    See the thread on a Monday. Hit the replies on Tuesday. Get nervous by Wednesday. Watch Stroud highlights on Thursday, wait all Friday and Saturday

    As much as my pessimistic side wants to kick in because I think the Colts have a very good coach and are moving in the right direction, I remember that AR is their QB. As long as the Colts can't just run the ball at will, Texans should win. The O-line will be tested by a good pass rush and must give CJ enough time. If they do, the offense should score a lot of points regardless of the running game.

    Even with missing pieces, I expect the defense to show their teeth.

    Just returned yesterday after a few days in Indy (my hometown). Talked some trash to friends. To my surprise, they all agreed the Texans should win.

    I'm so so excited ! - I got the complete Weekend off- ( Sometimes I work one day of the weekend for my landscaping business )

    I will still cheer for the Astros and the Rockets- but my main team is the Texans and has been for the a while and I'm really thinking this is going to be a special season. Please don't let me down. Let's go Texans !!!

    Thing is you don’t really need to hit AR hard. Just a simple tackle puts him on the IR.

    If AR becomes a running back, Jimmie has free rein on taking him to the ground.

    I was a long suffering Oiler fan, been a Texan fan since the beginning, and I have never seen this much pre season hype. Frankly, it worries me a bit. Now if the Texans roll over the Colts in convincing fashion, I will be totally aboard the hype train. However, my guess is that the game is going to be a close, hard fought game that might go either way.
