Came in here due to an algorithm. As a Chargers fan, thank you for your complete analysis. Texans are a formidable opponent. Coach DeMeco is a great coach and CJ is from here. Nothing but respect for you all! Good luck and may the best team beat the KC Cheats and their refs!
As a Chargers fan here are some unmentioned names to watch out for. DEFENSE Daiyan Henley #0: Young, athletic, Pro-bowl snub LB Poona Ford #95: Run game stuffer Tuli Tuipulotu #45: 2nd year edge rusher who subs in at a high level Cam Hart #20 and Tarheeb Still #29: 5th round rookie CBs that have had to start since early-mid season due to injury. Cam is physical and Still has good eye for the ball. OFFENSE Will Dissly #81: TE that can block at a high level and be a menace in short passing/screen situations. Bowling balls his way for those clock chewing first downs. Derius Davis #12: Return specialist who has been getting involved in the passing game the past few weeks. Has serious top speed. Joe Alt #76: He was mentioned, but damn hes been incredibly solid for a rookie tackle. SPECIALIST Dicker the Kicker #11: Very very very good kicker. Looks like Jim Carrey in Dumb and dumber. Incredibly lovable guy, can hit 50+ yarders without me needing to leave the room from stress. Special Mention Justin Herbert has been playing at an elite level this year. Hes thrown deep balls more often and more accurately than any other point in his career. When JK Dobbins is on the field he will sacrifice his body in pass protection to give Herbert time to throw. If Herbert has consistent time in the pocket then the Chargers can beat anyone in the league. Good luck!
I’m not Texans fan and I’m not familiar with the team or their players, I’m Chargers all day long. I’m not going to say that Texans are an easy win because this is playoff football. What I will say is these Chargers are different, they’re meaner than past teams. I’ve been a fan for 30yrs but this to me feels like a tougher team and even though they’re not the underdogs they’re going to play like they are. All I have to say is there will be some hard nosed football being played. I’m excited because I think it’s going to be a great game.
Foley fatukasi is back, so that will really really help plugging up the middle. Defensive line needs to play smart and not let burrow escape the pocket, especially to his right. The drive in the titans game looked good, it seems like they installed some more short scheme plays to attack zone and blitz. My hope is that Bobby has been holding back some plays and adjustments for the playoffs (cope). Going into next year, I’d be fine to let stefon go, and run with Nico, diontae, tank (when he’s healthy). Brevin, rookie TE, and Schultz and stay as a heavy 12 personnel team.
Unfortunately Tank will not be healthy and probably does not play a down next year. I think they are absolutely interested in bringing Diggs back or they brink in a dynamic WR.
As a CHARGERS Fan...and real Chargers fan know that it's not going to be an easy game against Huston. For those who think it is they are nuts. It's going to be a good game. Let the best team win.
People are talking like Houston shouldn't even show up to play because the outcome is inevitable. The Chargers have played some good football no doubt, but they are not some juggernaut.
well done, Seth. I listen to you every morning on 610, you crack me up when you go on your tangents. Everyone wants to be a DOG until it is time to do DOG SH&TT!!!! I recall watching you play, you were a RABID DOG!! Texans going to get that DUB on Saturday!
Dude you are not very smart , you literally called Herbert "a game manager " stop commenting! The team is balanced, his wr aren't great except for Ladd so just slow down!😂😂😂😂
If herbert is a game manager this year, then what is stroud? Less yards, less tds, more ints, worse completion %, that's factoring in what he said in terms of the throw aways, qbr and rating is worse also, has better wr and rb plus stroud is self proclaimed top 5. He should never have a year like this. Blame it on the sophomore slump, herbert only joined the 5k club in his soph year, and lamar and mahomes got mvps their 2nd years on the field. Burrow got to the SB his soph year. There's no sophomore slump if you're good.
fact; herbert has thrown for more yds of any qb in nfl history in their first 5 years. Do your reserch. Why cant you give the guy credit hes been on really bad teams with horrible coaching. Herbert will infuriate u haters when he is on top.
Algorithm brought me here. As far as the Texans go, people keep telling me its a cake walk, or at least not a hard game, but its the playoffs, anything can happen, and the Chargers are the Chiefs. They have bad games. They can get dominated sometimes. CJ is great at stayin alive and getting the ball down the field. I fell bad for CJ. I went to Fresno State when David was there and your oline reminds me of the one David had when the franchise was new, except CJ is really mobile. Both teams have a grip of injuries at this point, so those adjustments really are going to the key. Heck tony Jefferson has been palying a lot, and well, but he was coaching to begin the season. The Zeke thing for me is purely for his pass blocking and ability to leak out and be the checkdown guy. Not expecting him to get many real rushing attempts.
Our secondary are hawks! There best receiver is Mconkey. Not impressed. I believe in our stout defense and they’re going to come out on top. CJ needs to light a fire and dominate! He needs to get in Brady mode.
Their offensive line is much as better that ours lol . Cj hasn’t been himself because he’s playing scared that Oline in the biggest reason, it’s a miracle that he hast had a season ending injury. Let’s just hope this coaches don’t get humiliated again like they did against the ravens, we are just the same ole Texans no🆔, of which Texans team is going to show up. I’m praying for Cj so he won’t get hurt.
Texans will be able to run. The question is the red zone. I'm curious if there will be a 4 headed monster back attack. JK Dobbins, Haskins, Vidal, Ezekiel Elliot.
We just haven't played like a playoff team 8+ weeks. The only team in the playoffs worse than us is the Pittsburg Steelers. I also don't trust our offensive coaching to make adjustments and give us a fighting chance.
I keep hearing all the Texan UA-camrs and fans saying Chargers haven’t played anybody. So obviously you’re clueless. And that our defensive stats were against nobody. 7 of our 17 games were against playoff team teams including the Chiefs twice and the Ravens. Also played the Bengals that many view as a playoff team that just didn’t make it. Our defense hasn’t given up more than 20 points playing away all season.
Feels like the Chargers will win by double digits. I ride w/ Justin Herbert to get his first playoff win. Chargers win and cover. Chargers are playing inspired football. Texas is not.
Well, 1. This #1 scoring def is going to keep Texas offense off the field. 2. This will keep defense on the field, and tired by the end of 3rd quarter. 3. Out -coached. Demeco doesnt have a good recordagainst seasoned championship coaches. @SethPayneShow
@@blackmatterlives9865 seasoned? All I see is a coach that couldn’t win anything in the nfl so he went back to college. #1 scoring defense? Dont mean nothin here. Texans are gonna win. Convincingly
Defense gona eat against Herbert, people act like the Chargers have a great offense, it’s not great by any means & we can def make him turnover the ball
I’m not sure about that, you should watch some film before thinking Herbert is going to feed the defense. Dont be mistaken like the Herbert hasn’t faced good defenses. Broncos defense didn’t eat against Herbert and he was missing key players on offense but still made things happen. Herbert is going to have key players back for this game. Don’t get me wrong I’m sure the Texans will make plays but the Chargers offense wears defenders down that’s why by the 2nd half is when Herbert cooks. But like they say playoff football is definitely different so we’ll definitely see Saturday. Bolt up ⚡️⚡️⚡️
The Charger play action will allow them to eat in the middle of the field. Texans LBs and Safeties will have to deal with Diss, Smart and LaDD. Drop Stingley into man on Ladd, then Darius Davis will make you pay on the deep rout. Chargers tackles, both ProBowl worthy, will limit the edge rushers and give Herbert plenty of time to do his magic. The Broncos Defense is better than the Texans and Herbert cooked them. The Chargers will give up some ground yards (but still top half) as they don’t stuff the box until they have to. Minter will dial up coverages that will cause CJ problems, James is a beast and a major match up problem. Chargers D has not given up more than 20 on the road and that will not change against a struggling Texans offense. Harbaugh and staff > Ryans and staff. There will be no looking past the Texans with this coaching staff. If either team runs away with this game, it will be the Chargers. Chargers win, 34-16
Came in here due to an algorithm. As a Chargers fan, thank you for your complete analysis. Texans are a formidable opponent. Coach DeMeco is a great coach and CJ is from here. Nothing but respect for you all! Good luck and may the best team beat the KC Cheats and their refs!
When the playoffs start, nothing before that matters. If you're in the dance, you're in the dance.
As a Chargers fan here are some unmentioned names to watch out for.
DEFENSE
Daiyan Henley #0: Young, athletic, Pro-bowl snub LB
Poona Ford #95: Run game stuffer
Tuli Tuipulotu #45: 2nd year edge rusher who subs in at a high level
Cam Hart #20 and Tarheeb Still #29: 5th round rookie CBs that have had to start since early-mid season due to injury. Cam is physical and Still has good eye for the ball.
OFFENSE
Will Dissly #81: TE that can block at a high level and be a menace in short passing/screen situations. Bowling balls his way for those clock chewing first downs.
Derius Davis #12: Return specialist who has been getting involved in the passing game the past few weeks. Has serious top speed.
Joe Alt #76: He was mentioned, but damn hes been incredibly solid for a rookie tackle.
SPECIALIST
Dicker the Kicker #11: Very very very good kicker. Looks like Jim Carrey in Dumb and dumber. Incredibly lovable guy, can hit 50+ yarders without me needing to leave the room from stress.
Special Mention
Justin Herbert has been playing at an elite level this year. Hes thrown deep balls more often and more accurately than any other point in his career. When JK Dobbins is on the field he will sacrifice his body in pass protection to give Herbert time to throw. If Herbert has consistent time in the pocket then the Chargers can beat anyone in the league.
Good luck!
Educated breakdown 👊🏼⚡️
Herbert is severely underrated. Nobody questions Joe Burrow. Imagine if Herbert had Chase and Higgins.
I’m not Texans fan and I’m not familiar with the team or their players, I’m Chargers all day long. I’m not going to say that Texans are an easy win because this is playoff football. What I will say is these Chargers are different, they’re meaner than past teams.

Everyone is taking the chargers 😭 let’s hope for another browns play off game
Clean slate in the playoffs!
I hope so, so ex Jets coach Rex Ryan can shut up because he trashed talking about this team.
Definitely not going to happen different season last season this is not the same team
Cj stroud is to soft
@Yonny-r6u as a Chargers fan, I need him to shut up too. Media is giving the Texans extra fuel. I'm still scarred by our last playoff game 😂
Foley fatukasi is back, so that will really really help plugging up the middle. Defensive line needs to play smart and not let burrow escape the pocket, especially to his right.

Burrow ain't in the playoffs buddy!
@ 😂 not sure what I was thinking. Obviously meant Herbert haha
🥴
Unfortunately Tank will not be healthy and probably does not play a down next year. I think they are absolutely interested in bringing Diggs back or they brink in a dynamic WR.
Don’t take the chargers for granted…this will not be easy !
Pretty good analysis. Charger fan. Thank you, algorithm! Man, I forgot about Tank , that was horrible.
As a CHARGERS Fan...and real Chargers fan know that it's not going to be an easy game against Huston. For those who think it is they are nuts. It's going to be a good game. Let the best team win.
Chargers gonna go off this game easily
I more thought of Zeke's signing as insurance for Slater. He's a good blocker and a good option out of the backield
He’s washed. Non-event
lets have faith 🤘🏽
Game managers aren't making the throws that Herbert is. He not that just a careful slinger!
People are talking like Houston shouldn't even show up to play because the outcome is inevitable. The Chargers have played some good football no doubt, but they are not some juggernaut.
Again, that was some talking head, not us! ⚡️⚡️
who going to win
well done, Seth. I listen to you every morning on 610, you crack me up when you go on your tangents. Everyone wants to be a DOG until it is time to do DOG SH&TT!!!! I recall watching you play, you were a RABID DOG!! Texans going to get that DUB on Saturday!
Justin Herbert is a game manager that can throw the ball 65 yards downfield and rarely turns the ball over. That’s the problem.
Dude you are not very smart , you literally called Herbert "a game manager " stop commenting! The team is balanced, his wr aren't great except for Ladd so just slow down!😂😂😂😂
not sure how a “game manager” breaks every single record a QB can have in his first 5 years…. How does that work???? This isn’t Ryan Tannehil
If herbert is a game manager this year, then what is stroud? Less yards, less tds, more ints, worse completion %, that's factoring in what he said in terms of the throw aways, qbr and rating is worse also, has better wr and rb plus stroud is self proclaimed top 5.

Charger O line is not good at all 😂 and now there are injuries on top of that. Yes, the tackles are good, but the rest are straight trash.
@@cjcurtis8944bro what chargers have a top line in the league 🤣
Lets go texans🎉🎉🎉
Texans will be able to run. The question is the red zone. I'm curious if there will be a 4 headed monster back attack. JK Dobbins, Haskins, Vidal, Ezekiel Elliot.
People talk about Houstons pass rush.chargers have probowl tackles.
We just haven't played like a playoff team 8+ weeks. The only team in the playoffs worse than us is the Pittsburg Steelers. I also don't trust our offensive coaching to make adjustments and give us a fighting chance.
If Mack and bosa get goin… it’s gon be a long day
You so great at comments. Pleasure listening. Go bolts 27 - 13. Possible 34 - 17 Chargers.
Go chargers!

When did I say anything remotely like that?
Now watch the Texans put up 38 points on Saturday 😂 then 10 the next week 😂
You must not know about our Defense bro, Texans ain't putting up 17
Game manager, run heavy…. You obviously haven’t watched the chargers play 😂

Yes triggered...game manager implies qb getting carried.Trust me when i say ,nothing farther from the truth.
But that was precisely my point 😂. I added freaking captions, man!
