Interesting to see if they are as fired up for STL as they were for SEA, or if all of the 'win one for Kubes' was just a bunch of BS. Given the bipolar nature of this team, we could be in for a let down.
That's what make me a little uptight about the game. I'm used to getting kicked in the gnads on a weekly basis by the Texans, so it wouldn't surprise me if something terrible happened.
The Rams are potentially on qb #3 this week if Kyle Boller's thigh injury isn't healed. Bulger is out. There is absolutely no reason why the Texans shouldn't win this one big...except for the fact that it's the Texans. FYI...no tv in Austin for the 2nd consecutive week. KEYE is going with Miami @ Tennessee.
This is the first time the Texans have played in St. Louis. After the game they will have visited all the other teams in the NFL. The Texans are 0-10 all time playing in a dome. I'm hoping Edward Jones Dome is kinder to the Texans than the other domes. Let's hope the Rams are in tank mode. They need to keep losing to secure the #1 pick in the draft. Tampa Bay is nipping at their heels. If the Texans don't beat themselves they should come out with a victory. Texans 29 Rams 15 Btw, the Rams will be wearing the jersey colors from their championship year.
Sadly, it's no win situation time for the Texans. Win and we're still sour on the season that should have been. Lose and we want them all boiled in acid. Ugh. Out of the running for a good draft pick (mathematically impossible to get better than #5, realistically not possible to crack top 10). Out of the running for the wild card (would take several acts of god).
Lot of scoreboard watching this weekend. Hopefully the right teams lose and make it interesting for a few more weeks. Texans 45 Rams 17
Texans 55 St. Louis 23 - their passing is horrendous, but their running backs find ways to keep us from tackling them... GO TEXANS!!!!!
Texans win Schaub gets again 300+ yards paasing AJ got another 100+ game but Stephen Jackson of the Rams gets over 100+ rushing.
Get ready for another helping of "inspired football" against a terrible team in a meaningless game with virtually nothing on the line, all so we can save the job of our thoroughly mediocre head coach. Oh boy! Can you feel the excitement?
Jet, what's that website where you get all these cool stats again? You posted it early in the season. Thanks for sharing.
I'm guessing over 100 from scrimmage. Not 100 rushing. Or at the very least, his YPC will be under 4.
