Brissett never found his rhythm (and trust)
As someone as who’s been a big believer in Jacoby Brissett, I must say this: His latest performance against the Texans is the worst he’s played this entire season. Besides his mediocre numbers (16 of 25, 129 passing yards and a 40.8 passer rating), we saw a lack of confidence and execution by Brissett.
While some will point to coach Frank Reich and his staff for their heavy reliance on the running game, it doesn’t mean Brissett is off the hook. He had his share of opportunities to throw the ball downfield and give his receivers chances to make a play.
But instead, Brissett was hesitant in taking those deep shots against the Texans’ suspect secondary, while also missing on easier throws within five to 10 yards.
