Texans @ Jaguars

[XBLRocketman111]

Didn't see an official thread for this weeks game.

My takes on it is,

1. stop the rushing attack on D. taylor 16 rushs 61 yrds, jones drew 7 rushs 16 yrds.
2. Make Jags Beat us passing the ball.
3. Shaub completes some freakin passes with accuracy 26-32 287 yrds 2 tds 0000.00000 interception
4. Steve slaton to the rescue!! 110 yards my pred.
5. Demeco is a man beast 28 tacles in 2 game so far.
6. Mario give me 2 more big boy!!
7-100 NO TURNOVERS.

Theres my take on it all

I think you mean Fred Taylor.

Jones Drew will have a field day against us like always. Slaton will rush for over a 100 again. Our offense will have to click on all cylinders to win this game. I think this will be a high scoring game, and we win by a Kris Brown FG.

31-28.

IMO
This is the SCHUAB game
he has to look good. . .
Texans cannot wait until they find a total creampuff
and then say . . .SEE SEE HE *IS* GOOD

The League is not Filled with Creampuffs
He has to have some GOOD SHOWINGS against some GOOD TEAMS

I honestly hope he does have a good game, the fact of the matter is, if he doesn't we will see sage. Kubiac will not squander the season, because of schaubs inability to find success

[emjohn]

IMO:

-We are solid plugging up the middle but have got to get better at containing the flats: our corners and OLBs have been pathetic in this regard, and MoJo ate us alive on bounce outs and stretch plays last year. Teams in general seem to have learned how soft we are there. Ryans has to make far too many plays at the sidelines.

-Each team should know that the opposing QB is vulnerable to getting shaken if stirred. Both sides need to protect theirs and pressure the others. We need to win that battle - Schaub is a great pocket passer when he's relaxed and horrendous when anxiety creeps in after a couple of hits. Garrard can be pressured into stupid throws.

-Our D-line needs to be whipped into a frenzy to attack their injury-depleted O-Line. NO EXCUSES for us not to terrorize them. If we don't, it's because we tried to take the game lightly.

-Watch out for Mathis.

-Fake a 4th down conversion either to draw the D offsides or to pooch kick. Kubiak has attempted more 4th down conversions than almost anyone in our first 2 games, so they should be expecting the same. Catch them off guard.

24 points and we get our first W. We lose if we're getting nothing but FGs.

[Jet Blast]

The Jags don't have an O-line. It's time for all of our #1 picks on the D-line to dominate the line of scrimmage.

Texans 43
Jaguars 10

Btw, Dick Enberg and Randy Cross will call the game for CBS.

We are talking about the team who put away the colts last week right? Colts aren't as good as they used to be but c'mon give the jags more credit than that

I was watching some "highlights" of the tits game last night. In his defense, AJ dropped two SURE TD's on two separate drives. Both of them would have really helped Shaub's stats, along with the outcome of the game.

[Uprising]

Thankgod, I no longer have to click in the Titans thread. We normally play really well against the Jags. Really sucks we haven't had a home game yet, Stupid Ike.

Slayton will run for 100+ again, and Schaub will finally throw the ball down the field, and AJ will be able to hold onto the the ball.

27-17 Texans

[msn]

Thankgod, I no longer have to click in the Titans thread.
Some idiot just posted the columbia blue and red oil derrick in that thread.

The ****(&@#*@.

Oh, and Jags win 24 - 12. :(

[DieHard Rocket]

This will be a gut-check performance for the Texans. Schaub especially should be feeling the heat. Based on Kubiak's comments after the last game I wouldn't be surprised if he gives Sage a shot should Schaub continue to struggle in the first half of this one. Kub knows how bad they need a win.

I don't know why, but I'm thinking we'll win this one. Last year in Jacksonville, we almost took a double digit lead before Andre Davis fumbled at the goal line...from there they came unraveled. If they can avoid crumbling after one mistake they can make a game out of this. Especially if the defense plays like they did in the second half last week.

That's his schtick. He's got 24 posts in that thread basically doing the same thing - trying to piss off Texan fans.

No one is paying attention to him, so he thinks he has to try harder, I guess.

Are there any tropical storms approaching Florida that could make landfall by Sunday?

[mrdave543]

Hopefully I can post in here without derailing the thread.....from what I have seen in years past, the Texans always play the jaguars well and if the texans want to salvage any hopes for this season, they have to win this week.

Steve Slaton looked good against the Titans last week, will be interesting to see if he can duplicate it against the jaguars. The Jags offensive line is missing 2 or 3 starters so if the Texans defense can get to Garrard they can control the game. I think it will be an ugly defensive battle, and the game ends on a game winning fg, not sure which team though.

From what I hear, the jaguars/texans hate each other a lot (jaguars are the dirtiest team according to one player ive talked to), and I wouldnt be surprised if there is a scuffle or two.

[ryan17wagner]

JAX 27 Texans 13. Schaub's last game as a starter for awhile. Kubiak calls on Sage at home v. Colts Oct. 5.

[rrj_gamz]

Is this a must win? I think it is...If Schaub does poorly, I suspect he'll be benched...And rightly so...

Jags: 31

Texans: 17

Just bumping the thread. BTW, I have no interest in being a mod, nor would I be a good one, but it would be really great if we could 'sticky' the rest of this years Texans games.

Just a humble (ok, grovelling) suggestion.

GO TEXANS!

[conquistador#11]

God, give our people a sign.

[rocketfan83]

Mort reports that schaub is on a short least today. Hope that is true,

[Groogrux]

23-21.

[v3.0]

I'm beginning to think Kubiak doesn't have what it takes to be a head coach. I can't get a feel from the team that he's imposing his persona on the team. Schaub and Kubiak are on the hot seat with every mounting loss. Rick Smith is tied to Kubiak so he's on the hot seat too, especially if our talent level is severely lacking compared to other teams.

I'm predicting a loss cause the Jags have a punishing run game and...they're just a better football team.

[Landlord Landry]

Mort reports that schaub is on a short least today. Hope that is true,

mort reports alot of false info.

[Egghead]

Fantasy Football:
Should I start Schaub or Garrard? I'm hesitant in starting Garrard cause I think Jacksonville will run the ball a lot today, but Garrard is projected way higher than Schaub.

Start Schaub so you dont have to root against the texans

Any word as to why CBS (comcast) isn't in HD today?

EDIT: n/m... its in HD now.

Jaguars 24

[cdastros]

This offense looks very David Carr like, meaning short passes, simple offense. :rolleyes:

[DonnyMost]

Pathetic.

[tmactoyao]

what the :mad:

[Nick]

Complete coaching breakdown.... how do you not call timeout there?

Kubiak is looking more and more like he's simply a coordinator, not a head coach.

[CometsWin]

Del Rio 7 - Kubiak 0

[Groogrux]

IT IS CALLED ****ING TIMEOUT KUBIAK.

[The Cat]

That was one of the most shameful coaching jobs I've ever seen in any sport. It's the first half. If you have your ****ing special teams defense out there and you can see the entire time that the other team is running a normal play, call a ****ing timeout you idiot.

That's mind-blowing stupidity. Unreal.

[DreamRoxCoogFan]

:eek: WHERE WAS THE TIMEOUT?!

[francis 4 prez]

we couldn't call a timeout?

[NewRoxFan]

I officially give up on the Texans. :mad:

[Remix]

#1 draft pick here we come! that was pathetic

[Kam]

wow. that sucked ass.

[rocketsregle]

Didn't Del Rio catch Kubiak asleep in a game last season too?

[rocketfan83]

We need to give Bill Cowher a blank check ASAP

[NewRoxFan]

What channel is the Saints - 49er game? :mad:

[emjohn]

Just pathetic. This team just looks sad right now.

[adw]

That was beyond sad :mad:

What's gonna be even more frustrating is that he'll waste a timeout when the team is on offense because he doesn't get the play to Schaub in time, or he tells him to call one to "think it over".

He's officially on the hot-seat now. This team looks unprepared, uninspired, and is showing less and less effort each week. That's all on the coach.

[kaleidosky]

no timeout... i'm not defending kubiak anymore..

[DreamRoxCoogFan]

last man back- you gotta go for the tackle, not the strip- WTF.

[Yak]

Gary Kubiak is my pick for Coach of the Year!

I need to find a new team.

[Groogrux]

Bob McNair should walk down to the field now, take the headphones away from that dumb ****, and give them to a random Texans fan who may be in the seats. My girlfriend was yelling for a timeout before the play happened and she's not even a ****ing Texans fan. I envy her for that.

[Bobblehead]

Kubiyuck suck!!!!

It wasn't like they "rushed" up there... and they weren't even in the freaking punt formation.

Kubiak really has no excuse... I'd like to see him try and explain it.

[DonnyMost]

bring on the..

BILL COWHER POWER HOUR

[francis 4 prez]

way to fall down before getting the first down walter.

and man, no timeout, just amazing. football teams will blow timeouts on 2nd and 4 from midfield in the middle of the first quarter like it's the most important down in the game just because some WR was out of place for the upcoming dive up the middle. but the special teams on the field against the other teams regular offense? play on.

[kaleidosky]

bring on the..

BILL COWHER POWER HOUR

i'd take that. i don't think he'd ever come to houston somehow..

[RedRaiderRocket]

I don't know why other teams don't do that same punt return formation. With a blocker in the back ready to get the first rusher after him. It is tearing apart our special teams for big yards. I suspect another blowout. In Kubiak we trust!

[Landlord Landry]

bring on the..

BILL COWHER POWER HOUR

fire kubiak, hire cowher?

The Texans have some of the lamest fans.

[Nick]

i'd take that. i don't think he'd ever come to houston somehow..

Why would he? There are always jobs available every year... and any other job/situation right now is better than trying to re-build/re-tool a franchise for the 3rd time in 7 years.

[Bobblehead]

I counted 7 seconds when the Jags went to the line before the snap on that fake play. 7 freaking seconds to call a TO.
Kubiak SUCKS!!!

[cdastros]

John Madden Football 101. On 4rth down, wait for the opposing team to select punt before you select punt return. Come on Kubes :rolleyes:

[justtxyank]

Why would The Chin want to come here?

Potential jobs next year...

Carolina
Washington
Dallas (if they don't win)
Cleveland
Cincinnati

[rhino17]

anyone have an online link to watch the game?

[Groogrux]

fire kubiak, hire cowher?

The Texans have some of the lamest fans.

Just wondering if you have watched this season. Kubiak is quickly showing he should not be an NFL head coach.

[Nick]

Awesome pressure by Mario... simply overpowered the tackle.

Will we get bamboozled again?

[Groogrux]

OK, pay attention here Kubiak.

[Groogrux]

Defense is looking pretty good at least.

[Nick]

Defense is looking pretty good at least.

Indeed they are... playing their asses off like they did last week against Tennessee throughout the second half.

But they have NOTHING to show for it thanks to Kubiak... both weeks (the disasterous "going for it" on 4th downs, and now the inexplicable non-timeout).

Also, what are we trying to do on offense now? There's nothing downfield, and the underneath routes are available.

[rhino17]

an audio link at least fellas?

[Texas Stoke]

I counted 7 seconds when the Jags went to the line before the snap on that fake play. 7 freaking seconds to call a TO.
Kubiak SUCKS!!!

I think Bob Mcnair told Kubiak to tank the season.

[gucci888]

Why would The Chin want to come here?

Potential jobs next year...

Carolina
Washington
Dallas (if they don't win)
Cleveland
Cincinnati

I agree that Cowher wouldn't want to come here but...

Washington-unlikely to fire Zorn just after one season.
Cowboys- It's pretty much the worse kept secret in the NFL that Jason Garrett will be the next Cowboys HC.
Cleveland- Crennel just got an extension in January

[Landlord Landry]

dammit Kubiak! you moron.....how could call a screen there and give slaton all that space? you suck kubiak. :rolleyes:

[Groogrux]

Nice drive shaping up here.

[NewRoxFan]

Just looking at the Jag field position, knowing a punt would likely roll into the end zone anyway, so going for it made all the more sense.

Not being prepared is as bad an indictment of a team and coaching staff as saying the team laid down like dogs. As much as I like Kubiak and supported his hiring, he has to go. As in before next week's game.

[kaleidosky]

Why would he? There are always jobs available every year... and any other job/situation right now is better than trying to re-build/re-tool a franchise for the 3rd time in 7 years.


Honestly I don't think we need to re-build or re-tool too much.. for once, the team has talent. The only problem would be that the o-line is suited for this system, so you'd have to chnage that or keep that part of the system in place..

[Nick]

Nice drive shaping up here.

Gotta get at least 3 points here... we can't keep doing these long scoreless drives.

[Nick]

Schaub gets better protection.... makes better throws.

[The Cat]

Draw play on 2nd and goal from the 15. Unreal.

[Bobblehead]

This team has no red-zone offense.....PATHETIC

[Landlord Landry]

Schaub gets better protection.... makes better throws.

who woulda thunk it?

[Kam]

we made it to the red zone, and you know what that means.


Red means stop.

[VesceySux]

Seriously? A screen on 3rd down and goal? Way to play not to lose, Kubes.

[Chuck 4]

Red Zone Scare Kubiak... :rolleyes:

[Groogrux]

Does Kubiak have a lobotomy any time the Texans penetrate the 20?

[RedRaiderRocket]

Hard to believe there is a red zone team that is worse than the Texans.

[Nick]

Mario is a beast... looks more and more dominant every week.

[VesceySux]

Jacoby... DUDE.

[arkoe]

Mario is a beast... looks more and more dominant every week.

He's been everywhere. He came all the way around the back to assist in pulling down Garrard there.

[kaleidosky]

i will continue to defend schaub, and i think he's looking solid today. hopefully the nay-sayers can see that the talent and the skills are there and that it's not all on him..

[askball]

Daniels has had a nice day so far.

[f_chowd0696]

Am I actually seeing 3rd down conversions?? Where did he real Texans go?

[DonnyMost]

OL is doing much better today, Schaub looks a lot calmer.

I want to see something more though.

[f_chowd0696]

an actual drive?

[arkoe]

i will continue to defend schaub, and i think he's looking solid today. hopefully the nay-sayers can see that the talent and the skills are there and that it's not all on him..

He looks fine when he has some time. He has to make good decisions though when he doesn't have time, which he hasn't done so far this year.

[Nick]

For the first time this season, the Texans are actually controlling a game.

Of course, you look at the scoreboard, and you wonder wtf... that's how big that non-timeout is.

[f_chowd0696]

slaton finally broke through

[Nick]

He looks fine when he has some time. He has to make good decisions though when he doesn't have time, which he hasn't done so far this year.

Hate to break it to you, but most QB's don't make good decisions when they don't have time... HOFers included.

[VesceySux]

Nice!!!

[DonnyMost]

THATS more like it.


Slaton!

[Nick]

Is that Reggie Bush?.... NO... its STEVE SLATON!!!

[RedRaiderRocket]

Wow a lead nice pass and catch.

[Astro101]

Slaton baby!

[TMac640]

TOUCHDOWN!!!

[Scientific1]

Slaton is the real deal. Looks like the Texans are picking it up.

[f_chowd0696]

this guy is our new Dominick Davis....

all around threat!!!

[kaleidosky]

go slaton! go schaub! i think i'm buying a slaton jersey this week to wear on gamedays

[CometsWin]

Where the hell would we be without Slaton? Goodness...

[arkoe]

Hate to break it to you, but most QB's don't make good decisions when they don't have time... HOFers included.

Well, in that case the way he played in the first two games were fully acceptable.

[tmactoyao]

Slaton is a beast. 'Nuff said

[askball]

Nice start for the Texans!!!

Now go get 'em Mario!!!

[Chuck 4]

Thats how you avoid the red zone problems. Just go for the endzone.

[rhino17]

DOES ANYONE HAVE AN AUDIO LINK???????

[JunkyardDwg]

Yay Slaton! The only thing going right for my fantasy team right now!

[Nick]

Well, in that case the way he played in the first two games were fully acceptable.

I didn't say that... I just said its difficult to evaluate a QB when you say he "needs to look better when he has little to no time to pass."

And, fwiw, the first two weeks... he did have times where he had good protection... and he still didn't look great. This week, much more poise in the pocket.

[dream34shake]

Oh God, Demeco....

[Nick]

SOMEBODY has to get to the QB besides Mario.

[Nick]

Jacksonville's stadium has some poor camera angles.

I essentially agree. Things aren't always going to be peachy in the backfield though, and when it's not the qb is still accountable for what he does with the ball.

Was that a coach's challenge?

[Nick]

The Texans are going to go into halftime with all three of their timeouts.

Awesome.... score should be at least 10-3 Houston, if not better.

[Landlord Landry]

are you kidding? man you guys are just really whiney fans. look at all of the positives coming out of that first half. arguably the best first half this season, and you guys want to do is cry about Kubiak.

[adw]

Damn,that was fast :(

[Landlord Landry]

dam you kubiak! how could you give MJD a hole that big? :mad: it's your fault you can't tackle these guys kubiak :mad: :mad:











fail.

You're right, we should just ignore extreme incompetence, especially when it directly leads to a TD for the opposing team. That's pretty much twice now in the last two weeks.

[Nick]

You can't downplay how big a mistake that was... no matter how the team looked.

All that matters is the final score... and if the Texans lose by a TD or less, that play will be magnified even more.

And yes... coaches can lose their jobs over decisions like that... you can't make that sort of mistake in this league.

[tmactoyao]

C'mon texans, put together a good drive

[Landlord Landry]

You're right, we should just ignore extreme incompetence, especially when it directly leads to a TD for the opposing team. That's pretty much twice now in the last two weeks.

please don't bring up extreme incompetence, it only solidifies my argument.

half this team should be gone if that was the basis for whacking people.

[Angkor Wat]

This is the #8 we need.

[Groogrux]

please don't bring up extreme incompetence, it only solidifies my argument.

half this team should be gone if that was the basis for whacking people.

When's the last time a team waived half a team that was terrible? Like it or not, it's much easier to replace a coach than multiple players.

I'm not calling for Kubiak's head (earlier was just frustration), but we have every right as fans to chide him for that terrble decision and after last week, his decision-making certainly is turning very questionable.

Regardless, using your logic, we can't complain about any bad play or decision because we'd just be whiny.

[arkoe]

please don't bring up extreme incompetence, it only solidifies my argument.

half this team should be gone if that was the basis for whacking people.

Your coaches should be putting the players in a position to win... Kubiak didn't do that by leaving the punt return team in against the starting offense.

That was huge mistake by Kubiak.

[arkoe]

I'm not calling for Kubiak's head (earlier was just frustration), but we have every right as fans to chide him for that terrble decision and after last week, his decision-making certainly is turning very questionable.

His decision making around timeouts and challenging plays has always been questionable to me. He's had a tendency to burn timeouts at odd times the entire time he's been here.

[Nick]

Suck it Jax!

[Groogrux]

Beautiful.

[tmactoyao]

woohoo good drive texans!
play some good defense
matt schaub is really looking good today
2 tds no INTERCEPTIONS

[Rokkit]

Schaub looks a hell of a lot more comfortable today.

[askball]

Thank you Matt!!

[rocketsregle]

Schaub looks a hell of a lot more comfortable today.

He's making better decisions and is not as stationary when he comes under pressure.

[BrooksBall]

I haven't been watching the game. Can somebody tell me what Kubiak did that people are up in arms about?

[Angkor Wat]

Anyone sick of the *commercial* kickoff/punt *commercial* ? Its ridiculous.

fixed.

[arkoe]

I haven't been watching the game. Can somebody tell me what Kubiak did that people are up in arms about?

He didn't call timeout to take the punt return team off of the field on a fourth down on the first drive of the game by Jax when they left the offense in. They direct snapped to a back who ran straight to the end zone.

Only poor decision was that he left the special teams out on a fourth down play and did not call a time out when the Jags still had their offense on.

4th down and 6
we brought out our punt team while jacksonville kept their offense in
direct snap to full back, 41 yd touchdown run
kubiak should've called a time out when anyone could clearly see that jacksonville had their offense in against our punt team [didnt even bring out their punter]

[Groogrux]

fixed.

It's much easier to change coaches than half the team is what I meant. Do you not agree that it was a horrendous decision by Kubiak? Are you defending it?

And it's their. If you're going to "fix" my post, you should at least use proper grammar.

[BrooksBall]

He didn't call timeout to take the punt return team off of the field on a fourth down on the first drive of the game by Jax when they left the offense in. They direct snapped to a back who ran straight to the end zone.

Wow, I gotta see the replay. Is there any justifiable reason why he didn't call the TO?

[gucci888]

Jacque Reeves is horrible.

[Nick]

Wow, I gotta see the replay. Is there any justifiable reason why he didn't call the TO?

No... there isn't. There was plenty of time, and everybody could see that Jacksonville wasn't planning on punting.

[arkoe]

Wow, I gotta see the replay. Is there any justifiable reason why he didn't call the TO?

No, there wasn't. I was surprised someone on the field didn't call timeout. The punt return team was running around obviously caught off guard.

[Nick]

We could use a turnover right here.

[Groogrux]

Gotta love having the guy stopped behind the line of scrimmage, only to let him escape for a first down.

There. You happy LL?

[RedRaiderRocket]

Come on Texans hold them here big 3rd down.

[Landlord Landry]

sorry teach, old habits and all that.......

no, I'm not defending his decision, it was a mistake.....but people here constantly whine about Kubiak and Schaub as if those are the 2 biggest issues with this team. If anything Richard Smith is the bigger incompetent. I put more blame on ND Kalu, CC Brown, Travis Johnson, Amobi Okoye, Petey Faggins than I do Schaub.

[RedRaiderRocket]

Good stop Demeco.

[tmactoyao]

phew, mario with the pressure on 2nd, and demeco with the stop on 3rd
good hold for fg

[tmactoyao]

wow if he didn't recover that..

[kaleidosky]

big time walter

[kaleidosky]

and Ahman pushed back into action?

[Angkor Wat]

Hey, its another RB getting injured.

[askball]

Who is our 3rd RB?

Ahman isn't active IIRC, and Walker is still on the practice squad.

[tmactoyao]

WOO for walter and daniels!

[DonnyMost]

God I love watching Steve run.

[RedRaiderRocket]

Who is this quarterback wearing a Texans jersey?

[rocketsregle]

What a catch :eek:

[Groogrux]

Awesome!!!

[DonnyMost]

Kevin Walter is schooling his man today..

[tmactoyao]

thank god for kevin walter!
24-20 texans
SUCK THAT!

[kaleidosky]

hell of a catch by walter (and owen the play before)

[Astro101]

I have AJ on my fantasy team starting partly due to byes so him not getting any catches makes me sad. But this is awesome having everyone else step up and getting it done.

[Rokkit]

Oh hell yeah.

[Nick]

thank god for kevin walter!
24-20 texans
SUCK THAT!
Matt Schaub is the one that is making him who he is today.... putting it in perfect spots where only he can catch it.

Also, he's not settling for the dump-off or the underneath route to AJ... he's forcing it downfield against them to Walter, and its working.

[desihooper]

Kevin Walter is schooling his man today..

He's the guy that knocked out Schaub in San Diego last year... payback is a biz-nitch!

[Groogrux]

And that's when it worked best last year.

[Grandpappy]

Texans for some reason always look good against Jacksonville. Not getting my hopes up until I see some consistent play in the coming weeks. Pass protection has been pretty good though.

[kaleidosky]

Who is this quarterback wearing a Texans jersey?

the same one that wore it last year when he was healthy.. patience is a nice thing to have.

[Nick]

How the hell is that "roughing the passer"?

[CometsWin]

We need a turnover.

[Rokkit]

Damn it.

[RedRaiderRocket]

Come on Texans one more stop, field goal wont do anything here.

[askball]

Please get a TO.

[arkoe]

Mario is getting so much pressure on Garrard.

[askball]

unbelievable.

[Rokkit]

For f**k's sake how can you not be watching for that.

[tmactoyao]

:mad:

[dntrwl]

QB SPY ANYONE? Jesus CHRIST he's done this **** like 5 times, they need to have someone watching him god damnit.

[JunkyardDwg]

So...how big is that 1st touchdown now.

[Nick]

Getting burned by the scramble....

[desihooper]

He's just stepping up in the pocket and no one's there... unreal. That and the stupid shovel pass to Taylor is what's keeping them on the field this drive. :( :confused: :mad:

[rocketfan83]

Okay somebody make a play. One play wins the game

[v3.0]

Mario is getting so much pressure on Garrard.
a sack would be nice though

[Groogrux]

Jesus Christ.

[tmactoyao]

:mad:
WHY CANT WE STOP GARRARD!

[Rokkit]

You've got to be ****ing kidding me.

[Nick]

The defense didn't make any adjustments to what Jacksonville was trying to do... and it was damn basic stuff.

[askball]

We have time.

[desihooper]

That QB Draw was so obvious from the formation... I still like our chances.

[Cannonball]

Jax found a horse, beat it to death, and we still couldn't stop it.

[Landlord Landry]

awesome tackling.

[Groogrux]

The defense didn't make any adjustments to what Jacksonville was trying to do... and it was damn basic stuff.

Exactly. I'm not even sure why I waste my time anymore.

[A_3PO]

Garrard ran the ball 5 times during that drive and there was no adjustment by the defense.

[kaleidosky]

maybe it's meant to be for schaub to get a chance to show his 2 min drill. let's gooo

[BMoney]

Ok, this game is still winnable. I would like to see Andre Johnson step up.

[Nick]

There's still plenty of time... but once again (like last week), this was a terribly winnable game that will be marred by our own mistakes (the non-timeout and allowing QB draw after draw).

[v3.0]

Garrard ran the ball 5 times during that drive and there was no adjustment by the defense.
man that defense is the sarah...err nevermind...

[Nick]

A minute just came off the clock, and the Texans only got one play off.

[tmactoyao]

ANDRE JOHNSON!!

[askball]

YES!!!!!

[DonnyMost]

AJ!!!

[pgabriel]

big time throw

[A_3PO]

man that defense is the sarah...err nevermind...
HA HA HA! Rub it in will ya. LOL!

[Landlord Landry]

if you guys don't realize now that Richard Smith is a bigger liability than Kubiak/Schaub, I don't know what will make you realize it.

[tmactoyao]

here we go..

[Cannonball]

Kubes playing for the 47 yard FG.

[A_3PO]

if you guys don't realize now that Richard Smith is a bigger liability than Kubiak/Schaub, I don't know what will make you realize it.
Believe me, we do.

[DonnyMost]

is it just me, or wouldnt you have lined up on 3rd down and tried to kick it with like 10 seconds left incase of a bad snap, etc, so you can call timeout in case?

[Astro101]

I LOVE YOU KRIS!

[askball]

Thank You Kris!!!!!!

[DonnyMost]

Kris Brown is MONAY

[kaleidosky]

maybe it's meant to be for schaub to get a chance to show his 2 min drill. let's gooo

yes sir

[Nick]

Kris Brown has balls of steel.

He may be the only thing this franchise did right as an expansion team.

[dntrwl]

our kicker is a clutch badass.

[tmactoyao]

WOOO good job kris
1 second left

[Cannonball]

Assuming no screw up on the kickoff, we got OT.

The way this half has gone, whoever wins the coin toss will likely win the game.

[A_3PO]

CLUTCH BROWN!!!

[CometsWin]

The Texans win 27-20!! Oh wait...

[pgabriel]

is it just me, or wouldnt you have lined up on 3rd down and tried to kick it with like 10 seconds left incase of a bad snap, etc, so you can call timeout in case?


if they kicked without those four yards it may have been short and i'm sure they wanted to get a few more yards

[The Cat]

Here comes the glaring weakness of the NFL...

You have an amazing game, fought so hard for 60 minutes. You put millions of dollars into it, and it'll probably be decided by... a flip of the coin. It's so absurdly unfair, and yes, I'll still feel that way if we win it.

[rocketsregle]

Hope the defense was on the sidelines making adjustments.

[kaleidosky]

Kubes playing for the 47 yard FG.


if you're talking about the call to run it, then be quiet..

you have no time to make up sack yardage, and a sack drops you out of range of the tying field goal. You can't risk that at that point..

[Landlord Landry]

sweet! more football.

[DonnyMost]

LOL did anybody see Kris celebrate as soon as he kicked it, then he stopped for a second to double check to see if it had gone far enough, then start celebrating again? :D

[Madmax89]

how do i watch online???

[Apps]

Great offense today. Hope the defense can do SOMETHING in overtime. :eek:

[A_3PO]

is it just me, or wouldnt you have lined up on 3rd down and tried to kick it with like 10 seconds left incase of a bad snap, etc, so you can call timeout in case?
They didn't have another timeout to call.

[Astro101]

NOT HEADS! NOOOO

[JunkyardDwg]

Who calls tails?!

[Landlord Landry]

Kubiak should be fired for calling tails! ;)

[The Cat]

**** the NFL. Our season probably just ended on a flip of the coin.

[DonnyMost]

They didn't have another timeout to call.

No, I'm saying don't bother calling the timeout with 6 seconds.

Just kick the ball instead of calling the running play that ran the ball to 6 seconds, etc.

[tmactoyao]

Uh oh, Texans D step up please.

[DonnyMost]

oh and NFL overtime format sucks butt

[wallyj12]

if they dont make adjustments to garrard running up the middle im gonna throw my tv out the window
