    What are the odds that two players, Golic and Schlereth are tied with the best results so far....hmmmmm

    Ugh!! Berman picked the Texans to win 26-23. He's got Oakland to cover, so if the Texans win by more than six points it'll go down as a loss.

    I think Joel Dreessen will have a decent game.

    Do you guys see two tight end sets?

    I think with our offense, it's gotten to the point where you don't try to break it down anymore. Whatever the matchup is going to be, with Andre Johnson or without, you have a bit of confidence that the braintrust will figure out a way for us to move the chains against any defense with any players. Almost like New England's offense but not quite as good, just because the redzone execution isn't there yet. Overall though you can't say "just because Andre is out our offense will struggle more", because the entire gameplan of the offense is something beyond any fan's ability to predict.

    RIP Al Davis

    I doubt it. He has been viewed as a villain for the past decade. If the team hasn't performed for him in 10 years, I doubt that changes now. IMO, his death makes no difference.

    They'll be happy he's dead then? Thus play better.

    Davis was not popular among most players and coaches. I doubt they will play doubly hard to honor his memory. The Texans should win this one.
