    I will give Matt one defense and that was that his o-line turned to absolute swiss cheese in the 2nd half. The Raiders blew through it on almost every play in the 2nd half and were beating him to hell.

    I would love to just lose without all the late game drama...stop getting my hopes up. If you're gonna play like trash, just go ahead and pack it in early.

    I guess if you want to look at the glass half full, it's that while Baltimore's D is top notch, their offense is not. This D, with or without Mario, I think can get to Flacco. So I wouldn't call next week a loss just yet.

    That and even if we lose, being 3-3 after the tough early part of the schedule is still ok. We just gotta take care of the games within our division.

    Not so much the missed FG, but the special teams was abominable. It was like watching the San Diego Chargers out there. Texans would never have been in the game against a team with a decent OB the way they allowed every punt/kickoff to be returned. I know Ford/Moore are good, but you know that going in.

    that was brutal. First time he had to make a play this year and failed miserably. It was a great call. Him in the game would typically mean that they are going run heavy, but to then bootleg it to was a great call...just didn't make the catch.

    Last play was a cluster for sure. Looked like Jacoby was setting up in a block out position for a brief second, then he bailed to the back of the endzone. All around miscommunication.

    These ****ing nutless underachievers blow another season where the playoffs teed up for them, I'm done as a season ticket holder. So sick of this garbage.

    I don't want to here **** about how the Raiders were inspired by Al Davis. That game was ours, we went on our ****ing 5th straight mid-game vacation after building a lead, and even all of their gift wrapped penalties couldn't give the game back.

    Pathetic.

    Schaub continues to show Andre makes him look better and not the other way around.

    If they go 3-3 they will still be able to make their annual trip to 5-7!

    Don't you need to be in the locker room running the tub and lubing up for Shaulb? You keep doing your thing.

    A-freakin-men. I hate this "lose in a spectacular and heart attack-inducing" fashion. I say it every season, but it's like the Texans somehow find a way to lose.

    because that was the point to have him in. Made them think you are running it and the playaction to the "blocking fb". Casey would have drawn a little more attention. It was a great call...if the catch was made.

    Titans are winning the division, it kills me to say that and that we will be 3-3 after next week. I didn't use to believe in curses but it's just bizarre how Texans find new ways to lose games
