Instead of extending the regular season to 18 games, I would like them to add a thursday night game every week. By the middle of the week, I'm craving football. One extra bye week and going back to starting the season on Labor day would be nice too. I loved it when the season used to start on labor day weekend.
Anyone know where I can watch the game on-line? I'm lost in Switzerland and I'm hoping to see this one.
The official site says white jersey/blue pants. Next week we're blue on blue though. One of my favorite combos.

I sure hope the Texans come out and show well tonight. I've got mixed feelings about it though. I hope Kubiak and Dennison don't get cute and try to "trick" the Colts by coming out and flinging the ball around to start the game. They're going to have to balance running the ball with Foster and Ward and the passing game to keep the Colts off balance and keep Schaub upright. For all the things there are to like about Matt, I just worry that in big games, some of his flaws will come out at the worst time: 1) His propensity to force a ball to AJ that ends up getting picked 2) His lack of awareness in the pocket at times resulting in a strip/sack 3) His over-confidence in his arm on an out-pattern to the opposite sideline We almost saw those materialize in Week 1, but Kubiak pulled the reins in so fast that we got the all-Arian-all-the-time offense in the second half. Hopefully, Schaub (and the rest of the team), seize this opportunity and come out and play to their potential and make a statement on a national stage.
A lot of confidence in this thread. I don't know, we're still 0-8 there lifetime. I know we were close last year, and the colts have some key injuries this time, but as long as Peyton is still the QB, the other injuries won't matter IMO. Colts should be nice and salty because of Week 1. I'm hoping for the best but preparing for the worst. colts - 38 Texans - 24
Okay, Arian's tweet officially got me pumped: ArianFoster You ever see something as a child and say one day that will be me? Tonight dreams will become reality, what a stage! #ToAllMyDreamers
Awesome. MNF for Arian and the Texans. Big stage. Don't disapoint! Not like when we lost to these chumps earlier in the year.....
I wonder what effect Cushing will have as MLB. Putting him there could be the spark that is needed for the defense to play inspired ball. This game is gonna come down to whos defense plays better. Both offenses are gonna get there numbers its going to be who can make that stop in the 4th quarter or that big turnover in the game that will win it. Texans 31 Colts 28
