Can't underestimate the Raiders. Their offense sucks, but their secondary is really good. They can't stop the run well, so we have to attack that. We must remember that our secondary sucks as well and they can attack us the same way.
And ya'll keep on talking about things OTHER THAN the Texans vs. the Raiders... ok... I guess I must join ya'll... Here it is UNCROPPED:
The Texans can't afford to underrate anyone....but let's not overrate the Raiders, either. The Texans are good enough to win this game. They should win this game. If you're good enough to sweep the Jags, you're good enough to beat the Oakland Raiders.
They were good enough to beat the Jets, but that didn't happen. The Raider defense is much better than NYJ. This will be a low scoring game, where defenses get credit for points.
I'm not saying they're GONNA win. But I expect them to win this game. Seriously. Am I crazy??? (though it looks like it's Raiders -3 in Vegas...so maybe i am crazy) of course, we're never gonna survive...unless...we get a little crazy.
I have to say I'm a little jealous. I wished I looked like that, and could play football like that. That b*stard could have any chick he wants.
two things: 1.) is this the first time a "game thread" (although not "official") hasn't been a "sticky" the day before the actual game? 2.) once again, cbs in austin has chosen vince over the Texannes.
The Texans / Raiders game should have a warning aired before it starts: This NFL game may contain content that may be offensive to some viewers. To protect our fans from viewing subpar game play and sportsmanship, we require you the fan to prepare and agree that viewing this game may permanently harm your health.
Hilarious! Solid post. Truth hurts. Another thing, should have an option. Select 1 if you really want to watch this, select 2 .... To confirm do you REALLY want to watch this? Do you have any idea how boring this game will be? Do yourself a favor and go clean out the garage until at least 5 minutes are left and the Texans go prevent with the score 14-10 Texans and with a chance to win it on 3rd and goal, the Raiders lose a yard and have no timeouts and no way to stop the clock. Wouldnt that be hilarious!
I'm disappointed I won't get to see it here in Austin, again. I understand why. There's no sense in complaining. I know they suck but I still want to watch. Oh well... Texans 31 Raiders 17
I know, it kind of sucks that its not on the air. Its like a car wreck, you know you shouldn't watch, but you just have to. We do however get to see the Great One play the colts
I pick the Raiders in what will go down as ugliest game in NFL history. Raiders - 6 Texans - 3 Curiosly, if and when the Texans loose, what positives will the sunshine pumpers cling to???
It was the Raiders defense that won the game and that Carr is still better then any Raiders quarterback.
Titans play at noon. Texans play at 3. They still may not be showing it (They're not showing the Titans in Houston) but it's not because they're showing the Tenn game.
I don't know about the football, but there is no reason why you can't look something like that if you wanted to. It's not like he was born that way.
