    We are looking pretty good here. I just wish we could see how Carr is doing. We should be concerned about his performance. There is a possibility that our feeling of his needing a better line of protection and that he actually has a good arm. He may have been hit once to many times.

    It's usually the Home Shopping Network, but used for Astros and Rangers games when one or the other is on FSN. I was suprised they showed it at all tonight...

    Only Rockets games televised in Austin are national tv games or if FSN has them playing the Spurs. This is Spurs territory. Only other way is to get League Pass.

    But we won. In the SI I got in the mail today they predicted us to only win 3.

    I just read that too. I'm not expecting us set the world on fire or even make the playoffs, but we'll definitely improve by more that one win.

    I think we will win more than 3 but our schedule is just r****ded this year. I haven't seen what our official strength of schedule is but I would imagine it is in the top 3.

    that being said I think the over under for the texans wins is at 5.5 and I want to say we are like -150 to cover the over. I'm thinking about going under.

    I think according to SI our SOS is tied for 8th.

    I'd probably take the under as well. I'm thinking 4 or 5 wins. I personally would be thrilled with 6.

    I'm still saying between 6 and 8 wins. It will be a large improvement. Even if there wasn't an improvement in talent (which there was in players and coaches), the attitude is so much different. That alone should help them to finish games. How many of those games last year were they leading in only to lose? Wasn't it something like 10 out of the 14 losses? I would be very disappointed in only 3 wins. Anything less than 5 should not be considered improvement.

    I'm taking the over.Gotta agree that we're looking at 6 - 8 wins.....more precisely 8 - 8.

    that would be HUGE. i sure hope you're right.

    i think we're gonna see a legit QB controversy this season,though. i think we're gonna see it very early. -- and let me say, i hope i'm wrong on this!!!
