    Wow. Over 13 years, only 600 posts, and THAT is what you decide to post?

    As amusing as that is, sorry to break it to you, but I STILL don't care what hate-filled people think.

    Sure, but there's a reason left tackles get paid what they do, it's important that they do their job or it leads to fumbles.....you know, like the one that ended the game.

    Foster looks great also. Much more explosive than last season.

    This is true. He's a mediocre at best QB with a turnover problem, which is why I've been down on him from the day his signing was announced.

    And I expect him to completely collapse at some point during the season.

    The secondary really screwed us today, missed tackles and blown coverage all game long. Andre fumbling that ball was just so demoralizing and fitzTRAGIC was in full effect to finish the game. The Oline is hot garbage, oh and duane brown has been almost as bad as his rookie season.

    Not sure why, but I really like OBrien. I think he is going to be a good coach in the long run. I don't see the Kubiak comparison that some are suggesting.

    Im praying Clowney helps...b/c letting Luck throw for close to 400 yds....is sickening...390 going to TY "fcking" Hilton...

    Quick thoughts on the game:
    1. JJ Watt deservedly should be in the MVP convo, but he cant win the MVP if his team cant win. Plain and simple...and while his efforts are super human...argh...do something on offense...

    2. Hopkins should be ripped for his effort on the game ending fumble...

    3. Fitztragic took a ton of hits...hung in there, but in the end...when we need a play "we cant buck to him"

    4. Foster is our offense, with a side of JJ Watt

    5. Andre Johnson's catch was amazing...but man...you've had two monstrous fumbles this season...

    6. BOB is a fiery dude...but makes me wonder why cant he rip the team in the beginning of games...so they dont play like fecal matter...

    7. Swearinger should be destroyed by his coaches....his inability to make tackles with initial contact has cost the team a lot.

    8. Kudos to the Texans for making this game respectable, when the Colts came and took a crp on the Lawn..

    O'Brien with his Kubiak type start on offense and special teams letting the freakin kicker recover his own d@mn onside kick are the reason the Texans lost.

    OBrien is great at making adjustments, but he needs to get the team off to better starts

    I'm beginning to have some doubts, but it's early. This is his first stab at being an NFL head coach.

    On the job training can be ugly at times.

    I just don't get why the Texans would get a TO machine to be their game manager. Just stupid. I just knew Fitz would **** up some kind of way like he usually does. There were bad plays in other areas no doubt that help to lose this game, but in spite of all that still had chance to win in the end and Fitz fumbles on first play. I just can't...

    My breakdown of the game.

    JJ Watt - Legendary, has to be in the MVP race

    Rest of D line - hot and cold, not enough pressure

    Secondary - God Awful

    Foster - His usual awesome self

    WR corps - Decent, but Andre kind of killed the team with the fumble

    Fitz - Good enough to win

    O line - Pathetic pass blocking, decent run blocking.

    For once i just want to have a coach here whos playbook isnt held back by his QB. You can see it in glimpses where BOB calls some really smart and explosive plays, he just does not trust fitz enough to open it up consistently and rightfully so.

    Yeah, Crick as well. Neither were really consistently good, but both had moments.

    Actually Romeo is the guy who has been great at making adjustments... It doesn't take a rocket scientist to give Foster the ball and Foster was a beast before O'Brien got here...
