Our defense LOVES to suck in the second half

But who knows? So far, so good.

Tony Ugoh

If he doesn’t get any help, Mario might destroy his life essence. Unreal how bad Mario is pwning him.

When I'm on the mic, I'm like global warming, you can't ignore me.

Fun to watch though.

Mario has been close to Payton about 6 times.

I'm expecting Ugoh to do just that

Our pass rush has been pretty good.

Our d is a lot better when the Colts drop passes.

You know, it would make total sense for Houston to win this game

…on the road, against a good team – a team we’ve only beaten ONCE in our history.

That way we could all say “hey, they clearly can play with anyone, they had this big road win, maybe they CAN win enough to make the playoffs!”

I mean seriously – Texans fans? How could that NOT happen to us?

Richards plan for this game

was for them to drop passes and get penalties.

They didn’t stick to the game plan in the second half.

9 of 13 on 3rd down conversions

and 4 dropped passes.

Great job D.

How are we even in this?

This team is so baffling. Every week we look like shit. Yet every week (save Baltimore) we’re somehow in the game.

by DisplacedTexan on Nov 16, 2008 2:45 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

I think we have a "keep it close" mentality

which works in games like this, but when you are way ahead, we’re the same way, and it sucks.

then rosey will take us to their 10 and fumble, pick it up, and throw a pick.

Bad spot

They’ll get a first down out of this I bet.

actually this is my game prediction

indy field goal
super steve has a 60 yard td
colts do a two minute drill against our horrible defense and win anyway
everyone who commented here drowns their sorrows and wakes up in jail

Even if the play doesn't get overturned

They’d be stupid not to go for it against our D.

since my stream fucked up

what exactly is getting reviewed? a first down?

by cubic on Nov 16, 2008 2:48 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

Spot of the ball.

It would be 4th and 1 if it stands.

by DisplacedTexan on Nov 16, 2008 2:48 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

oh that doesn't even matter

4th and 1 might as well be a first down

a timeout there doesn't make sense

you save max 8 seconds.

wait until just after the 2 min in case they throw it, saving a timeout or 40 seconds

Can’t score too quick, because Peyton will win the game for ’em.

That exploded through the OL there and got to Peyton? Because he gets the game ball.

Time to be a hero, Rosenfels.

And there’s only one way to do it. Traditional two-minute drill sideline passes are forgotten.

Helicoptering into four defenders is forever.

Eh, give Sage a break.

And fuck Richard Smith and this defense for putting us in that position every fucking week.

Here’s a fun stat: We’ve given up over 30 points six out of ten games this season.
We’ve given up over 28+ eight out of ten games this season.
We’ve given up 20+ nine out of ten games this season.
We’ve giving up an average of 28.7 ppg.

Nobody wins with a defense that pathetic. Coming into today’s game was the first time in the past two years that I just haven’t cared at all about this team. And until Richard Smith gets canned, I doubt that’s going to change at all.
