    jeez... I'll take 30 minutes of 34-0 football every game this year.

    That was waay too enthusiastic of a call for a TD in a 34-0 game.

    well at least it's not on the D with the lone score the Colts are probably going to get.

    Texans still don't have that "step on your throat" mentality? Maybe I'm nitpicking.

    Well, the drive before last they still were throwing the ball quite a bit... more than I would expect with this running game and that sort of lead.

    Still, I don't like the turnovers. That's 3 today. We're actually still -1 in turnovers despite having a 34-7 lead.

    Damn, I thought Gumbel was going to piss his pants when the Colts finally scored.
    Dierdorf is giving the Texans their due but Bumbel is biting his lip

    Texans won't put up 34 in a half every week.

    Maybe it's just me, but in there a more annoying commentator on the planet than Dan Dierdorff?

    That was a pretty nice grab though. I thought Collins was just throwing it away

    I think there's a point where it stops being a "step on your throat" mentality and it starts being "rubbing salt in the wounds." I'll take a 34-0 drubbing in the first half in what looks to be around a 3 TD victory margin. No need to run up the score like Pats do.

    One thing that worries me about this game is the 3 turnovers. That's unacceptable and they're lucky those haven't been converted to more points.

    And thus, their gameplan won't reflect one where they have a 34 point lead.

    You honestly think the offense becomes this conservative if it was a closer game?

    Also, the value of Foster can't be understated.... he is possibly the best RB in the game in a system that fits him perfectly. You can't expect to be just as good without him...

    lol at anyone that thinks the Texans only put one good half together.

    If you think they are going to come out in the 2nd half of a 34-0 game with the same desire to put points up on the board, then I can just laugh.

    Its quite obvious that they are just trying to have the game finish.

    If 34-0 isnt step on your throat, then Im not sure what is...

    Yes, you are nitpicking beyond reason.
