3 people who deserve blame for the Texans’ 41-7 loss to the Ravens

The Houston Texans dropped a key matchup with the Baltimore Ravens 41-7. Here are three people worthy of the blame.

The Houston Texans dropped a big game 41-7 to the Baltimore Ravens Sunday afternoon at M&T Bank Stadium. In what could have been a consequential win over one of the top teams in the AFC, the Texans came out and played like the worst team in their division, not the cream of the AFC South. Here are three people who are at fault for the Texans’ loss.

It is easy to blame O’Brien because he is the coach and the buck stops with him relative to game day operations. However, the Texans were coming off of a bye week. The only offensive starter that was scratched was receiver Will Fuller, who had been out since Week 8 anyway. Mustering seven points, the fewest ever with Deshaun Watson as the starter, shows the game plan and the execution wasn’t top notch.
