Apparently the Texans are thinking about resting Johnson this week..I'm 120% for that. We need him for the long haul and his ankle keeps taking shots
If Texans lose I demand the panic button be hit....... Still a fan of bringing in Mr. Cowher in if we fail to make the playoffs. Although I pray we do make the playoffs.
Some Texans-Raiders tidbits: - Raiders muffed their chance on Sunday to go 2-1 for the first time since 2004. - Arizona managed only 227 yards total offense against the Raiders. - Raiders went 1-for-5 in the red zone (sound familiar?). – Three games in, the Raiders have 33 penalties for 290 yards. That’s 176 penalties for 1,547 yards by the end of the season. They had 11 for 123 yards Sunday. They were going backwards for almost as many yards as Darren McFadden had going forward. McFadden had 105 yards on 25 carries against Arizona. - Through 3 games, the Raiders have scored a total of 4 TDs (Texans have 8). - Through 3 games the Raiders are tied with Green Bay for 2nd in total defense allowing 260.7 yds per game. (The Texans are 31st allowing 423 yds per game).
Bounce back game. I know the Raiders aren't as horrible as they used to be, but I would be shocked if we don't win by at least 10 points. Texans 29 Raiders 10
Texans don't match up well versus the Raiders. Nnamdi Asomugha is a stud and always plays well versus Andre Johnson. Darren McFadden has been a stud this year. They have a very good defensive line with Matt Shaughnessy, Lamarr Houston, and Richard Seymour. It seems like Kamerion Wimbley has finally figured it out and he could be a hand full for Butler and Winston. Raiders 20 Texans 13
We're 3-1 against them since 2006. Run the ball and this shouldn't be a problem. It'd be nice if Slaton figured out how to hit a hole again so Foster doesn't have to carry it 33 times.
Big bounce back game. Raiders WR's do not worry me at all. D line for Texans gets 3 sacks. Texans 31 Raiders 17
He had a good run against the Boys but the rest of his carries this season seem to leave a lot to be desired.
I think our offense will be fine but our D needs to step it up. The Dline needs to get penetration on runs and at least pressure on the QB cuz i didnt see any pressure on Romo last week. CB's need to just play solid not necessarily amazing in this game cuz i have faith in our Safety's but they cant cover for all of the CB's mistakes. (not saying everything was the CB's mistakes but on the most part they were). Prediction Texans 28 Raiders 17
