[Official] Raiders @ Texans Game Thread

Lol... Really?

You must have just started watching the Texans this year.

 

not as depressing as last year pick 6 losing to the ravens in overtime, the hailmary against the jags, the crap defense that let the jets go down the field in like 54 seconds without any timeouts.. its a year in year out DEPRESSING TEAM

Ya really. In case you haven't noticed, we had a chance of starting 4-1 for the first time in team history and some guy named Mario Williams was injured for the remainder of the season.

Or maybe he's JAG for you :grin:

 

I think a more apt analogy would be to liken them to the spouse that beats you.

 

If you guys are into self torture, I know I am, they will be replaying the game on the NFL network. The second game of the double header tomorrow.

 

Tough loss...Schaub must've had Romoitis...

So fn close...there's always next time...

 

Same old Texans this year...sorry guys. Hopefully the Texans can wake up for once.

 

I would take Romo over Schaub though.

Want to relive this horrible loss?

There are a few pics over at The Buzz's website with my photos from the game.

There's also a few on my Flickr account!

This is my favorite shot from the game...

RT @PFF_Tyson: Funny thing about last play of OAK, HOU game; the #Raiders only had 10 defensive players on the field. But still managed to pick Schaub off.

Edit: Doh! Reading comprehension not my strong suit apparently.

 

Pro Football Focus has the advanced metrics.

Here is one of the main reasons the Raiders prevailed.

damn... how much is that picture worth? that has to be a rare

 

WTF.

Los Angeles' longest play FROM SCRIMMAGE was the fake punt by R. Cartwright, who ran the ball for 35 yards for a first down. Conroe.

Thanks for the link, sir.
