Things I want to see: Keenum vs. TJ Cierre Wood vs Karim OLB play I love what Willie Jefferson is doing, but aside from two sacks against third stringers (at best) Trevardo Williams and Sam Montgomery have been absolute no shows so far.
I can't remember a more meaningless game between the Houston and dallas football teams, like ever. It's really a shame. Horrible scheduling by the NFL. Probably won't even watch as most of the participants won't even make the opening day roster.
will be disappointing to see the Texans play in front of only the 2nd largest stadium video boards in Texas
For as much as this game doesn't count, it counts. Hopefully the third stringers blow the doors off of the Cowboys.
It couldn't possibly count any less. 4th preseason game is strictly for the scrubs. Basically a scrimmage with uniforms. Come on, man. Texan fans should be way past the point of caring about preseason game scores. We're not an expansion team anymore.

Storylines: 1. Can Keenum grab the #2 spot from Yates? 2. Can Woods grab the #3 spot from Karim? 3. Can Lemons make a good case to stay on the roster? 4. Will Shapiro continue to shine and what will the Texans do with him?
I don't get it. I understand they are in-state rivals but it's getting old. I don't remember oiler fans caring so much about the cowboys. If there's any team I really would enjoy seeing the Texans defeat, it's the Patriots.
