    Bob Sanders is out.

    If we cannot beat them with 3 starters in their secondary out then when will we...


    Houston 23
    Colts 20

    Well, the key is getting Peyton off the field long enough to take advantage of it.

    I don't think I have ever seen someone as injury prone as Bob Sanders. That must drive Colts fans nuts.

    He's worse than Penny Hardaway and Grant Hill were in the NBA.

    I think the key isn't just that they are out this week but the Colts have had there whole "D" destroyed by injuries for what will be for a quite a long stretch. If we can win this week and at home we could actually make this a race for the DIVISION!!!

    PLEASE win this game Texans! Their defense is dropping like flies. If their defense cant withstand this wave of injuries, then playing them twice within a couple of weeks will be suprisingly nice...

    Random thought:

    I was just thinking about this season and how much of a non-factor Andre Davis has been. In my head during games, I'm praying for him to break one off on a return (he's been pretty bad this year, seems to run right into the opposing team) then after that, i TOTALLY forget he's on our team haha. The last time I remember him "making a play" on offense was that scared crossing route over the middle he ran against the Jets week 1...

    I don't think he's made a play since his two TD kickoff returns to end the 2007 year. He's still living off of that one good year. The good news is it seems Jacoby and Anderson get much more playing time than he does now.

    We need to run right at Feeny, early and often. Hit him with a Dreesen double team every time you can.

    i agree that we should attack him but dreesen is not a great blocker...i'd rather hit him with a double from Hill.

    I'm excited to see if the big kid gets some snaps. I know he's primarily a blocker, but he's a big dude and could really help in short yardage

    Colts are so beaten up. This might be a shoot out.

    I agree with the earlier poster, give us something to believe in Texans. For once. I'm so tired of having to get crap when I tell people who my NFL team is.

    The Colts will have to start 2 rookies CBs, Andre Johnson could have a nice day!
    The best way to contain Manning is having him on the bench

    GO TEXANS!

    If I recall, he had that big return against Arizona that set us up to get to the goal line (where we couldn't score). He had another huge return against Buffalo that was called back last week.

    For some reason, he has only had 14 returns this year, according to ESPN.

    What I'm wondering is why he hasn't been being used in the offense. He only has 4 catches on the year. Maybe with the injuries, he'll get a chance.

    No turn over, play hard from start to finish, defense got to step up and give Manning different looks. Texans shock the football world. Hopefully..
