Open Game Day Thread--Baltimore v. Houston
Baltimore Ravens at Houston Texans, Nov 9, 2008 12:00 PM CST
Last year, your Houston Texans started 3-5. They then went out and won their ninth game. With Sage Rosenfels starting as their QB. An omen of things to come today when the Ravens invade Reliant? Or a mere coincidence? You make the call.
Leave your pre-game, in-game, and post-game remarks and pleas to the Almighty in the Comments below. The second game day thread will post at 1:30 p.m. CST, so continue the festivities there at the appropriate hour. GO TEXANS!

No Texans in Austin?
SA has the game…. unless it gets out of hand.

Sage is an abusive boyfriend
And we’re all suffering from “Battered Fan Syndrome.” I still love you baby!
Good afternoon fellas

So is Demps hurt
Or has he just slid THAT far down the depth chart?

Moats
He’s a block or two away from breaking one.

If Sage gets that kind of time in the pocket
all throughout the game, there will be no excuse for not performing well on offense.
3 and Out
The funny thing is that isn’t common for the Texans… Feels sorta weird to see us 3 and outed.

Are we wearing all white?
To let them know we’ve already surrendered?
Ok ok – I’ll try to be more upbeat.

Er… Flacco. Sorry, I had a flash from three hours from now.

Geez, thank goodness
that guy doesn’t see the playing field more often. We might get sacks and stuff if we did…
Earl Cochran
shows why he’s a starter

BTW, DT and I have set the over/under for stupid rosencopter decisions + turnovers at 6. Below 6, and we win.
Protection has been there so far
He’s just making bad throws.

LOL Okam with the big splash
Okam just went Kamala on the RB
by HoustonDiehards on Nov 9, 2008 12:16 PM CST reply actions
wow...
Look, I hate injuries to anybody not named Jared Allen (or Jerry Porter, tbh), but Frenchy is looking GOOD so far.
As long as Flacco doesn't start throwing slant routes
We should be good…

Wilson was late getting over to Figurs
and whoever was supposed to be guarding him seems to have taken the play off.

The secondary is sinking our ship…

So, would you call it
the iceberg defense?
by Tailgate Andy on Nov 9, 2008 12:26 PM CST up reply actions
Icebergs are too powerful
It would be more like the leaky hull defense…
Got Texans? Visit BattleRedBlog.com for the latest on your Houston Texans!
I don't know
When it comes to sinking our season, the defense is pretty damn potent.
by Tailgate Andy on Nov 9, 2008 12:29 PM CST up reply actions
I guess Green is hurt already
Moats just had a carry.

David Anderson jumped before the snap.

Go ahead
I give you permission.
I had a mix of left overs from Fri/Sat and still asked my girl to pick me up a 12 pack… something tells me they will all be gone before the night is through.
Side note: I have the next two days off of work. A big Salute to all the Vets out there.

How is Kyle not stabbing Sage w/ his pen?
Got Texans? Visit BattleRedBlog.com for the latest on your Houston Texans!
Because it would be as ineffective as starting Sage at QB.
He needs something bigger. Like a claymore.

Jacoby is the worst good punt returner ever.

Inside the 10
Let it bounce. Let it bounce. Let it bounce. Let it bounce.
by DisplacedTexan on Nov 9, 2008 12:45 PM CST up reply actions
HEY
What did I say about fair-catching at our own five, Jacoby?
You make the call:
How does Sage screw up this drive?
I say he muffs the snap, recovers it, then tries to lateral it to Moates, but accidentally shovel passes it to Ed Reed.
this sounds like a fun game!
I say….he rolls out, slips, and when he lands he fumbles, and then an alien spaceship beams the ball to Ray Lewis, who stabs the ball.
The ref's voice amuses me
Sounds like some kind of South Park character.

yeah the feed sucks
it’s a second down call deep in texans territory. it just seems like a goofy thing to bother with

Which it was not.

How the fuck was that holding?
What the jolly-green giant?
by DisplacedTexan on Nov 9, 2008 1:09 PM CST up reply actions
Er, it was a very clear and very obvious hold by Brown
by HoustonDiehards on Nov 9, 2008 1:10 PM CST up reply actions
Looked like straight up blocking to me
Then he lost balance and went down and Lewis fell over him.
But the SlingBox is a bit grainy, so I guess I can’t see it.
by DisplacedTexan on Nov 9, 2008 1:10 PM CST up reply actions
Maybe you were watching the wrong player. Brown held Suggs. Grabbed him by the shoulder pads, and took him too the gound.

It was kinda like saying the sunday would come after saturday..

12-3
With Sage Rosenfels as the QB against Baltimore?
I’m having a hard time thinking we have any chance.
A blind pig finds an acorn every once in a while...
Our season is now… If we slip to 3-6 it’s all over. I’m sure that will be the half time speech.

Glad you still have faith in Kubes
I imagine it going something like “Hey guys. Hey guys it was on me. Sage? I didn’t meant to tell you to make a truly shitty throw at the goal line. And Frenchy? Don’t ever look backward. Ever.”

I have TOTAL faith in Kubes
I’m a huge Kubes guy. Sage? No faith.

I ca't believe they fell for teh wildcat AGAIN
I assume they will treat it as if they got burned, because if not for the bad throw, they would have.
Boys and girls,
we are just a bad team, with a poorly coached defense and we cannot stay injury free. We do not get breaks, make breaks and we commit turnovers. This is the recipe for an annual shit sandwich.
Another one, too.
I think Richard Smith’s shit-defense choclate fell into Baby Shan’s play-calling peanut butter.
We haven't seen Kris Brown for a good while

If I said it’d be 12-6 at the half, considering how we played…. would you think I was insane?
Not really
Baltimore’s not all that on offense, so it doesn’t shock me.
