Indeed, but that was a pretty shitty decision there at the end. I'm still pissed about this, my team lost, I lost all of my fg in the process, and now I found out the d2 ladder is resetting so I have no means of making more fg. Oh well. I wanted the Texans to be 4-1, I'm just glad I decided to go to the Steelers game instead of this one.

not saying he didnt make dumb plays today, just saying this game isn't on him. he had a game winning td pass, only to be dropped.

beast list: schaub, foster, tate, daniel, johnson, dreessen, oline, jonathan joseph, brice mccain, cushing, barwin, reed, watt, smith, quin, manning, and rackers

8 vs Jacksonville
9 vs Cleveland
10 @ Tampa Bay
11 BYE WEEK
12 @ Jacksonville
13 vs Atlanta
14 @ Cincinnati
15 vs Carolina
16 @ Indianapolis
17 vs Tennessee

I think the bold are wins, barring any more injuries. Jacksonville has been awful, and is starting Gabbert for the 2nd time(I know Im wrong on this, but he's still a rookie QB). Cleveland is meh, good QB, good RBs, but Peyton Hillis' been hurt and their Oline and WRs are terrible. Not sure how good their D is tho. Tampa Bay is good/okay, but both of their RBs are out I believe, and Freeman had a terrible game. I think if we can force him to throw on 3rd and long all day, we got this. They did beat the Saints tho, but imo they're inconsistent. Toss up game, but I expect a win. Jacksonville, terrible like I said, just need to contain MJD, and pressure Gabbert. Atlanta, we're home, but their offense has been weird, really haven't been able to do what they do best. Great team, but beatable. Close game, but they come out with the win. Cincy, IDK. Good D, good RBs, Good WR, TE, and Dalton isn't too bad for a rookie QB. Carolina, contain Cam. We should be able to beat them, but we have to contain Cam and pressure and bring him down. Indy, wouldn't be surprised if Peyton is back, but they've been terrible and I wouldn't be scared of Peyton after no practices and such. Just need to run, run, and run. And we need to play the Titans again like we did today.

No reason why we shouldn't go 6-0 in AFC South. IMO we have to go at least 5-1 to win this division.

#8 in ppg on offense w/ 26, and #5 top 5 defense w/ 18.7 ppg.

Can't believe we have a top 5 defense...lol.

we're also #5 in turnover ratio, +6.

5-3

3-0 against AFC South

Cleveland next week

The 1-2 punch of Foster and Tate is starting to heat up. Not a great game today by any means (give credit to a decent Jaguars defensive line) but Foster still racked up a lot of carries and Tate had two explosive runs. The fumble late in the game by Tate that allowed Jacksonville to get 14 points was frustrating though. Still some mistakes I'm seeing but those can be corrected. The defense did a great job today -- basically shut out the Jaguars.

Both of the Jaguar Touchdowns came off Schaub and Tate turnovers that set the Jags up in great field position. I don't blame one bit of that on another great effort by the defense. Brooks Reed continues to get better and better each start he gets. A tough task replacing Mario Williams but this guy has all the energy and athleticism to get it done. He had one bonehead penalty today but that's a rookie mistake.

Daryl Sharpton is out for the season, fuck. Who's our backup ILB now? Just checked, it's Tim Dobbins...holy fuck, is there a solid ILB in the FA?

Who would've thought our defense was going to keep us in the games or win the games in the offseason?

and can we bench KJ already? Jason Allen isn't great or all, but at least he gets us interceptions.

I think we should try to get Lofa Tatupu if he's in shape, don't know anyone else that's in FA.

So from what I've gathered there are 3 Texans fans on this forum. Myself, Draino, and Madmartigan. Yeeah.
