    Well they are top 5 in the NFL so while not GOAT, it's pretty damn good. Also, Foster wasn't at 100% and said as much after the game. When you are going against an elite run stopping defense with a less than 100% starting RB you can't expect to get too much going on the ground.

    We officially brought an end to the EJ Manuel era it seems, Orton named the starter.

    Hopefully he plays.

    He had two good weeks.

    Bad player with a bad quad, so make him chase Foster in the flat.

    Bills benched EJ Manuel.

    He was terrible yesterday but was harassed by JJ Watt and had a patchwork O-Line.

    Still, the 3 teams the Texans have beaten have a combined record of 3-9 and each of them had terrible QBs. Even Eli dominated us and he is barely any good. This Sunday will be a real test against a good offense. Can't see us scoring enough to beat them.

    i doubt it. if we win, after the game you will have the usual suspects saying, "wellllll...the cowboys aren't that good. they're 3-2, barely one game over .500."

    Fitz is lovin' it. He goes out and beats the team that got rid of him. And that, in part, results in the QB that replaced him getting benched.

    Good win, but this victory was marred by racism.

    Cowgirls have a decent O-Line now.

    Should be an interesting match up there between Texans OL and their DL. I think that might ultimately decide the game.

    This is a game you would want to have Clowney for.

    They have the best OL in the league. Smith, Frederick, and Martin are all mashers.

    All first rounders also. Tyrone Smith went two spots ahead of Watt though :p

    Idk about best, maybe it is. It's looking really good right now. Also meant to say in my original post -- their OL vs. Texans DL*

    Bills had a good line too.

    Cushing is getting better and so is the Watt!

    I wish Clowney could get back for this game! Damn.

    This game really isn't that important outside of the texas rivalry.

    Clowney needs to be healthy for the Colts game on Thursday Night. Truly a big game.
