I think he's asking because last week for the DAL/TB game they showed the game on local DAL channel and a local TB channel for Time Warner Cable folks. They talked about it in the pregame, saying that because TWC doesn't carry NFL Network, folks ought to complain. Not sure they would show it in Austin, but they might show it in Houston/Indy on a local channel for TWC folks.
Kubes is going to go ultra conservative in this game to limit the chance of Yates turnovers, and he should. Saying that, the game will be won by the Texans in a low scoring affair. Texans 20 Colts 7
I'm definitely pumped...Got HD for a nice night game, Christmas just about here ...going on a 5 day mini- vacation starting Friday. Life is good! Can't wait till gametime! :grin:
There's nothing on Twitter, so I don't know if this is confirmed or if I misread it... but I'm fairly certain ESPN had the "active" tag next to Owen Daniels in their preview for tonight. Would make me feel a lot better about him going forward if he doesn't have to miss time.

The Texans didn't wear all red during the Raiders game. Our Battle Red Day was against the Jaguars, and we wore red jersey/white pants. They are not wearing the full reds at any point this season. LET'S GO TEXANS!!!
i say 20-10, we win, but if the Texans lose on national television, I seriously think that it would be hugely traumatic to this team emotionally heading into the playoffs. We seriously need this win to boost our morale. Kubiak said it best that it's better to play an earlier game, so a win early can boost this team's morale going into next week. Nonetheless, I've been waiting 345, 600 seconds for this game. GO WHITE AND BLUE! GO TEXANS!! WOOHOOO!!
What the hell, this broadcast so far has been all colts talk. Peyton, what the colts need to do to win, peyton, upset Houston, blah blah.
