We definitely need to draft a #2 WR
Imagine if this year we kept Dunta and drafted Dez Bryant. We might be a playoff team.

If we do infact keep kubiak, the stipulation should be,

This team
Needs a Defensive cood, and CB coach who arent total freakin IDIOTS. We need our main D guys back like Demeco, Mario (fully healthy) and Barwin, then we need to make sure to get one of the top 3 CBs in the draft (Petersen, Prince or Jenkins) and sign Champ Bailey, also DROP Eugene Wilson like a 6 pound terd, and grab Jonathan Joseph. Keep Kubes for one more year, and put a raging fire under his ass
Fucking lost this game, 4th penalty already.
Wait, the ref is a basketball official? This game is FUCKING FIXED.
Whoo! Schaub!
7-8! That’s one helluva completion percentage.
4-yard check-downs on 3rd and 9… Welcome back, David Carr.
Not sure why its so difficult to understand
Do you expect our receivers to run 9 yards in the same time it take their blitzers to run 5? I guess he could have floated it up for grabs?

Why
would you bench a WR that’s playing against us? All season I’ve had a rotating WR spot for whoever was playing the Texans.
I didn't bench him
just havent played him since his injury. been using DJax, Andre Johnson, and Mike Wallace.
Why do I keep asking off on Sundays?
I know how its going to play out, but yet here I sit

I was in the camp of keepin kubiak for one more year with a better D-coordinator
But i may be gettin off that wagon here pretty soon

No Silver Lining
I was hoping we’d have a silver lining with this kind of a blowout against us, and possibly have McNair finally fire Kubes, but the chance of that is about as likely as our making the playoffs…
If kubiak stays,
Than I have some oceanfront property in Idaho to sell McNair.

Here, lets talk about something that matters.
Bill Cowher would be interested in three coaching positions if he decides to return to the NFL next season, according to ESPN.
Bill Cowher would be interested in coaching the Giants, Dolphins and Texans if he decides to return to the NFL next season.
Cowher, who led the Steelers to victory in Super Bowl 40, retired from the Steelers after the 2006 season. Most NFL observers, though, speculated that Cowher was simply taking a break from the rigors of being an NFL head coach and evetually would return to the sidelines.
Cowher was linked to the Giants job last year, but Tom Coughlin returned and has the Giants (9-4) on the brink of the playoffs.
The Texans (5-8) have been a disappointment again this year after entering the season with playoff expectations. Owner Bob McNair, though, has said in the past that he approves of the job Gary Kubiak is doing.
Miami is 7-6 under Tony Sparano this year, but is a long shot to make the playoffs. Sparano has a 25-20 career record with the Dolphins.
In Cowher’s 15 seasons at the helm, the Steelers won eight division titles, went to the playoffs 10 times, played in six AFC Championship games and made two Super Bowl appearances.
- Rivers McCown, From Mom's Basement | Twitter | SB Nation Houston | Battle Red Blog
Right now I'm in support of changing the head coach.
Haven’t worked out who I want to be the new one yet.

Funny thing.
Assuming we went with our usual 15 scripted plays, since passing the fifteen play mark, we’ve had gains of 15 and 18 yards.
Just the refs.
It’s league rules. Like, in a baseball game, when the manager has to turn in his line-up card at the beginning.
Right? Wait… That’s what the other owners told Bob McNair. Wait a minute… That mustachio’d referee that Kubiak handed the script to looked an awful lot like Jeff Fisher. Oh, for shame, sir!
Don't worry guys
All the other owners think the Texans are going in the right direction.
Good point
That’s frikin amazing!!

I need AF to rack up the points at least… the only kind of playoffs he’s experiencing is on our Fantasy teams!!!
the least we can do, is jsut give it to foster on every play (even if its 4th and 19)

Whether physical or based on the score, has not been much of a friend to our boy Schaub this year… aside from a few lucky games where it was more AJ than him

Ideal, no?
Instead of working 100-hour weeks trying to whip a bunch of incompetent players into shape. I don’t know why anybody wants to be an NFL coach.
Of all the great half time adjustments we seem capable of making
Why the hell aren’t we able to make in-game adjustments instead??

Doin stuff so nasty that you have to do it twice to confirm the level of nasty!!

How was that a good timeout?

The Texans better run the hurry up
So that they can get the ball down into the red zone before Kubiak flubs the clock in the final 30 seconds.

Best-case scenario: missed field-goal.
Worst-case scenario: pick six.
Likely scenario: Three-and-out with 26 seconds burned off the clock, then a punt leading to a Titans field-goal.
Sounds about right.
