Vikes' DTs Pat & Kevin Williams Expected to Play.

With all the discussion regarding the diuretics a few guys have tested positive for, my hope that the Vikings two monster defensive tackles would be suspended in time for our game with them this Sunday is now crushed.  Pro Bowlers Pat and Kevin Williams are expected to play, so I will not be trading for Slaton in my FFL anymore.

running game against the Vikings

I’m seriously hoping that Kubiak has Slaton and Green each get at least 15 carries. Sure the Vikings are going to stuff the first 10 of them for less than 3 YPC, but running the ball 30 times this game will do 3 things. It will allow the Texans to tire the Vikings D line out by making them move all over and fight cut blocks. Big Fat Pat Williams will be out of breathe. I want to see Kubiak run him off the field.

The other side of this thought is that if Schaub has more than 20 passing attempts in the 1st half, the Oline is going to be tired fighting off Jared Allen, Kevin Williams and the many lbs of Pat Williams.

The second thing running the ball on the Vikings will do will keep the Vikings secondary staring into the backfield. AJ & Walter can win their individual match ups. I think Daniels can win his as well. Having all the Vikings DBs staring into the backfield to support against the run will open things up a little more for the Texans receivers and allow the Texans offense to consistently make plays 15-20 yards down the field.

15 carries

…for Ahman Green may cause his legs to explode.

Other than that, though, I like your plan.

I was actually thinking implode, as exploding requires way too much force.

Other than that, though, I agree with your comment.

So you're saying that now I have to think of some witty Sig that will be applicable across all the SBN sites? Go TexanHornStros!
