    Big win. Ugly, but big. Was the game as boring and ugly on TV for the first 3 quarters as it seemed in the stadium? It was brutal at times, especially the offense. I know we have to live with Brock's inconsistencies but my goodness, he can't be that bad. Great win, i just wonder how many people actually saw it. Texans finally have some success on prime time but more than likely most people tuned out. Can't say i blame them though.

    Lamar Miller was doing his thing but i wonder how much of that is feeding the beast versus just not trusting your QB? It was great to see him get the ball in space on that TD, i would love to see more of that.

    apparently early in the game andre ware noticed brock limping, made a note of it. so probably b.o.b isn't lying about brock being looked at.

    Maybe he doesn't suck and was playing hurt this whole time and was miraculously healed with 4 minutes left in regular time?? SUPER BOWL HERE WE COME!

    "I don't know" seems to be his new favorite answer

    The Texans blocking each other wasn't so bad on replay.

    Spoiler to prevent autoplay.

    Sua'Filo gets pushed back and Aboushi is just lost after his man sheds him. It's embarrassing for how bad Aboushi got beat, but the two linemen ran into each other rather than actively blocking each other.

    The team looked sincerely jubilant that Osweiler had come through - and not in a "yea! we won!" way, either - they were happy for *him* - you could tell. They seem to really like him, which is not insignificant. That and the so many of the players commenting on the fans leaving early... man, weird things can galvanize teams. I'm now very curious to see if they can build on what seems like a team-unifying win next week. This gets *really* interesting if they can knock off Denver.

    Also, Clowney is a ****ing beast. That is all.

    A win in Denver, and I think we're back in the saddle for being a top 4 team in the AFC.

    And yes, Clowney is a monster. I got very scared when he started limping towards the end of the game there. Hopefully, nothing that will slow him down. We need him every game this season.

    Still anticipating the day we rush only 3 (Watt-Clowney-NT) and get consistent pressure. Four guys will be considered our blitz.

    And who exactly on the team criticized the fan base for leaving early. Brock actually said he understood why they left.

    The Colts defense (or lack thereof) had something to do with it too.

    Maybe others did too, but definitely Charles James.

    He basically said, those who left aren't true fans.

    Charles James is not a true football player and should have already been cut if not for so many injuries. Too small, too many penalties, turnovers, etc.. just a bad player.

    Are you referring to this?



    That is hardly criticism.

    Sounded like Wilfork said something about the fans leaving like "Even when half the stadium left, we never gave up"

    I actually think Charles James is a good player, if you notice, he isnt getting beat really, he is just simply too small. He cant reach the balls thrown his way, but he is always right there, he at least knows what to do and where to be, just can't do it physically sometimes. As for special teams.... never again.

    "Even when half the stadium left, we never gave up" is still not criticism. Just explaining one of the obstacles they had to face in the comeback.

    So...?

    This showed he wanted to fight. He didn't want to come out for anything. He knew what this game meant to his team and hisself.
