Funny Guy...

Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...

by Tim on Oct 26, 2008 9:35 PM CDT up reply actions  

Starting the second half

just like we started the first. Medium length pass play to AJ over the middle.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 26, 2008 4:35 PM CDT reply actions  

A couple of mediocre runs by Slaton

and then another pass to AJ for the first down.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 26, 2008 4:37 PM CDT reply actions  

Haha.

Andre Johnson makes this sport really easy, huh?

by Nashmeister on Oct 26, 2008 4:38 PM CDT reply actions  

My fantasy team

I’ve got Schaub, Daniels, and Slaton started this week. I almost swung an Andre Johnson for Plax Burress trade in week 3… if only, if only…

by socctty on Oct 26, 2008 4:42 PM CDT up reply actions  

words I never want to see again

Rosy should start over Teh Schaub.

Thanks for listening.

by bigfatdrunk on Oct 26, 2008 4:41 PM CDT reply actions  

He may never start again.

But the Rosencopter lasts for eternity.

by DisplacedTexan on Oct 26, 2008 4:43 PM CDT up reply actions  

Petey?

Left alone with Ocho Cinco? And made a play?

Be still my heart.

by DisplacedTexan on Oct 26, 2008 4:48 PM CDT reply actions  

Well, they were at the fifteen.

And Petey’s coverage is tight for about 95 yards. It’s just outside of that range that he struggles.

by Nashmeister on Oct 26, 2008 4:50 PM CDT up reply actions  

more words I never want to hear again

Richard Smith, Defensive Coordinator of the Houston Texans.

by bigfatdrunk on Oct 26, 2008 4:51 PM CDT reply actions  

Walter TD

Should have made sure he was down…

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 26, 2008 4:53 PM CDT reply actions  

Walter

caught the ball and fell down. The Cincy defender went to go touch him, so he’d be down by contact, but by the time he got there, Walter was already up. The defender just nudged him, and Walter kept running.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 26, 2008 4:55 PM CDT up reply actions  

Holy Crap

Is this what it feels like to be on the other side of this sort of thing?

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 26, 2008 4:54 PM CDT up reply actions  

K-Dub

You are awesome on so many levels.

by DisplacedTexan on Oct 26, 2008 4:54 PM CDT reply actions  

Greatest. Offense. Ever.

And greatest benching of T.O. in favor of K-Dub ever.

by Nashmeister on Oct 26, 2008 4:54 PM CDT reply actions  

So nice to read

2-10 CIN31 (5:49) R.Fitzpatrick pass short middle to R.Kelly to CIN 38 for 7 yards (D.Robinson; Z.Diles).
1-10 CIN31 (6:23) C.Benson right end to CIN 31 for no gain (D.Robinson, T.Bulman).

by socctty on Oct 26, 2008 4:59 PM CDT reply actions  

Oh come on

Seriously? They’re going to flag that?

by DisplacedTexan on Oct 26, 2008 5:04 PM CDT reply actions  

Eh.

Gave up the first-down anyways. In typical Richard-Smith fashion. Worthless hack…

by Nashmeister on Oct 26, 2008 5:05 PM CDT up reply actions  

FUMBLE

Mario Williams with the strip. Amobi Okoye with the recovery.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 26, 2008 5:06 PM CDT reply actions  

I was just

about to ask about how Mario was doing. Just looking at the gamecenter site on NFL.com…

by socctty on Oct 26, 2008 5:07 PM CDT up reply actions  

Team MVP?

Or Andre Johnson? Hard call for me to make.

by socctty on Oct 26, 2008 5:07 PM CDT up reply actions  

Doesn't it seem like

half of Mario’s sacks are forced fumbles? I don’t recall seeing a lineman be that consistent about it. He never personally recovers them, though.

by socctty on Oct 26, 2008 5:10 PM CDT up reply actions  

This year?

Or career? Is a “FF” recorded even if the offense recovers it?

by socctty on Oct 26, 2008 5:19 PM CDT up reply actions  

Beast.

I’m always surprised that more sacks don’t go for forced fumbles though. Half the time the QB is just palming the ball; you’d think if the DE/LB just slid their arms down when they wrapped up, they’d knock it loose every time. I guess the game just moves too fast to thing about that though.

by Nashmeister on Oct 26, 2008 5:14 PM CDT up reply actions  

Green

Looks like he might actually break one soon

by kozanack on Oct 26, 2008 5:12 PM CDT reply actions  

Green

Is a completely different runner now that he’s got Slaton to share the backfield with.

by DisplacedTexan on Oct 26, 2008 5:13 PM CDT reply actions  

Is it odd

That I’d rather have 3&6 over 3&1?

by DisplacedTexan on Oct 26, 2008 5:21 PM CDT reply actions  

Slaton finally gets a good run in

First one of the game, and he takes it in for a TD.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 26, 2008 5:22 PM CDT reply actions  

Seems a little too boom/bust for my comfort

But the FootballOutsiders guys seem to think highly of him, meaning that he’s doing well in the situations he’s put in. I can’t wait to see how he ends up at the end of the year…

by socctty on Oct 26, 2008 5:24 PM CDT up reply actions  

I

Love that boy!!!!

GO TEXANS!!!!!!!!!

by Texanmaniac on Oct 26, 2008 5:22 PM CDT reply actions  

lol stats

benson: 11 carries for 46 yards
fitzpatrick: 6 carries for 39 yards

by cubic on Oct 26, 2008 5:27 PM CDT reply actions  

Doth mine eyes deceive me?

Or did Travis Johnson just get the second sack of his underwhelming career?

by Nashmeister on Oct 26, 2008 5:28 PM CDT reply actions  

hooray

eugene wilson intercepts a pass, doesn’t fumble

by cubic on Oct 26, 2008 5:28 PM CDT up reply actions  

Is that true!?

Oh my god… that’s outrageous…

by socctty on Oct 26, 2008 5:29 PM CDT up reply actions  

ROBBERY!

Eugene Wilson absolute STOLE that ball.

by DisplacedTexan on Oct 26, 2008 5:28 PM CDT reply actions  

Nice.

And he didn’t even cough it up afterwards!

by Nashmeister on Oct 26, 2008 5:28 PM CDT reply actions  

well

that fukin rocked!!!

GO TEXANS!!!!!!!!!

by Texanmaniac on Oct 26, 2008 5:28 PM CDT reply actions  

Why did he try and run that back?

I’m glad he got the INT, and I’m glad that he’s playing FS, but didn’t he learn anything from the Miami game?

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 26, 2008 5:28 PM CDT reply actions  

And unnecessary.

Pound it up the middle, try to pin them in their own end-zone.

by Nashmeister on Oct 26, 2008 5:33 PM CDT up reply actions  

Starters

Get them out of the game (Andre, Matt, Stevie)

by kozanack on Oct 26, 2008 5:33 PM CDT reply actions  

Nevermind

They took care of it themselves

by kozanack on Oct 26, 2008 5:33 PM CDT up reply actions  

ALERT

Special teams still hittin’ people.

by DisplacedTexan on Oct 26, 2008 5:34 PM CDT reply actions  

The punting game is not strong today.

Luckily, we didn’t have to do it all that much. But Turk gets the day off after his performance last week anyways.

by Nashmeister on Oct 26, 2008 5:35 PM CDT reply actions  

i know! i really loved the slaton/green combo. hopefully green’s okay

by cubic on Oct 26, 2008 5:40 PM CDT up reply actions  

D-Rob

It’s a junk INT, but it doesn’t matter.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 26, 2008 5:39 PM CDT reply actions  

Sweet.

Just when I thought this game couldn’t get any better.

by Nashmeister on Oct 26, 2008 5:40 PM CDT up reply actions  

Game

Largest margin of victory in the history of the Texans.

So the message to take away from this game, is that when we win the turnover battle, we win by nearly 30 points.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 26, 2008 5:45 PM CDT reply actions  

I know this is garbage time

But I like Moats. Right after the first series of cuts in training camp, I put him down as one of the three guys (along with DeShawn Wynn and Marcus Thomas) that I wanted us to bring in.
