Put your name on it: Colts vs Texans final score


Ok I've been thinking of this for a while and while I had a whole clever story that I was going to set down about having a magic crystal ball and having someone cross my palm with Texans tickets ;-).

I just want to get this started while it's still timely. I might wish I had been all creative like tehGrindCrusher did with this epic article about Mario Williams' offseason . Or creative like this other article by tehGrindCrusher about Galacticus and tea leaves  But reading this welcome thread for the nomad Colts fans wore me out ;-) (curse you Jordann).  

And I'm not sure if pointing to two of his articles makes me a TGC fangirl but they are some of the most creative and memorable submissions to Battle Red Blog. I remember someone did a clever story about Thor trying to get the TE job from Owen Daniels? That was a good one too just can't remember what the title might have been.

Soo I'll post my prediction after the jump

Star-divide

Week 1:

Final Score:  Colts 31 Texans 49

I predict that we win the coin toss and Matt Schaub only has 2 interceptions whereas Peyton gets 4 interceptions (hey it's MY fiction/prediction)

Bottom line I expect the Texans to FINALLY beat the colts after a LONG, arduous, torturesome, drought against the Colts .. victory will be ours at last!

And to be fair, I'll post my prediction in a comment too so that there is no question that it wasn't rigged after the fact when the Texans actually do win by so many points. =D  (why post in comment section? b/c that can't be edited after the fact --see? I got this all figured out)

Maybe y'all will do better than me with your predictions. Polish up your crystal balls !

Rev it up, Battle Red!

WEEK 1

Texans – 34
Clots – 24

Looking by my measurements that you were right on =)

DilloTex was damn close with 35-24 but you got it on this thread =).

Now we need to check Tim’s useless predictions to make sure no one else on BRB got it.

hehe nice crystal ball you got going =)

by BattleRedFan on Sep 12, 2010 3:46 PM CDT up reply actions  

I'll take it but would much rather be perfect

with my season prediction of 13-3. Oh and I’ve been wondering when was the last time the CLOTS were in last place in the division BY THEMSELVES! Hell yeah – go Texans – playoff bound!!!

by Mikus318 on Sep 13, 2010 12:25 AM CDT up reply actions  

here we go

this was the thread I wanted to check

and maybe another pair of eyes can see it but I don’t see anyone else getting the score exactly like you did =D

congrats!

a gooooood staaaaart.

offense gets close in the first half, but foster answers the call in the 2nd. defense plays well, K-Jax gets his first NFL int courtesy of mistah mahn-eengh. victory formation to close it out… texans win, 23-13.

Q: If losses by fewer than 7 points are 3 times more likely than blowout losses to cause Tim to get blindingly drunk, do you take the over or the under on the number of Scott appearances as 3.5?

If the Texans don’t score TD in the red zone..they’re toast…I’m for one tired of the “track meet” between the 20’s…The play calling in the red zone sucks…what is with the east-west offense in the red zone?…we have the best receiver in the league and we take him out of the game……The Texans need to attack the end zone…draw an interference call….run it “up the gut”…..damn, I tired of the field goals in the red zone…the play calling,again sucks

Welcome to Battle Red Blog =)

Your name seems new here from my perspective but I really like your points about the “track meet” between the 20s. (but if you’re not new here then welcome back!)

Houston Wins a Close Game

Houston 273, Colts 4. Schaub has a pedestrian 29 TD’s. Foster has 9 rushing TDs on 2000 Yards and Ice Kareem gets a Pick6 on Painter after the Colts give up. oh yea… Travis Johnson gets seats behind the Colts Bench and flashes Manning during Pregame. Peetin goes blind. then explodes.

optional tie breaker should someone cheat and copy me: Painter Urinates himself on each of Mario’s 40 sacks.

Winning season... Check. Higher expectation bar... big Check.

No for the rest of the story:
35-33 comes down to Racker showing he is clutch and why we are all glad K Brown is gonzo.

2-0

Cushing flies OUT of the choppa and grabs manning’s arm, ripping it off and flinging it 99 yards to his own endzone. While the arm is traveling, he does 5 commercials for cameras, the NFL, and a phone company and his 4-game BANNED! is lifted by a sobbing Goodell.
Manning is of course IR’d and retires from football to be CRUSHING’s full-time butler.

Texans 27-21

2 Texans scores from outside the Red Zone, 1 score inside, two failures in Red Zone, but we manage 2 field goals.

Manning gets pressured pretty hard and can only manage three TD passes. 2 sacks and 1 pick. Changes on our defense make for a good Houston 1st half. Colts adjustments to our newish D result in a nail biting 2nd half.

by smokehaus on Sep 9, 2010 5:17 PM CDT reply actions  

27 -13 TEXANS

The defense steps up. I would have given the Texans more but a real run game will keep us from putting up ridiculous numbers

It takes a big man to cry, but it takes an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

by Remember the Alamo on Sep 9, 2010 9:30 PM CDT via mobile reply actions  

Texans 31, Colts 27

It’s a nail biter. This time the Texans don’t blow a 4th quarter lead.

The euphoria in the stadium as the clock winds down surpasses the 19-10 win over Jerrah’s kids. Stadium PA announces that the parking lots will remain open until midnight. Party on.

Just saw Chris Berman's 2 minute drill

The Schwam predicted Colts 28 – Texans 23. I have always been a big fan of Berman’s but his picks are never that good. This gives me more confidence that the Texans will prevail on Sunday.
