    I wanna see: Schaub back to pass, the rush is coming, pressure in his face, he buys some time and WOW! he finds an open receiver instead of getting sacked. Ok so I have some high expectations, but PLEASE after 5 years of watching sacks yet open receivers over and over.

    I was going, then I couldn't. And now it's back on with better tickets! Can't wait.

    I want to see Schaub not throw into quadruple coverage, like our old QB.

    i wish Ahman was given a lance armstrong jersey and a bike to ride during the next four games. we know what talent and lift he will give this team. I just don't want to see him get hurt.

    Kubiak has already said that Ahman will play very little this preseason, almost all the carries will be split between Lundy and Gado.

    Sackarama VI coming to a stadium near you. Until the Texans WAKE UP out of their stupor and FIX the OFFENSIVE LINE, Johnny U couldn't stay vertical back there.

    You'll be lucky to see more than one series from a lot of the starters, especially veteran guys like Ahman Green, Andre, and Dunta. Might see Schaub for a little longer.

    I'm anxious to see how some of the young guys do though, now that Kubiak and Smith had full control of the draft for the first time together. I think every one of our draft picks could be solid contributors by the end of the year...definitely ready to see Fred Bennett, Jacoby Jones, and Brandon Harrison try to prove themselves.

    expect all the texans haters to go into a frenzy if the Texans don't score on their first preseason possession.

    Yeah this should be good -- i'm looking forward to seeing how Schaub, Mario, and Green do (who isn't), but i'm also curious to see C. Benson as the starter.

    :cool:

    Tickets are full price for pre-season games? $35 is the cheapest to pay to get in the stadium?

    Yep...

    I'm in the camp of shortening the preseason to 2 oe 3 games. But I heard the reason why today from John Clayton. Basically, the players are not oficially in their contract until the regular season starts. They only get paid about $1000 per preseason game. Therefore, imagine the windfall the owners bring in for these games. They still sell out, but aren't paying out millions in game checks. These are the most profitable games by far for the owners. Hence, the preseason will never be shortened.
