    The NFL will occasionally cop to bad calls, but they never ever publicly discipline their officials.

    Lol Texans fans getting 10+ penalties in a game and thinking it must be some grand conspiracy.

    Try getting 10+ penalties every game for your entire existence, then you may be on to something.

    ^There were 2 horrendous calls. The rest of them looked legit.

    Jerome Booger, Tony Brothers, and Mostevarn are all incompetent jokes of human beings who have no principles when it comes to right and wrong.

    2-3 RTP calls on J.J. Watt a 6'6" guy when he tackled BELOW THE KNEES. Turned 3rd and long into a couple first downs, setting up plays. Not to mention the BS on the final drive. Regardless your point is irrelevant, if a team got 10+ penalties every game then it would be obvious the players are sucking, not the refs.

    I kind of agree but the calls were still very one-sided. Colts were getting away with penalties that Texans weren't.

    That offensive pass interference that they didn't call was pretty blatant.

    Regardless of the bad calls the game shouldn't have been that close. Kubiak had the offense handcuffed all game, that is on the coach. I'm a huge Kubiak fan, but it was ridiculous to play that conservative. What did we have to lose to go out there and sling it?

    Well even Ed Hochuli didn't get fired after not just one but two poorly officiated games that affected the playoff race for the Chargers a few years back. And he wasn't fired.

    More than likely, we won't see that crew again in the playoffs, if the NFL deems they did in fact do a poor job.

    i dont see the NFL or any league doing this immediately after the game in question....they'd basically be opening the door to all kinds of complaints, officially and unofficially. Too much negative publicity.

    This is a bull **** excuse. I hate Kubiak as much as anyone, but a win is a win, regardless of by how many points. Bottom line is that despite a ****ty game, the Texans did ENOUGH for a win yesterday. The refs altered that result.

    I disagree. Our team is far better than a team that should just squeak by with a win against the 2011 Colts. Too much can happen in football if you let a team hang around. It happens every week where a big underdog wins because the favorite doesn't put them away early enough.

    I agree. Considering we lost a week prior ,AT HOME, to the Panthers , one would think the Texans would come out blazing on the Colts. We even caused a fumble and had a quick score.

    After that ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... NOTHING.
