Prediction
Texans march the ball down on the first possession and score a TD.
Vikings respond immediately with a passing TD.
I kick stuff.
In this crazy world of yours...
Does Frenchy get beat? I just can’t see that happening.

And yet...
…he’s our only points.
The world is a confusing place.

My Crystal Ball
Jacquees Reeves desperately tries to strip the ball from “WHO?” as he runs into the Endzone
Some teams play games on Sunday...ours goes to War. Go Texans!!!
Sage
I think Sage > a rattled one legged Schaub . I’m kind of suprised we haven’t seen him sooner.

Enberg
Can we start keeping track of all the awkward and vaguely suggestive things he says this half?
I used to love the guy.
But the older he gets… etc.

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.
His late-game stuff
Is practically Gange-esque.

Why was Andre and K-Dub in the same spot?

I think Sage has
a quicker release, and is more decisive
Healthy and Turnover free 2008-09, and we win 11!
I like the middle reliever analogy
He looks great in short bursts.
by Tailgate Andy on Nov 2, 2008 1:47 PM CST up reply actions
Compared to...
A rattled one legged Schaub, Yes.
A Schaub who slaps his sausage on most DB’s forehads? No.

Hey, great more fucking dancing
Look at the fucking scoreboard asshat.
I’m seriously about to turn on DA. I’m sick of this fucking dancing shit.
Yeah… I overreact a lot.
Perfect Texans football
TD!!!!
Open up the pass with the run….and just dink and dunk our way down the field.
Some teams play games on Sunday...ours goes to War. Go Texans!!!
Finally started to find those creases in the zone

A Sage Fan
I am not anymore…. but
I have to agree healthy Sage > Injured Schaub
Healthy and Turnover free 2008-09, and we win 11!
No doubt
Schaub’s lack of big-time arm strength + the motion our passing game runs makes that a sure thing.

It's horseshit that players do when they don't know what winning is.

Agreed
Would have like to see a high five for them to run off the field with their head high.

gotta cut him some slack
its catch #5 of the year
think of it as overcompensating
Healthy and Turnover free 2008-09, and we win 11!
whatever our offense does
we will lose if we can’t stop them every now and then during the second half

keep feeding him
Frerotte is killing us… and by us I mean Frenchy

Texans D is barking...
Lets see them force a punt

Smith @ Practice.
Some teams play games on Sunday...ours goes to War. Go Texans!!!
That will end up being huge
But hey – we got a stop.
Let’s tie this motherfucker up and put all our faith in Sage.
And by faith – I mean hopes to see our receivers dance like faries.
Well, this is a nice surprise.
Here’s my plan:
Step 1) Let Rosenfels lead us to a 4th-quarter lead.
Step 2) With three minutes left in the game, put in Alex Brink (is he still on the team?).
Step 3) Profit?
Ahhhh.
I needed to pass that stone.
Thank you Sage.
Fuck.
Some teams play games on Sunday...ours goes to War. Go Texans!!!
Ouch.
I’m having Tennessee-game flashbacks. How many fucking times have we had the ball in their territory without coming away with anything?
I like the PA call
I just don’t like the routes…
Got Texans? Visit BattleRedBlog.com for the latest on your Houston Texans!
I think so...
I’m up to like seven mother fuckers…
Mother fucker
eight.

You think the call was for a run and Sage improved?
Got Texans? Visit BattleRedBlog.com for the latest on your Houston Texans!
I think the call
was for “don’t fuck up” and he RosenFAILed.
Yay, sports.

Alex Gibbs
Just chewed Sages ass…

There we go.
At least one positive thing is constant.
Stab Richard Smith
Light Jacques Reeves on fire.
Lock Petey Faggins in a closet.
Yay, sports.
by MDC on Nov 2, 2008 2:11 PM CST up reply actions
Well played
Must be softening in your age… Last year you would have killed Petey with a million papercuts…
Got Texans? Visit BattleRedBlog.com for the latest on your Houston Texans!
I've decided
that Reeves is somehow worse. Petey probably should die, but Reeves deserves the scorn right now.
Yay, sports.

Alright Sage.
You could redeem yourself and this franchise if you march us down the field to the promised land. Take care of business.

and our season rides on
Sage Rosenfels leading this team to victory

Veteran move there
Instead of trying to hit that corner, he cut it in for the sure-thing first down. Love it.

Imagine him two years from today
He’s going to that much better

whoever is bringing the myp2p feed
apparently likes either the BE-SF’s or the Pack…
or so I’ve heard from a “friend” watching it.

if he needs to stop the clock later
he’ll just dive into the defenders and fumble for a score…. stopping the clock

Is that why we called a timeout?
A fucking penalty and a faild screen?

That was Ephraim Salaam.

a FG there
and I’d say our chances were pretty good…

Why is Turk so horrible today?
I’m having Chad Stanley flashbacks.
drive predictions
1. 6 mins taken off the clock, TD
2. Pick by Robinson
3. Punt

DeMeco blew the tackle...

If somebody is
getting juked out of their jock or busting through tackles, Frenchy is right there pretending to do something.
Is it just me
Or is this the biggest 7-point blowout ever?
How is it that we are so, so out of this game, yet only down seven points?
yes a FG here ends it
We are not the Colts, and they are not the Texans
Healthy and Turnover free 2008-09, and we win 11!
At least we have good dancers though!
Thank god all those interviews and discussions about dancing resulted in us prepping adequately for the Vikings!
/does string dance
/cuts the string
/cuts skin off face
3 TD passes.
3 TD passes. Frerotte has 3 TD passes. I don’t know what else could happen that would allow Smith to keep his job.
Do the String Dance!
Ugh…
Got Texans? Visit BattleRedBlog.com for the latest on your Houston Texans!
Yeah, but we'll get a TD first.
I’ve found that losses hurt more when you think you have a chance to actually win. And of course, Rosenfails is all about causing pain.

Nothing garbage time about this
But do we onsides if we score?
by DisplacedTexan on Nov 2, 2008 2:43 PM CST up reply actions
3 minutes
one TO, and most importantly: Richard Smith.
Hell yea we onside it.
I just assumed
that Slaton was bringing his world famous Chinstrap Clinic on the road with him.

Funny thing is...
If we were in the Vikings position right now, we’d already be writing this off as a loss.

Nope
We still have a chance to artificially inflate our hopes.

but we have two more minutes of hope

Jesus.
Why couldn’t they have turked us there? We’ve been on our own ten all day.
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!!!
Fail fail fail fail fail fail
You FAIL Sage Rosenfails….

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.

Is anyone else starting to think draft pick?
Gawdammit.

Not there yet
And even if I was – what the fuck do we draft? So much to fix.

thats easy: corner, safety or qb
when will the losing end? THIS WEEK!!!!!!!
