Fan reaction to Texans benching Brock Osweiler


It happened. After signing Brock Osweiler to a four-year, $72 million contract this offseason, the Texans benched the quarterback in its 14th game of the season. The team was trailing 13-0 to the Jags at the time, and following two more Osweiler interceptions, Houston pulled its "franchise" quarterback.

It's probably the right decision, but nevertheless, people couldn't believe. Everyone in the stadium went nuts when they made the decision…

…as did people on Twitter.
