Prediction

Texans march the ball down on the first possession and score a TD.

Vikings respond immediately with a passing TD.

I kick stuff.

by HoustonDiehards on Nov 2, 2008 1:32 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

Guessing

That the passing TD will be to Berrian, with coverage (or lack thereof) by a certain faux Frenchman.

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

Kubes is making the right call here

I love Matt. I’m 100% pro Matt… but like JMP said – a healthy Sage is better than a hurt Schaub, especially since our offense has so much misdirection/bootleg, etc.

Nope

We still have a chance to artificially inflate our hopes.

YEAH!!

Yay false hope! Yay!!

Healthy and Turnover free 2008-09, and we win 11!

there will always be time

for the negative thoughts AFTER the game,

but we have two more minutes of hope

Healthy and Turnover free 2008-09, and we win 11!

That’s the title of the 2008 team dvd.

Jesus.

Why couldn’t they have turked us there? We’ve been on our own ten all day.

I am a violent hurricane of emotions right now.

Any way we slice it, this somehow ends poorly.

by DisplacedTexan on Nov 2, 2008 2:51 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

I bet we score

then go for 2 and Jacoby drops it

Healthy and Turnover free 2008-09, and we win 11!

If Rosy leads us down for a TD...

I’ll call it even.

If he converts a 2-pt conversion too, he’s in the green.

Here we go

Let’s see if it’s a textbook Elway style drive…

Some teams play games on Sunday...ours goes to War. Go Texans!!!

Way to

step up. What character.

by Jersey Bill on Nov 2, 2008 2:56 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

Sage

Is there anyone who still thinks he should be starting? If so, I’d refer them to the Rosencopter and the complete lack of presence he’s shown today. I want to punch a nun right now.

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

28-21

Is in no way reflective of the game we just watched. That should have been a 35-3 behind-the-woodshed beatdown.

He's a middle reliever...

Definitely not a closer.

Not there yet

And even if I was – what the fuck do we draft? So much to fix.

by HoustonDiehards on Nov 2, 2008 2:59 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

thats easy: corner, safety or qb

when will the losing end? THIS WEEK!!!!!!!

by m1 on Nov 2, 2008 3:00 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Are DC

available in the draft?

by Jersey Bill on Nov 2, 2008 3:00 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

no, but we sure as hell need to find a way to do it

when will the losing end? THIS WEEK!!!!!!!

by m1 on Nov 2, 2008 3:10 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Cedric Benson has 101 yards

and a TD. Thank God that didn’t happen to us.
