After Thoughts

I've been thinking alot about the Texans loss to the cowboys. I had to listen to cowboys fans I work with and I've read blogs, telling me how my team sucks. So I just wanted to give a thoughts.

First off is it just my maniac alter ego thinking this or is defensive holding the worst call in the NFL? I realize you cannot hold a reciever going for the ball, but the ball should have something to do with the play! Dammnit that play pissed me off!

We bitched and complained about our lack of pass rush, but our QB's were hurried and hit and not sacked. Mario was disruptive and he was doubled and held almost the whole time he was in.

Our Running Backs, Chris Taylor and Steve Slaton looked pretty good.... I think a healthy Tayor and Slaton with Walker is a hell of alot better than watching Green and Brown limp of the field after 2 plays.

The play calling was very vanilla and Schaub matched Romo's yards and completions.

One major plus in my eyes.... make that two..... We didn't turn the ball over and no major injuries to key players

I'm not forgetting Harry Williams, may he recover fully. Could you Imagine having to play a game, you know your fans have to have you win, even though it's preseason, after seeing one of your teamates lying motionless?

I don't really considera it a well played game, but I thought our boys did a pretty Damn good Job at making it a game....... And we almost won!

Nothing Counts in the Preseason

tell those Cowboy fans we still have a good chance of wining a playoff game before they do. that’s all that counts. nothing has been decided yet. i’m surprised anyone cares who wins a preseason game. I believe the Colts went 0-4 in preseason the year they won the super bowl. I would never brag that the Texans beat anyone in a preseason game. It’s just ignorant. I dont’ care if it is the upstate rival. The players who have jobs don’t give a shit, why should we?

because

It’s Dullass, damn-it. Their fans are arrogant for no reason. They haven’t won a meaningful (post season) game in 12 years and are still a bunch of condescending bandwaggoners.
