PrintHouston Texans at Arizona Cardinals, Oct 11, 2009 3:15 PM CDT
Despite all the twists and turns of the season thus far, your Houston Texans can climb to 3-2 with a win in Arizona today. Before the season started, many observers noted that the Texans should've been 3-1 after their first four games, considering the opponents. Well, considering the fifth opponent is the Cardinals and the game is on the road, I think many of those observers (including yours truly) figured the Texans, had they posted a 3-1 start, would be 3-2 after today's game. In other words, a win today seemingly puts the Texans right back on track to where many of us thought they'd be.
With that in mind, leave your pre-game, in-game, and/or post-game jubilation and humiliation in the Comments below. GO TEXANS!

It feels weird cheering for a team with Dallas on their uniforms
so I’ll just focus on the Texans part, and laugh at the Cowboys.

“He practiced and was a little tender but we got some good work out of him,” head coach Gary Kubiak said. “I’d say he’s a game time decision. We’ll get him up Sunday morning and work him out and see where he’s at. But we think he has a good chance.”

Predictions
Both teams put up monstrous offensive stats but have a rough time closing the deal.
JJ has another TD.
We don’t force a single TO.
Cards – 37
Texans – 34
If this game were at home, I’d reverse it.

Texans win a shootout
Mario will play. That’s what he does baby!
by AllenOU on Oct 11, 2009 12:29 PM CDT via mobile reply actions
My opinion is that Texans DONT win in a shootout with the Cards.
Really think they need to establish the run and keep their offense on the sideline.

David Carr in the game against the Raiders
Q: Who would get screwed more in a JaMarcus Russel – David Carr trade?
Your friendly neighborhood Dream Shake mod.
Jamarcus Russell
7/12, 87 yds. In the fourth quarter.
So, so bad.

Watching him play
I get a feel for what other teams’ fans must have thought when we trotted David Carr out there.
The Raiders are just a joke.

David Carr: 9/14, 90 yds passing and a rushing TD.
The Raiders truly are awful…

His mechanics have gotten better. Yet he still looked jittery under pressure.

Or that every rushing play would result in a first down.

AJ already has half the catches he had all last week.

Cards are giving AJ a lot of room on the line...

but we are talking about one of the leagues worst running games in the league. And not to mention the arizona secondary is beat up.
I think we were
padding the punt. Keepin’ em inside their 20.
I like the call.
Smushiak will take us to the playoffs in 2009.
Ummm
Not to be alarmist, but Schaub looks hurt. His shoulder. He’s got nothing on his throws and his accuracy is poor. AND, most importantly, his motion looks way different.
Note to self: Insert something witty here.
Need to get pressure on Warner
Or else he’s gonna pick the secondary apart… Watch him use the flat to soften up the D, then he’ll find Fitz long.

we earned that TO.
But can we stop them consistently, thats the problem for the rest of the game.

Looked like a pretty clean pop and recovery to me. Why challenge?

bouncing
I think they should hire a porn star to sit on the sideline butt naked. And every time one of these bums drops a ball or misses a tackle they have to go do some 12 inch bouncin’. I’m tired of the lack of punishment for these over payed, undertalented children.
