    Seriously just run the ball down their throats. That will set up the pass.

    need secondary adjustments at half, KJ needs to give more cushion before the snap and that space behind KJ's area in the zone is wide open

    we need to pound the ball on offense and set up the play action, and more screens, schaub getting hammered too much

    Cowboys will be pumped going into half time. Texans need to make a big statement getting the ball back in the second.

    That's because you are allowed to take a timeout and nullify a run off. Conspiracy of the officials to follow the rules, I know.

    Exactly. Even if there was a delay... playclock was at 0 for a long ass time...

    Texans look lethargic, need a big play, INT, long kickoff return, something. Also throw a couple of different looks at Romo, blitz Pollard or Quin, Hell blitz Jackson maybe he'll be mor effective rushing the QB then covering a reciever....

    We've played about as poorly as possible...and only down 7?

    Please, we got this.

    They just looked lost out there. They don't do as bad on drives with lots of stoppage between play, but on 2 minute-drill type situations and no-huddles, they just look completely and totally lost out there.

    It is HIGH time Tony Romeo got popped in the mouth...our D-Line is not putting enough pressure on the passing game.

    Dallas just got a FREE 3 points...let's make 'em the last, KUBES!

    They should have only scored once too...

    Our defense is bending, but its not breaking by any means.

    How the Texans' defense played was a big key to today's game. Remember, this is a defense that has coughed up 800 yards in the previous two games and that was one of the facts the Cows were basing their hopes on going into this game. The decision to start (creamed) Jackson is looking totally dumbass right now. The DL is not generating enough pressure on Romo and the secondary is MIA and often out of position. Add all that plus (yet) another trip into the Red Zone yielding only 3 points and you have them down at the half. Let's see if they can step it up in the second half else this can get ugly fast. As expected, the Cows are running the ball hard and well. The Texans have to run the ball better and keep the Cows' offense on the bench.

    Pound the ball to start the 2nd half, no reason to abandon the run, Foster looks great, let's sap the entire third quarter.

    The Texans need to take a long drink of pride... then open up a jar of whup on the Cowboys in the second.

    just give the damn ball to foster... the man is tearing them up. absolutely no reason to hand off to slaton. and why is slaton returning kick offs? the guy has ZERO vision. it's like he finds where the coverage is and runs straight into it.

    Can't run the ball any better. Foster has 66 yards on 8 carries...get him the ball.

    I don't know if the Cowboy's secondary is that good, but the times Schaub has been able to step up and throw, our receivers haven't been able to get the usual catches to keep the drives alive.
