After they fell behind 24-0 in the first quarter in a loss to Indianapolis, coach Bill OBrien is putting it on his team to change things.I think the players need to make up their minds that theyre going to start well, OBrien said.Quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick isnt sure why theyve struggled so much early in games, but knows they have to figure out a way to turn it around.Just got to come out more focused I think, he said. More focused and ready to go. Just continue to make it a point of emphasis.Houston has scored just 14 points in the first quarter this season and all of those points came in a win over Oakland in Week 2. Since then theyve been incapable of doing anything on offence in the opening frame.OBrien said it might be as simple having one good thing happen early so theyll have something to build on.If we start the game with a positive play a€” first down, gain four, gain five; second-and-5, then gain three (and) then its a positive or manageable third down, OBrien said. We get that first first-down, were able to get into a good tempo, a good rhythm and were going.Many have blamed Houstons tough starts on quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, who was 0 for 4 in a first quarter against the Colts where the team gained just two yards. But OBrien took up for his quarterback on Friday.When you look at the film, the film never lies, OBrien said. What the film shows us is that everybody on offence has to play better. Everybody. The line has to play better, the backs have to play better, the tight ends, the receivers and we have to coach better.Still, Fitzpatrick is quick to point out that he needs to do more early in games.There is still a lot of room for improvement, he said. Weve talked about getting off to better starts, but when we get in our groove you see what this offence can be. Custom Detroit Tigers Jerseys. Its just a matter of doing it all the time.Perhaps more troubling than the slow start by the offence Thursday night was that the defence and special teams were also terrible in the first quarter. The defence allowed three touchdowns and a field goal in the first quarter and the special teams unit was surprised by an onside kick which the Colts recovered. OBrien said that when he watched the game film on Friday he saw that his team made an error on each of the games first 32 plays.Weve got to tackle better, he said. We gave up too many hit-and-yardage type plays because we didnt tackle, the first guy didnt make the tackle. Special teams, we just cant allow that to happen, that onside kick. Thats not good.The good news for the Texans is that theyve got a few extra days to prepare for their next game since they dont play again until a Monday night matchup at Pittsburgh on Oct. 20. Theres also a strong possibility they could get top overall pick Jadeveon Clowney back for that game, which would provide a boost to a defence that has been led by a stellar six games by defensive end J.J. Watt. Watt had two sacks on Thursday night and returned a fumble for a touchdown for his third score this season.Clowney has been out since having arthroscopic surgery on his right knee after injuring it in Houstons opener on Sept. 7.Hes progressing, OBrien said. I would say thats still 50-50 whether he plays in that game or not, but hes getting better. Hes working at it.Clowney is eager to get back, but hes leaving it to the medical staff to decide when hes ready to play.I talked to the trainers the other day about how Im responding to the drills and everything theyve got me doing, he said. Just time will tell. Its the healing process right now.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Cheap Soccer Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Hockey Jerseys Nike NFL Jerseys China Cheap Nike MLB Jerseys China Wholesale Baseball Jerseys China Wholesale College Jerseys Cheap Jerseys From China Wholesale Jerseys Near Me Cheap Jerseys Online Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Soccer Jerseys China Cheap NCAA Jerseys Authentic Cheap Nike NBA Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic MLB Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Throwback Jerseys Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China ' ' '
