    at least they melt down once the game is over. some of us here are melting down because we cant score the 29 points we average per game in one single quarter of play. :p

    Does anybody know what aj,schaub, watt and foster were holding at the end of the game? did that replace the turkey legs? I thought the turkey legs were one of the best awards out there. I miss the turkey legs!

    I went over to TexansTalk expecting to see happiness and jubilation over being 10-1, but instead all I saw were people b****ing and moaning about the fact that "we are an average NFC team" and that whoever we face in the Super Bowl is going to stomp us. WTF is wrong with people that they can't even be happy in the moment?? We are ****ing 10-1! 10-1! 10-1. I want that to sink in. Who gives a flying **** about the Super Bowl right now?? This team has literally won games in every way possible, and we are witnessing a special season here in Houston. How can ANYBODY complain about what's happening?? Do we have issues right now in the secondary? Yes. Do I have complete faith in Wade that he will get the issue fixed? Absolutely. You know why?? 10 and ****ing 1. That's why.

    I'd say it's comparable to Graham in his prime. Bullock can hit from 55, when healthy. Don't think Graham can today. Likewise, on kickoffs... Bullock won't ever be a consistent out of the end zone guy, but he can get it into the end zone with some depth. Much better than his performance this preseason (injured).

    14 points over the first 4 possessions, one punt, one missed FG. Nobody would have been complaining if the Texans were up 14-0 or even 14-7 with 10 minutes left in the 2nd quarter.....

    Flat Irons. It is the All-Iron award. The trophy looks like and old style iron that you heated on the stove or in a fireplace.

    Yea,not like we only had 3 days between our last overtime game or anything.I honestly would have been ok with losing this game.Going in I was just hoping for injury free ...Great game though ...during these last 2 games, watching the reemergence of Andre has been awesome.

    It's one thing to have a drive with a first down or two blown up by a sack or penalty or whatever. Even a missed FG. But when you get 16 yards on your first 3 drives, it's extremely annoying for this offense.

    Its the truth and its a fact Texans Pass D sucks vs good Qbs. So it will be up for the Texans to play offense on how their playing past two games to beat the Pats.

    Plus people talking about injures and that's why our D isn't the same. Thats just an excuse cause every time is going though it as well. Packers, Ravens, Pats, Steelers, Giants, Redskins, etc. People just have to step up and if they don't..then too bad.

    Teams that are contenders have serious injury s as well..not just the Texans. Its part of the game and you get though it. if its the QB ill understand but the rest you can use it as an excuse.
