Three And Out: Useless Predictions For Sunday's Game

I think this team A) plays much better after being ripped by hometown media/fans B) will bounce back after a bad loss and C) are focused on sending a home crowd happy for once.

The Chiefs don’t want to turn this into a shoot-out…because that’s not their kind of game, so I feel like the offense can get enough points…especially if Matt can find his tight ends.

1) Offense: Schaub throws two TDs, one to Dreessen on a bootleg in the red zone, the other to Andre Johnson on a deep bomb from play action.

2) Defense: No INT this week, but defense will get 5 sacks and force and recover a fumble. Sacks- Mario: 2.5 Antonio: 1.5 and FF Cushing: 1. Nading: FR

3) Special Teams: Jacoby Jones will return a punt for 20+ yards. Slaton will piss me off at least twice.

Texans over Chefs 27-16

So let’s say 24-27 points for the chiefs.

We need to score 28 or my by my count, and then victory

If our offense gets going then yeah.. its gonna be a shoot out.

       I really think the Texans have the upper hand, I think as TexansDC put it, you will be motivated to get your act together after last week. Your guys will be focused and pumped up in front of a home crowd, ready to finish strong before the bye.

Your offense is much more potent than ours. Matt Cassell is in the bottom 5 on completion percentage, yards per catch, and we are 10% on third downs. Yes, I said 10%. Our strengths are our defense and running game.

Indy had nine men in the box last week and we couldn’t pass the ball. In fact we didn’t even try to stretch the Dfense and keep them honest. Only against the 49ers did we really get going offensively. With your run D we are not likely to score very much. As much as I want to say 21-17 Chiefs, I am expecting you to put up more points than we can cover. Ahhh, well forget that, I believe in my team no matter what so I change that ……Chiefs 21-17……but, if you can score more than 21 you probably have us.

This is how shit is going down.

Texans are down but score a TD with just over 2 minutes to go to go up by 4. Texans kick off, and Chiefs take over at the 27 yard line. First down, Jamaal Charles runs for 9. 2 minute warning. 2nd down Cassel throws a Cassel Bomb™ 19 yards to Dwayne Bowe but ball hits him in the facemask and falls harmlessly to the ground. Third down and 1. Cassel attempts to hit Moeaki going across the middle but Bernard Pollard picks it off. Instead of going down, he attempts to take it to the house and starts high stepping around the 30 yard line. Dexter McCluster runs from behind him and strips the ball around the Chiefs 7 yard line and picks it up and runs 93 yards for the game winning Touchdown.

Boom.

Man your soccer team almost did it in last years olympics………so no third downs, we might have a chance then!

You do matchup well against our offense. Trust me, for some reason we do not believe in passing the football. Seriously, I think we passed for under a hundred yards three times this season, ….seriously.

On if Kubes/Bush is willing to mix it up a bit… IT just seems like we don’t run often enough, and schaub seems to be holding on to the ball way too long. Frank needs to throw out the red carpet zone go man, and zone blitz all day. send cushing at least 75% of the time with the other 25% going to Meco, Pollard, or even a CB. I want our entire front four to be in cassel’s jock strap all game long… and if Mario gets a big hit early on I def think Matt will be screwed for the rest of the game.

I’m not gonna bother with the rest of the team, they are so inconsistent I don’t know what to think.

the shipped gets righted giving all the hopelessly devoted a nice 2 week break and then a swift kick in the nutz on Nov 1st.

Offense:

Schaub- 220 yards, 2 TDs, 2 INTs

Foster- 53 yards rushing, another 30 receiving, fumble lost

Cassel- 268 yards, 3 TDs, 1 INT

Charles/Jones- combined 106 yards, 1 TD

Defense:

Brandon Flowers- INT

Tamba Hali- 2 sacks

Glenn Dorsey- 2 TFLs, 1 sack

Eric Berry- INT

Bernard Pollard- INT

Mario Williams- 1 sack

Amobi Okoye- 1 sack

Earl Mitchell- 1 sack

Special Teams:

Dexter McCluster- KR/PR for a TD

Jacoby Jones- muffed punt, does not recover

Chiefs win 28-17.

Just like we expected a win vs the Giants and Cowgirls, and a loss vs the Colts and Skins (even late in the third)….

we win handily this weekend, and look good doing it. Because the fanbase is not expecting anything. Hell, the defense will be the reason we win. 13-3.

Frank Bush will be retained thru the bye. Book it.

 if Texans can put 2 positive plays together back to back

I hope the offense recovers from the charisma bypass they have had at home lately.

If they do there will be bunches of points – Texans win by three Something like 38-35

Kubiak reaches his ceiling as he employs thr prevent offense in the 4th quarter, causing fans to channel surf… NFL fines Kubiak.

Texans D holds their rushing yards under 50. While the secondary continues to make each teams QB look like the seasons MVP. Cassel will throw for 3 TD’s early before our D, (don’t freak out on me) adjusts and holds the chiefs to only a FG in the 2nd half. Jacoby will drop at least 5 passes one in the end zone and rackers will miss a short FG. Do i want things to go down like this, no but in my experience I’ve learned to expect the worst and hope for the best that way you keep the disappointment to a minimum some Sunday.

Then the next 10 games we’ll find out who the real Texans are.

Besides, it’s a home game. Since we became a better road team, our home record has been horrible.

We’ll be 5-3 at the halfway mark of the season though.

But then again so has teh Shaub and Dennison, it seems :)

Texans still lose on a last minute field goal.
