ESPN FIRST TAKE | Stephen A. Smith HEATED Houston Texans Are NOT In Trouble With Nico Collins Injury 

With CJ, the open guy is hit #1.

Now is the time Steph diggs can truly show Buffalo and the world he’s still a number 1. I’m excited to see what happens these 4 weeks

Bro they been here before last year. Nico was hurt against the bengals and you k ow what happened? He threw for over 350 yards against the bengals. I’m not worried I’m the slightest. Dell will get more looks and targets so will diggs that’s why you construct the roster with lots of talent to help when one goes down

With all the injuries and how bad our O line has been playing and being 4/1 wait till we fully healthy

I love how they forget about Strouds safety blanket last season… Dalton Shultz!!!!! After Nico went down He turned to Shultz on break away plays in the 2nd half…. I do think it’s a little overreaction with Collins being out compared to other teams… on other teams Nico being out it definitely concerning due to the fact nobody else in the league has a WR room like Houston… They have 3 Number 1 receivers. And just because people hate him doesn’t mean he trash or not good lol… it’s just plain hate but Diggs is definitely a number 1 in the league just may not be where you like it.. But ultimately I know Houston will be fine especially the type of players Demyco Ryans coaches up. I know the offense hasn’t been what us Fans expected but also it’s also unrealistic to expect Houston to go out and score 40+ 50+ points a game even with a roster like Houston.. I think everyone including me was a little too overhyped coming into this season

Don’t forget tank is healthy he’s gonna take the top off the def and Diggs is gonna get the easy dumb offs and yac

I’m actually in favor of adding Mixon to IR and getting both of them back at the same time. We play detroit then and we will need both of them if we are going to pull out a W

I feel like if diggs steps up hes just being a captain he knows his role

It will be interesting to see the play calling, without Collins or Mixon. I’m not worried at all though we’ve got a great qb. Go Texans!

Texans receiving core has depth and Stroud is elite. Tank, Diggs, Schultz, Wood, etc. They'll be fine. Last year Tank was their best receiver and Texans kept winning once he got hurt. Great QBs figure it out

I agree with Stephen A Smith 💯 percent. This is not a very difficult stretch for Texans not to overcome. Worse case scenario 2-2 and they’re still in good shape. Everyone is focused on Diggs and forgot Tank Dell hasn’t even gotten started. He was on pace for 1,000 yards last season with a couple of 100+ receiving yard games. I see Texans winning against Patriots and Colts. Joe Mixon will be back against the Packers.

Dell and metchie with Diggs still got enough.. When Mixon and Nico come back that much better also dont forget Shultz they will do what they do best find a way

You haave a point BUTTTT He had this haooen to hon last year. NO TANK OR NICO. He did just fine. Now at least he has Tank and Diggs.

It's no pressure, we have an elite core , nico needs to be healthy for the long longrun,

Diggs has been balling n running the ball well, I think he will do well in a position he’s been in with CJ as your QB lets goooo ready for it

Good take brotha 💯🫡

YOU FIND content LIKE THIS FOR ALL TEAMS BUT 1

Let's be real here, the injuries is going to unfortunately cost Texans this year. Game over -Texans Fan

We can contain AR fully healthy.

Funny the media wants to over hype our texans we just glad we winning games 3 years winning 4 games all season back to back we on a good path now

#1 No such thing as an "easy win" in a league full of professionals. Please don't jinx us. #2 Mixon has practiced almost this whole week and will likely be back this week or next. #3 C.J. is not a "favorite" QB. He's going to hit the open guy. #4 We have Tank, Diggs, Shultz, Jordan, Woods...... Nico maximizes our chance to win any game, but we are not going to just fall off a cliff without him.

Don't forget bad o line

Man wtf is this guy talking bout he just talking in circle please stop talking football

Hamstring can take months to heal. I know ! I had one

Metch is there to fill the void an we got Woods

We can beat the Colts and we have shown that we can put 45 on Joe Flacco. We can literally send Joe Flacco to the tent.

Dont forget about Dell, he is a dog too.

Tryna act like diggs aint a good reciver top 10 top 15 is wild
