The Texans are 0-4 after losing to the Vikings at home Sunday and JJ Watt was visibly frustrated. Watt said after the game something needs to change, though he would only point to himself, controlling what he can.
Watt called the winless start “terrible, brutal” and “depressing.”
“We obviously have to do something different,” Watt said after the game. “We’re 0-4. Whatever we’re doing is not working. Something needs to change. Something needs to be different. The only thing I know I can do is work harder, control what I can control. Work harder, be better at my job, do better at my job, be better in my gap, make more plays, get off of double teams. Get a sack. Get a turnover. Get a takeaway. I’ll control what I can control.”
The Texans made a big change when they fired head coach Bill O’Brien on Monday.
24 hours after the news, Watt took to Twitter and posted a cryptic photo showing the sun shining bright on the NRG stadium field that most took as a sign of him saying a lot about the firing without saying anything.

The Texans had a season-high nine quarterback hits against the Vikings, but it wasn’t enough to make up for another poor performance against the run, losing the turnover battle, and more inconsistency on offense.
