Quarterback makes his NFL starting debut against one of the best defenses in NFL
‘She’s still a child’: Head and hands of teen last seen in Harris County in 2005 found in freezer in Colorado home
How the Texans operated against the Bears, showing more and more pressure in the second half to prevent halftime adjustments, could be instructive to their strategy Sunday against Maye. Maye is mobile, but arguably not as good at improvising as Williams and not as talented. In that game, Pro Bowl defensive ends Will Anderson Jr. and Danielle Hunter combined for three sacks.The Texans aren’t taking Maye lightly.
‘We have a lot of horses in the stable,’ Texans’ Stefon Diggs a focal point in matchup with Patriots, Christian Gonzalez “It’s probably going to be a little nervous at the beginning. I think once we settle down, we have a chance to move the football and just have fun out there. That’s what this game is about: Don’t make it too big or the spotlight too big. Just go out there with those guys that we’ve been battling for three months since training camp, go out there and try to make some plays.”
Now, his role expands. In terms of playing style. Maye has been compared frequently to Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, who struggled mightily against the Texans last week in a 23-20 loss as he completed just 9 of 31 passes for 131 yards in a performance that was the worst percentage of success in three decades.
“I mean there is a reason he was drafted where he was,” Texans defensive coordinator Matt Burke said. “From a talent standpoint, big, athletic, moves around pretty good, throws on the move and a lot of arm talent. Obviously, a lot of unknowns, but just sort of trying to triangulate between what he see him do well on college tape and what they’ve done in the season so far with the structure of their offense.
