, and was bad, and then played in Tennessee, where he was also bad, and quit mid year, but also somehow caught a game winning touchdown catch against Detroit. And when this day comes Colts and Titans people will say former Colt/Titan Andre Johnson was elected into the NFL Hall of Fame, and you will be upset, these words were hurt, enrage you even, but where were you when former Houston Texan Ed Reed was inducted to the Pro Football Hall of Fame? As awful as this franchise has been, and as good as they’ve been at losing more games than winning, these aren’t the stretches that need to be taken to give this team relevancy. One day all that will happen. This isn’t that time. There’s no Hall of Fame attachment here. Nothing to remember. Reed isn’t a former Houston Texan. He isn’t a former New York Jet. He’s a former Baltimore Raven.
