    Clowney's "warm up" before the Steelers game looked staged. He'll probably exaggerate his pain again with another lackluster warm up, then not play.
    Hope I'm wrong

    Texans "roof policy" and overall decision making regarding it currently mimicking the organization as a whole... a joke.

    Funny how twitter blows up over this... and I've never seen the complaining the other way (roof open when it shouldn't be), although the Texans "swear" they hear it.

    Glad to see another Houston sports organization get blasted in the social media... maybe it will lead to a reversal (like it did the day Altuve was "ruled out" of the lineup when he was going to win the batting title).

    why have one then? Why get taxpayers to pay for it?

    I actually like to experience outdoors football as a fan at the game.... now I'm hearing its "too cold" to have the roof open on days like this.

    Im with you...It's a total pointless thing to have a retractable roof when you never use it. Would have cost a lot less to do without the high tech, fancy contraption.

    This franchise is weak in literally every aspect of operation. I honestly dont know how BOB made his fortune if he runs his other businesses like he runs the Texans.

    I figured they'd turned the corner last season as it was open for a few games (following the chron feature how the roof usage was a joke).

    Now, they're back to 2011 and 2012 "superstition/... its really louder closed, right?" status.

    Looking forward to the Pats and Broncos looking better on offense in blizzard-like conditions later today.

    Yeah just saw Clowney was out on ESPN. Shame. I wish we knew what was really going on.

    Hooray for football! Getting a bit burned out on all the negativity surrounding the Texans, Clowney, etc.... Trying to stay positive. I'm ready for 2 entertaining games at noon, though due to the preponderance of Cowboy fans up here I'll most likely have to watch the Texans without sound. I was bummed when I woke up and realized I had to wait an extra hour. Stupid farmers (looks in mirror).

    The Fox game in College Station is Cowboys - Cards instead of Texans - Eagles.

    Anyone going to Lavaca St Bar in Austin for the Texans Game?

    Thinking of at least heading there for the 2nd half.

    Just laughable.


    I'll be happy with anything in the mid 40's or higher for the Cleveland game.

    From what I've read just a numbers game. OB would rather go with an extra DB that can also play special teams. OB preaches versatility and at this point Posey is just another big WR playing behind AJ and Nuk
