[Official] Texans @ Titans

[mrdave543]

9-21 12:00 on CBS


Not sure when the official thread will be created, but I figured starting this thread might bring some normalcy back to sports fans.


My score prediction is Titans 27-Texans 13

***Saw this posted on another forum and I agreed with the prediction, so figured I will post it****


Houston Texans @ Tennessee Titans Game Predictions


Overview:

The Houston Texans come in after an unexpected bye week with the unavailability of Reliant Stadium previous to a dismal 38-17 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Houston will look to take care of some of the weak points presented in they're last game, including the failure to stop the run or cause any disruptance with Ben Roethlisberger whatsoever. As Big Ben went 13 of 14 with a pair of TD's, complemented with nearly 180 rushing yards as a team, the Texans defense looked awful. Schaub will try to limit his mistakes and protect the football, to get a good flow going, something he was unable to do 2 weeks ago.

The Tennessee Titans are 2-0 after a defensive battle vs Jacksonville and a strong victory vs the Bengals, both teams were 0-2. The Titans will look to send another team home without a victory, as Kerry Collins will get his 2nd start of the season. Although he didn't play spectacular, which was near impossible in the 50 mph winds of Cincy, Collins managed the game and made the throws needed to win the game. Chris Johnson looks to put together yet another stellar performance, as last week he galloped for 109 yards on just 19 carries. Tennessee has arguably the best defense in the national football league, and will take advantage of the Texans lack of offensive weapons, as well as try to get a running game going early in attempt to put the game away in the 1st half.

Prediction:


team 1 2 3 4 OT F
HOU 0 3 3 7 -- 13
TEN 3 10 7 3 -- 23

Passing Leaders
Kerry Collins:15/27, 168 yards, TD, INT.
Matt Schaub: 20/28, 184 yards, TD, INT.

Rushing Leaders:
Chris Johnson: 16 carries, 101 yards, TD.
Lendale White: 15 carries, 45 yards.
Steve Slaton: 14 carries, 37 yards.
Ahman Green: 10 carries, 42 yards.

Receiving Leaders:
Justin Gage: 4 receptions, 40 yards, TD.
Justin McCareins: 4 receptions, 83 yards.
Andre Johnson: 8 receptions, 98 yards, TD.
Owen Daniels: 5 receptions, 44 yards.

Defensive Stats:
Michael Griffin: 4 tackles, INT.
Jevon Kearse: 2 tackles, 1.5 Sack, FF, FR.
Mario Williams: 4 tackles, 1.0 Sack
Demeco Ryans: 11 tackles.


Fantasy Impact:

Starts:
1. Titans Defense - If you haven't been already, now is a perfect chance. Neither the Jaguars nor Bengals could get more then a single TD on this defense. They will hit you in the mouth and look for another dominant effort this week, as long as Fat Al is out there.

2. Chris Johnson - Hes going to run wild this week. Houston doesn't have the speed on defense to keep up with him. His carries are steadily increasing so look for him to get around 20-22 this game for about 100 yards and a possible TD.

3. LenDale White - TD's in each of the last 2 games. Look for the Titans to feed him in the goal line as he has proven a valuable threat for the 6's instead of the 3's we are all so sick of.

Bench:
1. Kerry Collins: Hes not going to put up the numbers, not because he can't, but because the Titans runningbacks will be having so much fun they won't need to throw the ball more then 25 times. Don't expect Collins to do much.

2. Matt Schaub: the new rule of fantasy being added to the book is don't start quarterbacks facing the Titans defense. David Garrard and Carson Palmer both had career bad days, look for Schaub to take a beating like he has in the past.

3. Texans Runningbacks: Tennessee's front 7 is as tough as it gets, don't expect Texan runnignbacks to do much of anything.

thanks for your post but i see it a little different, i think the texans will come strong this game. they will put pure heart and desire into this one not only for themselves but houston, the devastation has been bad and they are going to put on a show for the fans!

texans 27 - titans 24

texans 27 - titans 24

i thought of the same thing too for the Astros, but they came out flat, and lost 3 games in a row.. Therefore, Texans will lose this one and as well as the next one.. 1st win will be Oct.5 home opener against the Colts... well I hope Im wrong....

[ryan17wagner]

Titans are just too good. 24-13 Titans.

the difference being the texans got an extra week to where the 'stros were put right back out there still in the middle of devastation, having to play sunday night and monday afternoon. the texans don't have to do that! which is why they will be ready. IMO

texans 27 - titans 24

I thought about them coming out strong for the game as well, but I just think the toll Ike has taken on the city will be too much for the players to overcome. I am sure plenty of the players families are without power/water or damage to their houses and might still be stuck in town, I cant imagine the players minds will be strictly on football.

I do think the bye week will help the texans for this game, but in the long run, will make it really difficult for them to succeed for the rest of the season.

Only difference is the Texans will have two weeks between games by the time they play the Titans...plenty of time to rest, to put the horrible performance against the Steelers out of their minds (but not long enough to completely erase the memory), plenty of time to deal with whatever problems Ike caused them.

Astros didn't have such luxury.

What sucks is they could easily be 0-3 when they have their first home game; that'd be a tough hole to climb out of (not to mention their first home game is against Indy).

those are some good points dave, but watching some of the texans videos, it seems like they will be ready but whether or not they run out of gas in the end has not yet been determined!!! lets not count them out quite yet! they may suprise us, but hey thats why we are here.

[Uprising]

ehh....27-13 Texans.

[Jet Blast]

Here's hoping the Texans don't have a negative effect from Ike.

I'm thinking Slaton will get the start Sunday since Green didn't practice today.

Texans 19
Titans 12

Btw, Kevin Harlan and Rich Gannon will call the game for CBS.

I don't know, the two weeks between your first 2 games is quite a bit of time. Not to mention that they probably didn't practice a whole lot nor workout that hard, while it was time to rest, they shouldn't have been that fatigued to begi with. But I sure hope you're right.

Unfortunately the Titans' D is the real deal and they've but damn near perfect the first 2 games. I think we can rattle Collins a bit if we can get to him but we need to find out how to stop the Johnson/White duo because they've been running all over teams.

Slaton was to start against Baltimore. So, I don't think that's going to change now.

GO TEXANS!

Give the City of Houston something to smile about...kick the s*** out of Bud's team!

[Major Malcontent]

Kubes owes H-Town a win..his son cost the Coogs a shot to win with a late INT for Colorado St.

[radapharoah]

Titans are just too good. 24-13 Titans.
look I love the titans d...I drafted them on my ff team....and I picked up chris jonhson on waviers before week 1...so I know what they are capable of, but lets look at their opponents so far...they beat the jags and the bengals...both teams have looked awful so far....the bengals got manhandled by the ravens with their rookie QB so that does anything for me... and the jags look like they are falling apart... David Gerrard is coming back to earth and their running game has not been there...
I think if the texans come out swinging they could very well take this game.
I think the titans might be overlooking this game and the texans will be hungry to get back on the field...
texans 28- titans 17

book it.

Uh oh, a book it! Everytime I've heard that, it's been a loss for that person's pick.

[BigBenito]

Benito w/ the save:


texans 17- titans 28

book it.



You're welcome ;)

[Egghead]

alright u said to bench schaub.... but my qbs are doing bad right now i have garrard, palmer, and schaub lol.... which 2 should I start?

[radapharoah]

alright u said to bench schaub.... but my qbs are doing bad right now i have garrard, palmer, and schaub lol.... which 2 should I start?
damn your qbs are real bad...I drafted schaub but I got I also drafted cutler so Im sitting pretty :D

anyways start schaub and palmer...the jags are going to limit garrards throws and no doubt will try to run every chance they get against indys horrid run defense....Palmer and schaub have had horrible starts but are much more likely to threw for tds next week...the texans and the bengals have no chance of rushing for tds next week against the titans and giants so look for them to air the ball....
start schaub and palmer
sit garrard

[radapharoah]

alright u said to bench schaub.... but my qbs are doing bad right now i have garrard, palmer, and schaub lol.... which 2 should I start?
oh and if possible drop garrard and pick up JT o'sullivan from the 49ers if he is still a FA in your league( which he probably is)....look for him to throw for 250+ yards and 2 TDs this week against the ugly detriot defense.

[EddieWasSnubbed]

Slaton will break out.

139 yards on 22 carries. Two tds.

The Titans D is overrated.

The Texans front 7 is underrated.

Collins will have to beat us with his arm, which won't happen.

Texans 28
Titans 17


I wish we could wear Oilers Jerseys for this game.

You guys need to give our team credit. Pittsburgh's looking like one of the best in the league, and they capitalized on Schaub's poor game.

[BrooksBall]

Football isn't my thing but I'm going with a surprising rout:

Texans 33 - Titans 10

[Egghead]

oh and if possible drop garrard and pick up JT o'sullivan from the 49ers if he is still a FA in your league( which he probably is)....look for him to throw for 250+ yards and 2 TDs this week against the ugly detriot defense.
JT isint there..some1 picked him up b4 me. so which 2 should I start Garrard, Palmer, or Schaub?

[radapharoah]

see above post for the logic

[Egghead]

see above post for the logic

Oops i didnt see it

[BMoney]

The Titans are going to win this one big. I think with Collins starting and Chris Johnson emerging as a real homerun threat, they have just enough on offense to go with a punishing defense. (Incidentally, I would *love* to see the Texans back up the brinks truck and sign Haynesworth as FA...he's a beast). I think they are this year's version of last year's Jacksonville Jaguars (if that makes any sense). I hate the Titans, but it's just the way I see it. Jeff Fisher is one of the best in the business.

[garthomps]

Here's a link to catch the game online:

[Smokey]

Houston will win...the Houston Oilers franchise.

[Mr. Clutch]

Houston will win...the Houston Oilers franchise.

That's kind of weird, since they don't exist anymore.

[ima_drummer2k]

I predict the Texans come out flat because of the hurricane bye-week. I'm afraid of what Vandenbosh is going to do to our rookie LT....and our QB...

Tits 25 (6 field goals and a defensive TD)
Texans 3

[rhino17]

Anyone have an online link that works so i can watch?

[Chuck 4]

Umm...is the game still on CBS? Theyre live from the Bengals/Giants on my TV...???

[Smokey]

It's on KHOU :confused:

[Summer Song Giver]

WTF, Bengals Giants? Who gives a ****?

[Landlord Landry]

WTF is this? I don't care about the effin giants/bengals
:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

[VesceySux]

The Titans winning today is the greatest lock in the history of the universe. In fact, there is actually a 146% chance of this happening, which is beyond the laws of probability.

Please work, jinx.

[Smokey]

What channel are you guys watching? I guess the Texans suck so bad only KHOU is carrying the game in Texas :p

[Chuck 4]

What the hell is going on? Wheres the game?

[Smokey]

Titans wearing columbia blue!!!

[jmejia]

Where the hell is the game. Who gives a crap about the Giants or Bengals

[DonnyMost]

its not on HD, this is retarded.

FU comcast.

** they fixed it.. finally

Nice block by walter on that CB

INT!! GO REEVES

[Smokey]

Texans 3 and out on first drive.

I still don't get why you guys are getting the Bengals game.

[radapharoah]

WTF....what is going on?????
what channel is it on????
khou? what channel is that?
I have dish and I dont know what channel to tune into

[Chuck 4]

CBS is trash. FIrst they cant get our game on on time, then when they do it is not in HD. Cheap asses...

[VesceySux]

SWEET!!

Screw you, Kerry.

[Smokey]

Damn you Collins!!!

[Kam]

teehee.


defense.!

lets please punch this in.

[DonnyMost]

Titans wearing columbia blue!!!

I think they changed from Columbia blue to some kind of darker color in TN.

[arkoe]

Oh great, upconversion.

[DonnyMost]

damn AJ almost had it

[DonnyMost]

first sack of the day

barf

[Kam]

well thats crap.


we needed six. i didnt start Kris Brown today.

[Chuck 4]

damn AJ almost had it

Damn, he usually pulls those down.

[DonnyMost]

KB is money at least

[VesceySux]

So, we have the lead, but we have negative yards for the game? LOL.

[Chuck 4]

Kris Brown is automatic...He sure gets enough practice.

[rsx_htown]

Man brown got pushed aside like a child by haynesworth on that sack

[Faos]

Did HD just kick in?

[DonnyMost]

only the Texans could make the Titans WRs look good

[BrooksBall]

Where's the defense? That was too easy.

[rhino17]

PLEASE!

i need an online link

[arkoe]

Put in Sage.

[DonnyMost]

brown got smoked

amazing int by griff

i hate football

[Kam]

you dont need a link. lets just not watch this game.

[Raven Lunatic]

I swear to God. This team WANTS me to stop watching them right now. This is so unbelievably frustrating.

[BrooksBall]

Is there really any reason to challenge? It was clearly an INT.

[Groogrux]

Good God we are terrible.

[Smokey]

Looked like a pick.

[cwaynemiller]

Tank time!!!!
1st round draft choice. Get rid of Green other non acheivers

[rocketfan83]

I bet we see Sage before the end of the game.

[Raven Lunatic]

brown got smoked

amazing int by griff

i hate football

Brown did fine that play. He forced his man way outside. Schaub had to step up. He didn't really step up, but he had time to pass.

[DonnyMost]

He may not have had possession before going out of bounds, but theyre not gonna overturn it anyway

[arkoe]

Kubiak is terrible at picking plays to challenge.

[Raven Lunatic]

Kubiak needs to hire someone else to decide which plays to challenge. He has the worst percentage of overturned challenges in the league. He needs to quit wasting his damned timeouts.

[f_chowd0696]

lol.... people were nagging on me last game saying that this is another failure of a season. Well... The Texans are officially the worst franchise in NFL history.

[BMoney]

Kubiak has never won a challenge.

[Smokey]

Put Simms in.

[DonnyMost]

Brown did fine that play. He forced his man way outside. Schaub had to step up. He didn't really step up, but he had time to pass.

Did fine?

You mean basically falling down and then desperately trying to catch up to VB before Matt got smacked?

Schaub avoided the sack, Brown didn't help.

[DonnyMost]

Watch the titans challenge the fumble and win.

[tmactoyao]

yay 2 turnovers
second fumble r ecovered by ryans this year :D
don't give up , althought i'd still put sage in

[rocketsregle]

The Defense has come to play. Shaub needs to get out of his funk.

[Kam]

man, this game is going to be real ugly.



atleast the texans are forcing turnovers, which is always good. and now if schaub can only stop giving away posessions, we will be fine.

[rhino17]

link please!!!!!!!

[arkoe]

link please!!!!!!!

www.google.com

[Raven Lunatic]

Maybe we'll actually make them pay this time.

[BrooksBall]

link please!!!!!!!

What kind of link? Video or just play by play?

[DonnyMost]

horse collar AND a late hit

[arkoe]

If that comes back...

[tmactoyao]

WOO 51 YRD RUN PLUSS PENALTY
GO SLATON

[Raven Lunatic]

****ING A SLATON

[Kam]

nice. nice. huge huge run.


and tack on more yards.


hopefully, that blows the game open.

[Texas Stoke]

That was all STEVE SLATON right there baby yeah!!

[arkoe]

hopefully, that blows the game open.

Takes more than one drive/play to break open the game when you're losing.

[tmactoyao]

l0l @ holding

[Kam]

i have a feeling we are going to put up three points

[arkoe]

Probably just got bailed out.

[AGBee]

Schaub is a mental midget.

[Kam]

Takes more than one drive/play to break open the game when you're losing.


im saying it leads to bigger plays. hopefully.

[Smokey]

Stop saying particularly!

[DonnyMost]

Put AJ at QB

[BMoney]

Schaub is horrible.

[BrooksBall]

Lucky that wasn't an INT.

[Smokey]

I'll take "Brown, Kris FG" every time.

[rhino17]

What kind of link? Video or just play by play?
Video please

i dont get the game in colorado

[arkoe]

Is Schaub even going through reads... Looked like he went with the first person he looked at last couple of plays.

Would really rather see Sage.

[DonnyMost]

lets just start punting on 3rd down

this is retared

we put the FOOT in football

[rocketsregle]

The Texans should burn all the #8 jerseys.

[Raven Lunatic]

I gotta say, I really thought Schaub would come out gunning in this game after Haynesworth's comments. Apparently they didn't fire him up at all. He has looked quite uncomfortable out there.

[BrooksBall]

Video please

i dont get the game in colorado

Sorry, don't have a video link. You can follow the play-by-play though at any of the major sports sites.

[Faos]

Worst red zone team in the history of football.

[Blake]

Schaub is doing his best David Carr impersonation

[BrooksBall]

I'm fairly clueless when it comes to football but Schaub looks awful.

[f_chowd0696]

I think the Texans are the only team that has the ability to still be losing with a +2 on the turnover column...lol

[arkoe]

Looks like Kubes is getting frustrated with him on the sidelines...

[f_chowd0696]

I think the Texans are the only team that has the ability to still be losing with a +2 on the turnover column...lol
my bad...+1 forgot Shuab's interception..

[Jared Novak]

Hopefully Sage can get into the game.

[tmactoyao]

Video please

i dont get the game in colorado

try channelsurfing.net?

[BMoney]

Kerry Collins is looking like Vince Young today.

[DonnyMost]

Like a huge dump on a massive pile of crap stuffed into jar of week old farts.. the Texans just stink

[BMoney]

Like a huge dump on a massive pile of crap stuffed into jar of week old farts.. the Texans just stink

You have to win some sort of award for expressing how bad the Texans are..well done..lol.

[ima_drummer2k]

Um...CBS in Kingwood (Suddenlink) is showing the Debra Duncan show from 5 days ago. Am I the only one seeing this??

[Grandpappy]

-5 passing yards through the first quarter and a non existent running game. What a pathetic excuse for an NFL team. Rosenfels needs to come in the game. Could not be worse than this guy.

[DonnyMost]

Damn it AJ!

Step INTO the ball!!

[RedRaiderRocket]

AJ another TD drop.

[VesceySux]

That's 2 TD should-haves for AJ. This isn't all Schaub's fault.

[farrisdabis]

Andre? He's usually the only one we can count on...

[ima_drummer2k]

Does anyone know where I can listen to the game online? For some ****ing reason, I have the ****ing Debra Duncan show on CBS and of course 610's listen live link isn't working.........

[wakkoman]

Does anyone know where I can listen to the game online? For some ****ing reason, I have the ****ing Debra Duncan show on CBS and of course 610's listen live link isn't working.........

http://channelsurfing.net/

scroll down little more than halfway... should see an audio link

[Kam]

wow.

three dropped touchdowns

[BrooksBall]

wow.

three dropped touchdowns

That one wasn't on AJ. It was a prayer and he was out of bounds either way.

[DonnyMost]

I think AJ must have his hands stapled together

[DonnyMost]

Another Schaub bootleg... how... expected

[Texas Stoke]

Kubes just saved his job with that 4th down conversion.

[tmactoyao]

go slaton!

[Kam]

go ahead and cut green now.


Touchdown!

[arkoe]

In Slaton arkoe trusts.

[DonnyMost]

Slaton laid the wood to Griffin, HARD.

Finally something to cheer about.

[Texas Stoke]

Slaton.....may be the greatest running back we've ever had.

[Kam]

That one wasn't on AJ. It was a prayer and he was out of bounds either way.


you put your hands on you have a chance to catch it.





that missed PAT is going to cost us.

[VesceySux]

That extra point botch might come back to haunt us. :(

[DonnyMost]

And and a busted PAT.

One step forward, one bullet in our foot.

[RedRaiderRocket]

Cant even get an xp.

[BMoney]

That was a big time drive. Nice to see Owen Daniels involved in the offense.

[BrooksBall]

Slaton averaging 12.2 yds per carry.

[DonnyMost]

incredible that was not off pass int

[RedRaiderRocket]

Kubiak worst in Nfl in using his challenges.

[VesceySux]

WHAT THE F***, KUBIAK.

How do you NOT challenge that?!?!?!?

[radapharoah]

what the **** are you doing kubiek!!!!
you ****ing idiot

[Texas Stoke]

Gary Kubiak is done.

[tmactoyao]

wow give em 7
:mad: challenge the play..

[DonnyMost]

Kerry Collins is looking smarter than Gary Kubiak

[BMoney]

Kubiak is just a complete moron. Jesus Christ. Throw the red flag!

[Kam]

and now Kubes doesnt want to challange?

[Landlord Landry]

Kubiak is terrible at picking plays to challenge.

and plays not to challenge

[Cannonball]

Kubiak & Co. have the worst instincts on when or when not to throw the red flag.

[cdastros]

Fire Kubiak.

[Smokey]

That was not a catch, clearly.

[rocketfan83]

man wtf is going on out there? How do you not challenge that he challenges any questionable call and doesnt throw a flag there? JOKE

[radapharoah]

HOw thehell does he not challange that??? even the titans knew that it was out of bounds....thats why they ****ing rushed to the line!

FIRE KUBIEK THAT ****ING IDIOT!

[AGBee]

Texans are a joke of a franchise.

[DonnyMost]

That was not a catch, and that was not a TD run.

Amazing

[radapharoah]

it must be that A&M education :(

[rocketsregle]

Texans getting screwed twice by the refs and our own coach indecisiveness.

[RedRaiderRocket]

Just a little advice to our great coach, whenever the other team rushes the field they know they got away with one. Might as well throw the flag.

[VesceySux]

Is Kubiak TRYING to get fired?

[Groogrux]

Not challenging that is indefensible.

One of the Texans' defensive players should've faked an injury.

[radapharoah]

im ****ing done with these clowns....fire kubiek and blow this team up

[nigma2000]

unbelieveable, they deserve everything bad that happens to them!

[moestavern19]

Pretty sure an injured Dunta Robinson could at least stay within 2 yards of the Titans B-squad receivers.

[Cannonball]

Slaton is freakin' awesome.

[DonnyMost]

We are officially the Houston Slatons now.

[tmactoyao]

slaton's the only bright spot so far..

[Oski2005]

Count me in with giving Kubiak a swift kick in the ASSSSS! How does he not throw that flag? MORON!

[BMoney]

Slaton is the man!

[RedRaiderRocket]

Least Slaton is looking good. Just wondering has Kubiak ever won one challenge?

[radapharoah]

great play by slaton but kubiek is still an idiot....that might have been the dumbest thing I have seen a head coach do in the NFL since the lions choose to kick the ball in overtime :(

[wallyj12]

WHAT THE F is kubiak doing!! He always makes these "miracle" challenges (ones that are 80% in the other teams favor) and eats the flag on two calls that clearly could have gone our way (maybe not so much the lendale rush but for sure the catch)?!

I think at this point kubiak is pretty confident the titans are going to just march right up the field like theyve been doing all game and wanted to get it over with on that non challenged catch.

[DonnyMost]

Who the hell is Schaub throwing to?

Ball in the dirt to AJ, ball into the pep-band for Anderson?

Seriously?

[Kam]

this game is far from over, but if we lose, atleast we know steve slaton can play.

[Oski2005]

Is he trying to get Andre killed?

The only reason he didnt challenge it is because he must not want to be caught without a challege left in the 2nd half should the game be based on a critical call.

[Baseballa]

At least Andre caught that one...

[Cannonball]

Slaton - 86 yards
Rest of team -77 yards

[radapharoah]

fire kubiek!!! that was the dumbest thing I have ever seen a coach do in the NFL!

[AGBee]

Is he trying to get Andre killed?

No, he's just trying end his season like last year.

[wallyj12]

i was thinking the same thing...but it was pretty clear that catch was going to lead to 7 for the titans. We havent been able to stop them all game there was no chance we were going to stop them that close to the end zone

[Behad]

Zac Diles is the worst tackling LB I have ever seen

[Uprising]

Slayton looking like a stud. Matt just looks so uncomfortable. His passes don't look right, almost lazy.

Andre with a couple of drops, but the passes could have been better.

[garthomps]

link please!!!!!!!



I second that!



I saw this one on P2P, but doesnt seem to work for me. Let me know! tnx

[Landlord Landry]

im ****ing done with these clowns....fire kubiek and blow this team up

you're an idiot. Kubiak isn't exactly brilliant today, but the problems are on the field, not the sidelines.

anytime anyone here thinks Kubiak is bad.....watch about 5 minutes of any Kansas City game, now thats a horrible coach.

[radapharoah]

well atleast pubes is helping my ff team...thanks idiot :rolleyes:

[nigma2000]

so we pretty much we have an iffy coaching staff and a QB with no confidence, yep that pretty much sounds like the same old Texans from day 1.

[radapharoah]

I'm an idiot?!? and your defending pubes? :rolleyes:
I dont have anything else to say but
FIRE PUBES!

[Cannonball]

We called a timeout so we could run another draw?

[Landlord Landry]

I'm an idiot?!? and your defending pubes? :rolleyes:
I dont have anything else to say but
FIRE PUBES!

I'm not defending Kubiak, I am defending basic football knowledge, which you have none. now go take your frustrations out on Madden 08.

[Smokey]

I'm curious why Kyle "I got this job cause my dad is Mike" Shanahan doesn't get any blame for not developing Schaub. He is the freaking OC.

This is what happens when you hire a 28 year old coordinator who has zero experience playing or coaching.

[RocketFire]

Running game A+
Everything else poopoo

[Mr. Clutch]

Whats most disappointing to me is the defense. It sucks real bad.

[Landlord Landry]

yeah, but you forget he has a tattoo of chris simms. :D

[BMoney]

Settle down, people. Halftime, game two.

[Mr. Clutch]

Settle down, people. Halftime, game two.

So there are 14 more games of this? PANIC!!!!!!

[BrooksBall]

Whats most disappointing to me is the defense. It sucks real bad.

I agree. The defense was soft. Schaub was almost as bad, though.

[Angkor Wat]

Salton is looking good. Matt, not so much. Anyone else rather see Sage out there?

[Mr. Clutch]

Salton is looking good. Matt, not so much. Anyone else rather see Sage out there?

Yes, I would have rather kept the draft picks, signed some defensive players, and have Sage as the starter.

[arkoe]

Salton is looking good. Matt, not so much. Anyone else rather see Sage out there?

Kubiak's refusal to see that Sage is the better QB confuses/befuddles me.

Here's hoping though that Shaub can prove me wrong.

[Landlord Landry]

Anyone else rather see Sage out there?

Sigh, yes.

[DonnyMost]

I love how no one can spell Slaton's last name.

And yeah, put Sage in.

[radapharoah]

I'm not defending Kubiak, I am defending basic football knowledge, which you have none. now go take your frustrations out on Madden 08.
yes my lack of football knowledge tells me that you challange that call always!!!
thanks for reaffirming my believe that pubes is even more clueless than me..
OK I WILL GO PLAY MADDEN 08 now :rolleyes:

[radapharoah]

great our best corner is hurting :(

[arkoe]

The inability to tackle is frustrating.

[Cannonball]

Why can't the first man ever make the tackle?

Nice tackle CC. :rolleyes:

[radapharoah]

diles and brown can not wrap up...

[wallyj12]

yep were definately one of the worst tackling teams in the NFL. I think all of the injuries from last season makes the coaching staff tentative to go all out in practice on a tackling aspect.

[DonnyMost]

have we laid a hand on Collins all game?

[mrdave543]

ugly game by both teams so far, but titans have the game in their control.

[Cannonball]

That was a nice play defensively. Good job Mario!

[Cannonball]

No confidence in Schaub.

[RedRaiderRocket]

Least our offense is not predictable.

[radapharoah]

this play calling show that either pubes has given up on the game or he doesnt trust schaub...either way somethings wrong with the picture...
if you dont trust schaub get his ass out of the game...

[cdastros]

When will the texans get a good offensive line? They had 3 plays to get 5 yards. :confused:

[arkoe]

No confidence in Schaub.

Was that three straight rushes?

[DonnyMost]

duane brown's how to be an NFL left tackle guide book:

1) dont move til quarterback say hut hut hike sometimes just hut i dunno which one football is hard
2) make funny movements as if shot by a tranquilizer dart or impersonating a newborn giraffe
3) fall down into someone wearing different uniform hope they fall down too
4) repeat twice
5) punt ball so u can go drink gatorade i like grape

[Shroopy2]

I love how no one can spell Slaton's last name.

And yeah, put Sage in.
A friend keeps mentioning him as that rookie "Chris Stanton". In the same talk I say its Steve Slaton, from West Virginia.
The next time we talked he says yeah Chris Slaton looked good last week.....what can ya do

[RedRaiderRocket]

Nice pass and catch there. Lets do something with it.

[mrdave543]

ticky tack foul, didnt look like it was that late of a hit

[Kam]

i cut walter earlier this week, so stop throwing it to watler.

[DonnyMost]

Owen Daniels.. come on baby

[radapharoah]

Im behind you pubes!!

[Air Langhi]

this is dumb

[mrdave543]

another great defensive stop by the titans

[Cannonball]

Should be Rosenfels time.

[Groogrux]

We are a joke. Come on Rockets.

[arkoe]

That was too reminiscent of Carr. I need four yards? Throw back to the line to a guy that's covered.

[radapharoah]

a screan :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

[Uprising]

Is that Vince Young in Shaub's jersey? He is horrendous. Man his throws are just floating, where no one can get them. :(

Stupid play on the 4th and 4.

[BMoney]

Why in the hell are they going for it on 4th and 4 in the third quarter?

[rocketfan83]

Going for it on 4th was meant to try to spark the team.

SO put sage in to really spark this team.

[Air Langhi]

Its like that madden commercial. Its the third quarter don't go for a 4th and 4.

[DonnyMost]

gatorade time!! i like grape yay!!

http://www.jimflorentine.com/art/special_ed.jpg

[Cannonball]

Going for it on 4th was meant to try to spark the team.


Just like going for it on 4th at midfield on the opening possession vs Pittsburgh was supposed to be a spark/confidence builder. I'm beginning to see a trend.

[DonnyMost]

I found our new LT, sign em up, kubes!!

http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i83/mremc/ASAYOSKGSJWQ.jpg

[Angkor Wat]

I think I would have settled for a FG on that one. Too early to go on 4th down.

[mrdave543]

Is that Vince Young in Shaub's jersey? He is horrendous. Man his throws are just floating, where no one can get them. :(

Stupid play on the 4th and 4.


great comeback, im pretty sure it doesnt matter who is playing QB for the titans. the titans defense is completely dominating this game.

the texans are joke of a professional team, and are an embarrassment to the city of Houston .

[arkoe]

Don't slow down Jacoby...

[Cannonball]

The defense has been much better this half. Unfortunately, offense isn't doing too well and we're passing up points.

[Uprising]

great comeback, im pretty sure it doesnt matter who is playing QB for the titans. the titans defense is completely dominating this game.
wah wah wah wah wah....wah.


Great comeback? ummmm....to what? Was I talking to you? World doesn't evolve around senor dave....

LAWLS. Titans do look good though with out you know who holding back. Their D has always been what carries them.

[arkoe]

Go for Kubiak! It will build momentum!

[radapharoah]

my ff team is doing great...I have the titans d :(

[Cannonball]

Both tackles sucked on that play.

[Uprising]

Anyways, enough mentioning that cry baby in this thread. That's my bad for bringing him up. Just something I was thinking while on the couch watching the game, Shaub looks out of it. No nice quick passes. Almost everything seems to be lobs.

[mrdave543]

Great comeback? ummmm....to what? Was I talking to you? World doesn't evolve around senor dave....

LAWLS. Titans do look good though with out you know who holding back. Their D has always been what carries them.


Guess world evolves around senor uprising? im a titans fan always have been, not just a VY fan....carry on

texans are in serious trouble next couple of weeks. QB change time?
