Texans 27 Patriots 24 We win a defensive struggle and special teams brouhaha on a last-second kick from Graham. Arian Foster runs for 200 yards. ¡VAMOS, TEXANS!!!!!!!!!!! I wished we played in our blue jerseys, so Brady didn't see the defenders.
I am praying for a Texans upset. Texans 28 | Pats 21. Texans intercept Brady as he is going down the field for the tie with 2 min left in the game.
Texans need to score TOUCHDOWNS early to take the lead. We need to take away the short passing game and make Brady beat us over the top. This will allow our front seven more time to get to Brady and disrupt our rhythm. If we don't disrupt the short passing game, I think we're done. Time of possession is huge, too. Keep their offense off the field, and we'll be okay. I don't care how Matt Schaub does, to be honest. I want Foster to get 25 carries, and Tate another 20. That would be a successful day, to me. A turnover or two would be nice, also. I'm nervous. No score prediction here.
Texans dominate TOP...And Matt Schaub has a career game!!! AJ80 and Arian Foster tear up the secondary 41-38 Texans
My girlfriend's dad was talking a lot of mess to me yesterday about how Brady was going to manhandle them. Yes I stood up for my team and were just going at it back and forth. I really hope we can pull this off because he invited us for bbq at his house next week to watch the game. Texans 28 Patriots 24
Lose-lose situation for you no matter what the outcome of the game is. GET OUT while you still can, man! Spoiler I kid. I hope you or he are both a gentleman about any outcome and you get some nice celebratory (or angry) sehcks.
Say it with me: 7 instead of 3. 7 instead of 3. 7 instead of 3. This needs to be the mantra for the offense every time the ball crosses the 25 yard line. Let's give Foster another 32 carry, 140 yard day. Let's give the tight ends another 15 reception, 150 yard day. Let's give Schaub another day where he throws it under 30 times. Get to Brady early and often, don't let the tight ends push you off your line to get open, and have the safeties patrol the middle of the field. J.J. Watt, Antonio Smith, and Shaun Cody need to get massive push, while Barwin and Reed come around that edge on a mission. Put Brady on his ass throughout the game, and don't let him pull his Captain America act in the pocket. Go Texans.
The Texans can do it. If there is ever a time for Kubiak to blow the playbook wide-open, it's this one. Andre Johnson can now say that this IS the biggest game in franchise history, because the stakes are much, much higher. Connor Barwin, Brooks Reed, and Antonio Smith MUST step up in the pass-rushing phase to help Watt to keep Brady on his wheels, because that will be the key to this game. They have a shot.
Kubes threw In the towel early last time we played. We're gonna see a lot of Foster in the running and passing game. Look for bootlegs galore in this game. We will manage the clock and keep Brady off the field. Formula for success! Texans 34 pats 28
