Starkey & Mueller

Houston morning show host Sean Pendergast joined the show. Sean said the Texans defense is the real deal, so don’t fool yourself thinking it’s an overrated unit. Sean expects the Texans to throw a little bit of confusion at Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers offense because they know how Rodgers can still win with his brain. Sean believes Derek Stingley could follow DK Metcalf around for the entire game. He mentioned the Texans adding some different blitz packages that we haven’t seen yet this season. How will the field surface play a factor? Sean said there shouldn’t be a concern with the Texans offense going off, but their keys are cliché – protect CJ Stroud and protect the football. He told us the Texans offensive line has been ‘average at-best’ this season.
