Yeah, but chances are that's an incomplete pass even without the penalty. Raiders are rushing extra guys in every pass situation, and we can't do anything to beat them.
this. i mean they stacked the damn box and schaub doesn't audible? so many weapons on offense, it's just frustrating to watch them struggle in what should be easily-rectified situations.
Wrote Houston Chronicle columnist JeromeSolomon on twitter: “Texans fans do not google “pectoral injury” it’ll just upset you. Can be a nasty injury.”
Inexcusable. Official had perfect angle, saw the hook, threw the flag... and allowed himself to be talked out of it by Hue Jackson/other officials. I wish the league took its officiating more seriously... that's the kind of thing - especially when done repeatedly - that should lead to disciplinary actions.
I don't recall ever seeing Schaub audible. Is that an option for us? Is it Schaub or is it Kubiak not wanted to give up that kind of freedom?
That's because the original official was going to call PI... but it was an uncatchable ball... thus it couldn't be PI. Problem is, the ref should have then gone to his backup call of illegal contact, but he couldn't think far enough ahead to do that. Sometimes we give these refs (esp the side judges) more credit than they deserve... they are just as prone to mental lapses as any player or announcer out there.
Well, Raiders look just as listless on their drive, and the Texans have the ball back WITH A LEAD (hard to believe by reading this thread that we are still winning). I honestly think both defenses are determining the outcome of this game more than just bad offense. Raiders are stacking the box because the Texans don't have the pass protection or the speed to beat them deep... and the Texans have forced the Raiders to virtually abandon the run game.
