Like I even looked at the line

I don’t even know where to quickly FIND lines.

So, yeah, you can go with Tim, who covers.

oh wait

Or were you talking about the lines I’ll be doing off a stripper’s ass tonight if your prediction somehow turns out to be true?

hookers and blow, ftw

How else can I explain being a fan of the Texans, Rockets, Astros and SMU?

If any of those statements were surprising

Then you haven’t been paying attention to the Texans.

The only surprising thing

was the Colts blogger unshakable optimism. Yeah, we miss some hugely important players but we are still going to pwnzor the Texans.

by RocketsAstros on Nov 1, 2010 1:26 PM CDT reply actions  

I dunno

I know we have no real defense to speak of, but I have to think that our young secondary will play better against the rookies that the colts are going to have to play this week. Manning can’t catch the ball for them, and they shouldn’t have any run game at all really, so i think they may be in trouble. I think if we score 30 this game is over.

I hadn't kept up with the news after the game

But it sounds like a well-earned waive.

Was just about to post this

Vikings fans are calling for Brad Childress’s head.

big news, yes

But there has to be some news out soon about Brett Favre. There’s no way he’ll let a day go by where he’s not the lead on SportsCenter.

How much control does Childress have over personell in Minn?

What a waste of a valuable draft pick. The Vikings should have known better though.

I think the Texans

still win this game. Even though im a fan, I really think the Texans are the better football team right now and they’ll come together in a hostile environment and find a way to win the game.

So what if the Colts are “keying” on Foster this time around. That doesn’t mean they’ll be able to stop the running game; And I hope our coaching staff doesn’t outsmart themselves and come out throwing.

Manning is missing too many weapons tonight (Addai, Clark, Collie), and I surely hope we wont let some scrubs come in as “replacements” and go off on us. Manning can’t do it all. Our D will show up.

by BdoFiFtY81 on Nov 1, 2010 2:46 PM CDT reply actions  

The Houston Texans

this season LIVE to beat the Indianapolis Colts. They had the week 1 game circled on the schedule AND the week 8 game at Indy. Does anyone remember when we were owning them at home 27-10 in week 1? Same secondary, remember?

Im telling you, this season, we’re built to beat the Colts and we’re gonna win this one tonight too.

Bank on it

A lot of intelligent people are making this very argument.

by bigfatdrunk on Nov 1, 2010 2:57 PM CDT up reply actions  

Remember that the same secondary gave up 400 yards in that game though

We we’re able to get off the field on third downs and got some lucky breaks, but it’s not like we dominated on defense.

by papabear on Nov 1, 2010 2:59 PM CDT up reply actions  

How many

of those yards were from Austin Collie and Dallas Clark? Because they aren’t playing tonight lol

Like I said, I surely hope our D wont let some scrubs off the bench come in and match that performance from week 1

by BdoFiFtY81 on Nov 1, 2010 3:02 PM CDT up reply actions  

I'm not sure...but they all came from P8ton

I’m actually fairly optimistic about our chances, but realize that beating the Indianapolis Peightons on Monday night in their house is a tall order. I’m not sure the stars will ever line up again quite this well in our favor as far as catching the Colts at that right time (other than Manning actually missing a game), so I hope we can take advantage of it.

Peyton can't run their routes correctly and catch the ball for them

So having nothing but newbies in the game will hurt him no matter how good a QB he is.

by Bobbythegreat on Nov 1, 2010 3:25 PM CDT up reply actions  

They probably have good depth in TE 2-4

Oh wait, are we the only team that drafts that many TE’s?

by BrownCrayon on Nov 1, 2010 6:26 PM CDT via mobile up reply actions  

I understand your arguments

But to the matter of the score i hope your dead wrong and Houston wins and wins big against indy.

Also, for fnatasy, I need Neil Rackers to kick....sec......carry the one......ok......22 field goals. Odds?

Lol, yeah

Im trailing my opponent by 9 pts with only Cush and Rackers left to play. I think I should be alright lol

I know I'm missing out on something good...

Barracuda prevents my from viewing that. I will just have to be patient and read it later….

I am disgruntled at the moment because, truly, I can’t watch the game tonight…it’s my bowling night. Yes, that’s the truth. And, it’s position night, so the team is counting on me. Texans, you’ll have to handle the Colts without me, and from the sounds of it….bfd, too.

What do we do with traitors around here? Need to think on that….

I dub the Colts..... second best!

They won't have the game on in the bowling alley?

Speaking for myself...

I would not want to watch a Texans game armed with a bowling bowl. That’s just asking for trouble.

The game was on and I was glancing at it

My game suffered. My bowling game could be compared to how the Texans fared.

Ball rolls forward, pins fall down

Just like opponents versus the Texans defense. You won’t notice much of a difference, I’m sure.

by riversmccown on Nov 1, 2010 4:51 PM CDT up reply actions  

Not enough pins fell down

After that, I’m not sure what would be worse….

ooh tough call

to quote Al Bundy:

“I love beer, I love bowling… let’s not cheapen the meaning of the word.”

Would adding “the Texans” to that list cheapen the word? Tough to say.

by grungedave on Nov 1, 2010 5:33 PM CDT up reply actions  

what a difference a winning culture creates

Not that you don’t make valid points, but its a striking contrast to read the Colts blogger talk about how the Colts will overcome some key injuries and correct all their mistakes from the past to win, while our guy uses the whole interview trashing his team lol. Put down the razor its going to be ok.
