[Official?] Texans @ Steelers

[ima_drummer2k]

I'm worried about our D stopping the Steelers offense and getting off the field. D didn't look good this preseason. Hopefully it's because they didn't want to tip their hand before the regular season starts.

I think we can move the ball on offense, but we have to establish the run and win the time of possession.

Texans have Slaton listed at 3rd on the depth chart for this game, behind Green and Taylor. I gotta think he'll get some playing time, though. I can't see Green making it through the first quarter without getting hurt....

This game reminds me of the Carolina game from last year. No one (including me) gave the Texans a chance, but they wiped the floor with them after going down 0-14 early.

[Raven Lunatic]

I don't think there is anyway our defense effectively stops their offense. I can potentially see us stopping the run if our D-line plays inspired, but our pash rush has not been good in the preseason and our DBs are simply not good enough to cover semi-decent to good receivers for very long. Rothlesburger (yeah, I know it's not how it is spelled) takes care of the ball well and is pretty efficient passing, so even if we stop their run attack, he will pick us apart through the air. The only way I see the Texans winning this game is if our offense is as potent as it seemed during parts of the preseason and we just outscore them in a shootout. A timely turnover or two would help as well.

[BmwM3]

31-21.

We win of course. Slayton will remind us of Barry Sanders.

[MadMax]

We win of course. Slayton will remind us of Barry Sanders.


I think this expectation might be a little high. :)

[yobod]

This game will come down to whether we can get an efficient pass rush. If we can't, then Hines Ward, Santonio Holmes, Heath Miller and Limas Sweed will have their way with our secondary. If that happens, then the Steelers will get a comfortable lead (10-14 pts) and just pound the ball down our throats with Parker and Mendenhall. However, if the Texans can get a decent pass rush going, and maybe hit Big Ben a few times, he has the tendency to rush his throws, which would allow us to maybe force a turnover or two, and at least allow us to win the battle of possession time. If the Texans offense can stay on the field longer than the Steelers offense, I really like our chances in this game. But, if I had to choose right now which of the scenarios was more likely, it would definitely be the first one.

[Jet Blast]

The Steelers will be trying to be the first team to win six consecutive season openers since the Miami Dolphins won 11 consecutive season openers from 1992 to 2002. We all know which team ended that streak. :cool:

The Texans are 3-3 in season openers. For a team that has an overall record of 32-64 that's a pretty good record for week one games.

The Texans are undefeated at Heinz Field with a record of 1-0. Their sole victory came in 2002.

With those tidbits out of the way, I really think the Texans have an excellent chance of defeating the Steelers. The Steelers have one of the toughest schedules based on last year's opponent's records. They could very well overlook the Texans and be thinking ahead. If Pittsburgh has already chalked up a W, I feel the Texans will teach them a lesson just like they did against Dallas and Miami.

Texans 29
Steelers 17

Btw, Gus Johnson and Randy Cross will call the game for CBS.

[Uprising]

Can't wait, it seems like it's been forever.

Texans 21
Pitts 17

[ind0fo0]

^ for sure! can't wait! hopefully CBS in austin shows it!!!

[conquistador#11]

The key to the game is running the ball wide and keeping that dangerous d-line on their heels at all time. And the best way to stop their offence is to control the T.O.P. It's a new season, and I will just pretend Ahman green was holding out for a new contract, hope he does well.

I'm still undecided on what i'm going to prepare for snacks.

Yep, I'm in Nacogdoches and my DVR says it's on our CBS station. You guys should have it too. ...(unless they show the titans I guess....it's sad they show their games)

[stonecold999]

I would love to see the Texans get a W on Sunday, but everyone on the sports radio in town has been talking about an upset over the steelers. Im worried the Texans cant stop the running game of steelers.

[SwoLy-D]

EFF the terrible towels.

HOUSTON TEXANS 38

:o

¡VAMOS, TEXANS! :mad:31-21.

We win of course. Slayton will remind us of Barry Sanders.HAYMAKERS!!!! BARRY SANDERS!!!!

^ oh, GOSH, please don't let it be GUS FREAKIN' Johnson... :rolleyes:

[marks0223]

For the Texans to win they'll need to be a least +2 in turnovers and score 4-5 TD's.

Hou 34

Pitt 27

[emjohn]

I feel good about our defense up front against Parker, but dread pass-happy Ben against our secondary. Dunta can't get better fast enough.

I think our offense will do decently - I really like our receiver corps in the hands of Schaub.

[leroy420]

^ for sure! can't wait! hopefully CBS in austin shows it!!!

It's on in Austin.

[justtxyank]

I'm dreading this game in general. No pass rush and a poor secondary. Yikes.

Pitt- 21
Houston-17

This will be a game to show where the Texans need to be by the end of the year if they want a playoff spot. Dont get to depressed about this week cause when the Texans are 2-1 going into J-holeville to grab a hold of the wild card race all we will be screaming is "Bud, tell us how our a** tastes!"

10-6!

[SuperBeeKay]

I think we need a spectacular special teams game to give us an edge over Steelers who I think has an overrated D.

Steelers O is good but we dont know how the Texans will do...

Thus I say a 27- 30 loss for the Texans

[Stack24]

24-20 Texans Win

[No Worries]

56 - 3, Texans in a walk.

[The_Yoyo]

GOOOOOOOOOO STEELERS!!!!!!

So are you a Steeler fan? Or just a Texan hater?



I'm so excited about the start of the season! CAN'T FREAKING WAIT!!!! Got the fridge full of goodies....Just got the new surround sound set up!

WHOOOOOO!!!!

So are you a Steeler fan? Or just a Texan hater?
Nobody who lived in or near Houston in the 80s can be a fan of anything from Pittsburgh. It just ain't natural, almost like a Houstonian rooting for the Ja$$.

[texanskan]

We move the ball at will

D bends but does not break as we force 2 to's and hold them to 2 field goals as the also rack up the yards. A late td pulls the steelers within 7

[rrj_gamz]

I think we have enough to stop them..

Texans: 21

Pitt: 17

Rooting for the Steelers is like rooting for Nazis. Screw them.

Dammit, dammit, dammit.

I just realized that due to my church gig, I'm going to miss at least the first half hour of all but 4 Texans games this season. I wish the church was close to my house but it isn't, it's a 30 minute drive. ::sigh::

I'm happy my church went to Sunday evening services. :) But...in years past I've DVR'd...and it's amazing how quickly you'll catch up to the live event when you remove commercials.

I think all of you are predicting the Texans to score WAAY too many points.. This Pittsburg defense will be an elite unit, once again. Troy P is healthy as of right now, and the LB corps is younger and improved. Don't see the Texans putting up more than 14 against these guys.

If the Texans are gonna win this one... it's gonna be with their defense.

With that being said... the Texans D blows.

Interesting that you mention radio. I've tried to listen to 610 over the Internet for the games but it appears that they are blacked out for web broadcasts. Must be some sort of NFL rule.

Yeah it's an NFL rule, they want you to pay for it. However, 610 does usually get permission to have one game a year on the Internet stream and they promote it as brodcasting to the troops overseas.

[BigBenito]

37-10 Steelers.

[Uprising]

Damnit. Wish today was Sun. lol.

[baller4life315]

Or just a Texan hater?

Are the Texans even relevant enough to have haters?

34-13 Pittsburgh. You guys have no chance. ;)

[Win]

Any day the Steelers lose is a good day. This Sunday should be no exception.

GO TEXANS!!!!!

[radapharoah]

IIRC, we beat you at home back in 2002....with like only 47yrds of total offense.

:D

[baller4life315]

:D

Yeah, I was there. That game set professional football back about 200 years. Tommy Maddox had at least two back-breaking, horrible INT's that essentially mailed the game in for you guys. I remember standing on top of my seat drunk as a sailor screaming for Cowher to put in Kordell Stewart (yikes).

Fortunately, we now have one of the best players in football now manning that position so no more "Maddox/Stewart Mediocre Festival". :cool:

[LouisianaRocket]

Pulling for a Texans win(money reasons)

But, also pulling for Mendenhall to have at least 3-4 TD's(Fantasy football money league reasons)

[DonnyMost]

Schaub looking sharp.

Green looks old out there.

Brown holding his own.

[DonnyMost]

bull***** call on the spot. schaub had the first.

[ndnguy85]

wat the hell

[tmactoyao]

bs call.. schuab had a first..

[rocketsregle]

The season is only a few minutes old, and we're already on the wrong end of a call.

[Kam]

welp, time for Mario to take care of business.


that was a crap spotting.

[adw]

Awful spotting of the ball...wtf

[Remix]

I didnt know NBA refs worked the NFL during the offseason

[Bobblehead]

Already screwed by the refs and the Anderson placement sucked also!

[JBIIRockets]

why the hell did the refs reverse the call, they signaled first down, then decided to bring out the chains. texans got screwed on the spot. That was a 1st down.

[DonnyMost]

now they're challenging?

jeez we shouldn't have to go through this crap.

you don't overturn a first down spotting!

[rocketsregle]

And now we had to waste a challenge ... a win win for the Steelers.

[baller4life315]

Calm down, crybabies. That's why they implemented the CHALLENGE system. Let's take a look and see whether he actually got it or not.

[rocketsregle]

Calm down, crybabies. That's why they implemented the CHALLENGE system. Let's take a look and see whether he actually got it or not.

They had to waste a challenge when they shouldn't have had to.

[leroy420]

2 bull**** spots in a row. Getting screwed by the refs on the first drive of the first game of the season. Priceless.

[DonnyMost]

omfg, they upheld the call?

[MystikArkitect]

Holy cow...that's horrible.

[arkoe]

Wow... terrible.

[geeimsobored]

Sigh..

[baller4life315]

They had to waste a challenge when they shouldn't have had to.

If it was as obvious as you make it sound they would have overturned it. It wasn't.

[htownballa23]

wow, he clearly took a couple steps in, but then got pulled back after that

[leroy420]

BULL****

[leroy420]

If it was as obvious as you make it sound they would have overturned it. It wasn't.


Both 3rd and 4th down were **** spots and you know it.

[AGBee]

That was easy.

[rocketsregle]

If it was as obvious as you make it sound they would have overturned it. It wasn't.

They should have overturned it.

[SwoLy-D]

Freakin' call is going to set the tone for us... freakin' ZEBRAS... :rolleyes:

I'll repeat what KUBs was mouthing: "BEWLLSCHIETT... THAT's BEWLSCHEE-ET" :mad:

[DonnyMost]

Both 3rd and 4th down were **** spots and you know it.

So counting the challenge, 3 BS calls back to back.

A new record!

[Kam]

Calm down, crybabies. That's why they implemented the CHALLENGE system. Let's take a look and see whether he actually got it or not.


Schaub got it. The spotting of it was BS. There wasn't anything indisputable that could reverse it.

[astros148]

what a ****ing joke. Schab had that first down by a ****ing mile. **** off refs.

[radapharoah]

that was bull**** ****ing bull****....**** these mutha****ers

[slowmustang]

LOL the Ref actually signaled a first down non chalantly. WTF

[astros148]

LOL the Ref actually signaled a first down non chalantly. WTF
was one of the worst calls ive ever seen.

[Uprising]

That was some real horse **** there. That spot. WTF. :o

[astros148]

this team doesnt look good. Same old ****ing awful running game, and they move the ball on will :(

[SWTsig]

defense looked like sh!t... and the running game not looking worth a damn either.

[astros148]

andre johnson is a ****ing beast man. i mean holy ****

[DonnyMost]

Aren't these the same announcers who were responsible for "BODYSHOT!!! HAYMAKER!!!" last year?

[leroy420]

Great throw and catch by MS & AJ. Refs will spot it as a 1 yard gain.

[ROCKET RICH NYC]

nice block...i mean non-block

[Kam]

damn damn damn.

if AJ wants to have a baby with me, he can.



Schaub :(

[DonnyMost]

Leech whiffs on the block.

Schaub gets creamed.

So tired of this crap.

[SwoLy-D]

What? No flag for that late hit?!?!?!? He got rid of the ball!!! :mad: A*hole refs.

[AGBee]

Schaub might not make it past week 1.

[DonnyMost]

THROW THE BALL AWAY MATT, JEEZ

[Nick]

Schaub may not last beyond this game.

[NewRoxFan]

Nice block Leach :mad:

[geeimsobored]

Schaub's doing a good Carr impersonation

[astros148]

schuab is ****ing trash. he had ****ign time there. he acted like a pussy and run away. he had a good 3-5 seconds. He easily could've thrown it.

[TMac#1]

Shades of David Carr...ugh

[ROCKET RICH NYC]

And the OL woes still continues! :mad:

[arkoe]

Jebus, throw it away.

[leroy420]

WTF was that Schaub? Throw it away. Looked like the old #8 there.

[DaDakota]

Schaub is made of glass, the guy can't take a hit.

Some players know how to take a hit, Schaub....not so much.

DD

[JunkyardDwg]

Team's looking more like the Capers era than the Kubiak era right now.

[astros148]

Cut ****ign schaub. Complete garbage.

[Master Baiter]

Way to overreact people.

[radapharoah]

Cut ****ign schaub. Complete garbage.
pleas STFU!!!
what the **** are you talking about? just STFU now!
Thanks :)

[Oski2005]

Looks like we are gonna get lucky here.

[leroy420]

Bring it back b****es

[Master Baiter]

Ha, losers.

[radapharoah]

WTF? :confused:

[astros148]

lol we got lucky there. that wasnt a touch.

[baller4life315]

WOW, you guys are lucky. Keep complaining about the refs -- we just got a 75 yard gain erased. Keep crying.

[radapharoah]

tit for tat bitches

[cdastros]

texans got a break on that call. That is a makeup on the bad 4th down call.

[htownballa23]

thank you, C.C. Brown

[SWTsig]

that "offensive passing interfernce" negates that poor 1st down spotting... our secondary is atrocious.

[astros148]

Our pass rush is pathetic. Dont even blitz if you cant bring the heat.

[cdastros]

Texans defense is not good.

[astros148]

Texans defense is not good.
wow you're smart!

[baller4life315]

that "offensive passing interfernce" negates that poor 1st down spotting... our secondary is atrocious.

A 1st down inside the five and a 1st down at the 40-yard-line are too different things but whatever floats your boat. ;)

[Air Langhi]

Texas defense = astros pitching

[radapharoah]

A 1st down inside the five and a 1st down at the 40-yard-line are too different things but whatever floats your boat. ;)
yeah one was a change of poss. and the other wasnt...whats your point? we got screwed

[f_chowd0696]

ugh :( ..... atleast the Rockets will be good this season.

Another long season for the Texans.... I give another 1 season before the fans in Houston just give up on this poor excuse of a franchise.

[astros148]

Texas defense = astros pitching
dude our defense is suppose to be our strong point

[JunkyardDwg]

Jeez...with all the whining here it's a wonder why some of you watch the games in the first place.

[JuLiO-R-]

Haha this thread is awesome...giving up hope in the 1st qtr of the season? :D

[astros148]

okay plz stop them here. For gods sakes.

[TMac#1]

Rush defense looks pretty decent, but pass defense is nonexistent. the secondary is flat out bad.

[Cannonball]

Roethlisberger has to fall on the ball and it still takes us 5 seconds to get to him.

[f_chowd0696]

Haha this thread is awesome...giving up hope in the 1st qtr of the season? :D
dude... stop living in your hole.... its been what?? 7 seasons or so? We havent sniffed the playoffs. As a Texans fan, we should know the makings of a horrible team. No pass defense = another long year for our poor Texans.

[astros148]

this team is a joke.

[radapharoah]

Rush defense looks pretty decent, but pass defense is nonexistent. the secondary is flat out bad.
way to jenz it ;)

[JunkyardDwg]

So far Pitt has clearly come to play today.

dude... stop living in your hole.... its been what?? 7 seasons or so? We havent sniffed the playoffs. As a Texans fan, we should know the makings of a horrible team. No pass defense = another long year for our poor Texans.

Taking the over on that...

The secondary may be pathetic, but the schemes we're using are effing terrible on D...

[TMac#1]

If I had to pick a place to open my season, going to Pittsburgh would probably last on the list. Tough way to open the season. We're not going to win this game, but we do need to play better than this.

[f_chowd0696]

Over under we lose by 30?
over...

[RedRaiderRocket]

Perfect start for me. Had Willie Parker last season did everything but did not score a touchdown already has as much as he had last season. This season I got Tom Brady hes already hurt. Texans can their a$$es$ raped.

[astros148]

why are we running the ball on back to back plays for gods sakes. wow

[RocketsFanSam]

nooooooo

[Kam]

its just not the Texans day.

[farrisdabis]

A one-handed interception? This is so excruciating to watch.

[DonnyMost]

I can't believe I waited all summer for this :(

Yeah...it's not like I haven't noticed this horrible start to a franchise....I just think it's hilarious how all that *New Season Optimism* can go down the drain 15 minutes into the first game of the season. And as I type this....interception.

[DonnyMost]

Awesome late flag, the Steelers could get the refs to bring them a Latte with the way this is going.

[astros148]

I can't watch this crap anymore.

I can't believe I waited all summer for this :(

im so pissed. i cant beleive i had hope in this ****ing team. what a joke.

[TMac#1]

I had a bad feeling about this game, it reminds me of that opener in Buffalo in 05.

[DaDakota]

The defense has to be tired......the offense can't even get a first down...come on Schaub so some growth stop looking like David Carr.

DD

[mrdave543]

hahahahahhahaa

diaf.

[leroy420]

[SWTsig]

jesus tap-dancing christ.... 21-0!

are we really that bad???

[JunkyardDwg]

This team is doing basically everything wrong that they can do wrong.

Absolutely embarrassing for a team with playoff hopes.

[f_chowd0696]

so... who are some number 1 prospects in this year's draft?

[astros148]

Awesome late flag, the Steelers could get the refs to bring them a Latte with the way this is going.
are you retarded? he almsot tore his ****ing head off his body. stop being a homer

[Air Langhi]

I thought they were going to lose, but I didn't expect the defense to be so terrible.

[rox0607champs]

i think they let that first series get to them and now they are just playing pathetic :mad: .......this sucks the texans are getting embarrased :mad:

for real rick smith the DC needs to go now!

Just when the Texans made us sick.................God made it all better by sending us RON!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rocketsregle]

I don't understand what Richard Smith is trying to do on defense.

[Kam]

it's going to be a tough first half to the season.

were losing in offense, defense, and specials team is crap. davis hasnt had a good run back.

[f_chowd0696]

good another crappy season for the Texans... maybe the city can actually concentrate on a decent franchise this season with the Rockets.

[astros148]

if we dont score on this drive im turning this rubish off.

[MystikArkitect]

That early call set the tone early, followed up by the two Schaub sacks. We need a *big* play to get us back in this thing. I'm looking at you Andre.

[Chuck 4]

I expected us to lose, but at least look like a pro team...

[mrdave543]

looks like wheels on bandwagon are falling off early.

bash away!!

[DonnyMost]

are you retarded? he almsot tore his ****ing head off his body. stop being a homer

Of course it was a facemask.

But when the play is dead, and everyone is standing around scratching their butt, and some player whines to a ref, THEN gets a flag, its a freaking joke.

What if Schaub got up after that 4th down and bitched to the ref after the bad spot until he moved the ball? That'd be swell.

[f_chowd0696]

Just when the Texans made us sick.................God made it all better by sending us RON!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RON is our savior

[rox0607champs]

haha this looks like a highschool game just pathetic

[raw10628]

Might want to keep in mind that Pitt has one of the top defenses in the league. They can be relentless at times and they're showing it today. They're a damn good team that nobody is really paying much attention too.

[DonnyMost]

looks like wheels on bandwagon are falling off early.

bash away!!

troll troll troll your boat

I love to bash... what bandwagon? Do the Texans deserve a bandwagon? The worst starting expansion franchise in league history? Yes I have really good reason not to believe in this team...

im not talking about titans...just the laughable team you guys call the texans.

[cdastros]

This OL just sucks right now.

[astros148]

I feel so sorry for Andre Johnson, hes going to waste his awesome career with this pathetic team.

As a Houston native, im sad to agree with you that one of our sports franchises is quite laughable...

[mrdave543]

Wow...just wow!!

[astros148]

lmfao

[DaDakota]

WTF is Schaub doing?

I mean he is FRICKEN HORRIBLE !!!

I played QB better than that in College in flag football...SHEESH.......he is tossing it right to the guy......DANG !

[rox0607champs]

SEASON FAIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AGBee]

Sage, Sage, Sage!

[baller4life315]

You guys gotta get Schaub out of there. He's completely rattled.

[TMac#1]

WTF is Schaub thinking?? Throwing into triple and quadruple coverage.

Get Sage in there. He should have been given the job after Carr left anyway.

[f_chowd0696]

I feel so sorry for Andre Johnson, hes going to waste his awesome career with this pathetic team.
Texans should trade him to the Colts out of sympathy.

[adw]

Ok Sage time.

[DonnyMost]

Mario... a lone bright spot

[baller4life315]

Nice strip...Mario Williams is a beast.

[radapharoah]

mario!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad:

[SWTsig]

playoffs here we come!

[DreamRoxCoogFan]

well that was a nice change on the fumble, but schaub is playing turrible.

[rox0607champs]

Sage your time has come...............awesome are defense is going to score :o

[Nick]

I would just kick the FG now... at least get some points.

Running the offense right now can only lead to potential problems.

[Kam]

Pittsburgh D is really good.

Nice play by Mario.


Damn their D is good.

[TMac#1]

Mario... a lone bright spot

And the offense goes backwards

[DreamRoxCoogFan]

both lines are getting ownd.

[astros148]

why in ****s sakes ar ethey ****ing running the game. holy **** this is pisssing me off so ****ing bad.

[f_chowd0696]

playoffs here we come!
aww how cute... two players on the Texans are above average... good for them!!!

[DaDakota]

Shotgun formation...get r done.

[itzIce]

# 8 Curse >>>>> Madden Curse

Schaub, change your number!

[radapharoah]

chris myers is getting manhandled!!
why are we running twice in a row? if shcuab is shell shocked gets his ass out of there

[wallyj12]

mario looks amazing...everyone else on the team is on the opposite side of that spectrum right now

[rocketsregle]

I don't understand what Richard Smith is trying to do on defense.

Kubiak also leaves a lot to be desired in his play calling.

[rox0607champs]

I would just kick the FG now... at least get some points.

Running the offense right now can only lead to potential problems.
lol i almost fell of my chair when i read this....its funny but at this point true

[Chuck 4]

RON is our savior

Put him out there and see if he can cover someone in the Secondary...probaly be an upgrade.

[arkoe]

why are we running twice in a row? if shcuab is shell shocked gets his ass out of there

This is reminiscent of when Kubiak said Carr, "I no longer trust you."

[astros148]

dude wtf is thsi 2003? We have no O line, no QB, NO RB, wtf is going on

[DonnyMost]

Every time Ahman Green touches the ball an Angel loses its wings.

[DaDakota]

WUSSY CALL !

DD

[radapharoah]

WTF kubes are we back to the old dump it off david carr offense :confused:

[rox0607champs]

Put him out there and see if he can cover someone in the Secondary...probaly be an upgrade.
throw chuck and dorsey in their maybe even deke :D

[DreamRoxCoogFan]

thank god. at least not a shutout.

[JBIIRockets]

The offense is just inept.

[f_chowd0696]

How cute... the Texans get to score three points... awww

[f_chowd0696]

The offense is just inept.
the defense is inept.... damn this team is inept.

[rox0607champs]

i thought david carr was gone

[BMoney]

If they don't have enough confidence to go for an f-ing touchdown when they get the ball in the redzone, then they should get Schaub out of there. I am having David Carr flashbacks.

[BigBenito]

My 37-10 prediction just became a little more probable.

[nWo34Life]

Texans offense = astros pitching

Edited it for you, AL.

[Smokey]

Last drive = raising the white flag.

Get on the bus Texans!

[nWo34Life]

The offense is just inept.

Our offensive line is crap. They're getting torn up by the Pittsburgh DL.

[DonnyMost]

our only hope of a TD died when Demeco fell to the turf laughing watching Amobi try and lead block on Willie Parker after the fumble recovery

[DreamRoxCoogFan]

[radapharoah]

[DonnyMost]

At least Mario is on pace for 64 sacks :D

[Kam]

donnymost beat me to it

[TMac#1]

Mario is unstoppable...special player

[astros148]
