Texans North vs. Texans South Connor Barwin, Bryan Braman, James Casey, Andrew Gardner, Donnie Jones, Jeff Maehl & DeMeco Ryans back in town.
Not only back to back games on Fox... but the exact same announcing crew. Don't think that's ever happened in the entire existence of the Texans.
Heck... And I was just about to say at least this is a home game, but Philly has several players that are coming home. I bet DeMeco and Connor are super amped for this game.
Win this game and it could turn the entire season around. This is a game the Texans shouldn't win, but one they need to win if they want a shot at the playoffs.
Definitely not going to be televised in Austin this time. cowboys play at the same time and are scheduled for Fox. No chance in hell Fox 7 picks Texans v. anyone over cowboys v. anyone.
Another factor in this game could be that the game is in Houston. The Eagles have both of their losses on the road and they haven't played particularly well on the road thus far this season while the Texans have only one loss at home and have played better there than on the road. If they can avoid a disastrous first quarter like they had in the Indy game, they have a shot in this one.
Eagles 27 Texans 13 We all get lectured about how stupid we all are as fans by one poster who is just way too smart for this BBS and really should take his talents elsewhere.
we gotta run the ball well to win this one. The Eagles have a ****ty run and pass defense. And if we stop their no huddle offense early in drives, we will dominate possession time. This is gonna be a win.
It's like a tradition now for someone to say that before the game. Someone has said that before nearly every game so far this year.
The Eagles got some good news today, it seems that Darren Sproles should be healthy for this week's game and there's a chance that Jason Kelce could be good to go as well.
ETA: Sorry, that should read: We've NEVER beaten Philadelphia, right? Off the top of my head, we're 0-fer against the Jets, Eagles, Vikings... Cardinals and Rams? Be a nice time to scratch them off this list...
