I wouldn't mind seeing the jags win
If they win they will be so emotionally high after a Monday night win when they come to reliant

Hope Kubes will find ways to run on these Jags.
Terrence Knighton looks like 2 down linemen by himself.
I hope the Jaguars don't bring this defense against us next week.
Of course, they’ll still need to score.

they can do so via Special Teams.
A lot of this defense is helped by Ravens’ offense though. Flacco is not throwing on target. We have a much better receiving corps even without Andre compared to the Ravens.
I do wish we had a CB2 that can cover like either of their corners.
WHAT THE FUCK????
Is happening in Jacksonville?
How is this possible?

Last night's game was better.
Bring back Aaron Brooks! He's the only one who can save us from the evil that is Drew Brees!!
sure was. If a team is going to suck on a national stage, the least they can do is stand in front of a truck
and get splattered into particles for the spectators to gaze at in awe.
Watching two idiots tied at the wrist and using plastic spoons to fight with is just numbing….

no mention of something that’s only been done 30 times and scores 3 TD’s on top of that. If Shonn Green would have done that you wouldn’t hear the end of it. At least Dieon gave him some love on 21st and Prime, but only ranked him second behind Demarcus Murphy since he’s a Cowgal.

Come on 253 yards is impressive no matter who it is.
That was more yards rushing than Foster had total yards.

I can't believe we lost to the Ravens...
Or rather, I can’t believe we gave up more than six points to them. Flacco is atrocious. Why oh why didn’t we have Cushing sticking to Ray Rice? Daryl Smith isn’t giving him an inch, and Flacco just folds when he doesn’t have his check-down option.
Flacco's up and down.
He can have a good game or a bad one. And the Ravens play way better at home than on the road.
He had two passes that were pretty much prayer's in the game against us that his guys came down with.
But he’s been up and down a lot in his career.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.

Short week. IN our house. Our D is just as good.
Take away Jones Drew (especially if he has fumblelitis) and Mercedes. Pressure and sacks all day on Gabbert.
Our Offense is 15x better than Baltimore’s. Though they had a good day against us.
= Not really worried.
by YohannDookeyblue on Oct 24, 2011 9:57 PM CDT up reply actions
Jags have a grand total of 9 points.
Lets be real here the ravens offense has never been known to go on the road and light it up. Remember the road game in TENN earlier in the year? I give credit to the Jags defense because they have been good all year but that offense is just bad.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.
Boo
Jax scares the crap out of me. Given the way they’re playing now and their propensity for stepping up against us.
Of course it could be a simple matter of a good matchup for them. Football and MMA are a lot alike… It’s all about matchups.

Their front seven is scary-good.
Not great off the edges, but Knighton and Alualu collapse pockets as well as nearly anybody, and they have some beastly linebackers. Might be a tough day for Arian, and a battle of field position all day long. Not to mention Scobee… Disruptive DTs and a kicker who routinely hits 50+ yarders? Sounds very similar to a game we lost this season.

That section
is temporary seating for the Florida-Georgia game next week.
Games like this makes me think it is fixed
NFL looking to boost ratings by missing calls and making false ones…
Doin stuff so nasty that you have to do it twice to confirm the level of nasty!!
Why in the world would they fix a game for the Jags to beat the ravens?
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.
Right now the Prime time football Schedule sucks and a couple contain the Jags if they can get them back in it...
then ratings grow……
Doin stuff so nasty that you have to do it twice to confirm the level of nasty!!
lol nobody wants to watch the Jags struggle and claw their way to 9 points.
Seriously the whole “it’s fixed” thing gets irritating after awhile.
Prime time sucks because they put teams they thought would be good or better this year (like the Rams and Chiefs) and things didn’t pan out that way.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.

Ethan I remember what we talked about earlier during the summer .... Now do you believe
We now need another WR just in case?
Doin stuff so nasty that you have to do it twice to confirm the level of nasty!!
No we just need the run game to show up consistently. I said after both loses to the Raiders and Ravens the O-line and Foster didn’t show up and of course the offense struggled. This offense under Dennison revolves around the run game. You saw for yourself how good it is when they can actually run the ball. Texans want Schaub to throw less than 30 passes per game and before that Raiders game he was. This isn’t 2009. Don’t expect to see the Texans in spread throwing it 40 times a game.
I think it’s time to draft a new WR because the Dorin experiment failed and that #4 and #5 spot have been in flux for awhile. And the Texans need to start trying to find a new Andre since he is getting old.
But again as I said this offense revolves around the running game now. If Foster (and now Tate) can get going the offense will look like it did yesterday and last season.
Besides the TE is the second biggest target on this team after Andre.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.

Damn rangers. It’s not that I hate them. It’s that, as a diehard homer, I don’t want a team from NEAR dallas to win one before houston. Still bitter about the nolan ryan thing as well.

Actually 62,976 people in attendance
A lot of the empty seats on TV are temporary seating being put in for the Annual Georgia-Florida game next weekend.
Also the premium club seats, which don’t sell out, are in the middle of the field on the visitors side – which is right where the cameras always point.
Not nearly as good as the Attendance at Reliant for the Texans, but not nearly as bad as people make it out to be.
Good thing, Texans aren't going to underestimate the jags next week. Glad they won.
Could of been a trap game.

This ravens offense can disappear at times
Like the Titans or Jets game earlier this year.
Although credit the Jags defense for playing good football. Offense still sucks though.

Bring it Jacksonville.
Come down to Houston and try that shit on us.
You’re going to get trounced, this is our division. And we will show you Sunday.

LOL they are terrible on the road.
Only team they beat on the road so far is the rams……….. Kinda tempted to hope they be a wild card team so we can play them at home…
Still expect us to kill the Jags.
Beating the Ravens doesn’t mean much, honestly. Incredibly inconsistent team.

After seeing this game
Tell me how we lost to Baltimore again???
Murphy’s 20th Military Law:
If it’s stupid, but it works, it ain’t stupid
"Fuck em all. Go Texans."
C'mon now
Look Texan fans…don’t get ahead of yourself. You guys have beaten an oh-fer Miami, and and oh-fer Indianapolis. You also were rolled by the same Baltimore team that the Jaguars just beat.
The Jaguars just came off a brutal stretch that saw them play four of the top 10 defenses in the NFL, including the #1, #2, #3 defenses, back-to-back-to-back. They were in every game.
Bottom line is this. If the Jags can scratch out a win Houston, they are one game out of first with their brutal schedule behind them, and everything in front of them.
Besides…since when did you guys start “penciling in” wins?
Like I said, don’t get ahead of yourself.
Texans wasn't exactly rolled by Baltimore
Don’t let the final score fool you. It was a closer game than that.

Gotta distribute that shit. BWA HAHA…
Don't talk crap
I have been to a Texans game, and the place was half empty. Besides…remember when teams had to whisper in the huddle when they played the Oilers? There weren’t enough fans there to even make noise.
How quickly you forget the Oilers.
Was this so called Texans game played in "Tarpville" FL? It sure wasn't at Reliant.
I’ve never missed a home game at Reliant for the Texans and I assure you the stadium has always been sold out and at capacity, even during the miserable 2-14 season. Folks might bail later in the game like most sporting events, but during the first three quarters it is historically packed to the brim. Quite often folks in the club level are inside getting drunk in celebration or frustration, but they are still at the stadium.
Now back to the “half empty” point…
The pessimist says “half empty”
The optimist says “half full”
The NFL says “you guys have the wrong size stadium in Tarpsville so we are moving that team to LA”
Texans defense "Bayou Blitz" is gonna be in 'da backfield all day!
Awww that's cute...
Look at all the confidence this Jaguars fan has after his team beat a team that the Titans beat on home field.
If you REALLY think you’re going to come in to OUR house and take a win away from us, you’re more dilusional than the people who thought bringing a team in to Jacksonville are.
Well that is cute
Seeing how Houston LOST a team….
Houston didn't LOSE a team
We evicted an owner. Perhaps there’s a lesson in there for ya?

You keep telling yourself that.
I’ve never heard of a city having a goal of getting rid of an NFL team.
clearly you're not acquainted with Bud Adams
you’d want him to quit running and ruining YOUR team if he owned it too.
He was totally unreasonable. So we figured it was high time we cut our losses. We took our chances that the NFL would eventually let us have another NFL team and our gamble worked.
We are now blessed with an owner who is classy and knows how to delegate. I’m thankful that we got rid of Bud Adams and that we found Bob McNair -Total win for Houston. I did love the Oilers but Bud Adams was running the franchise into the ground. Or trying to run Houston taxpayers into the ground to suit his whims (do you remember how he over-ruled everyone - GM, and Head Coach to get Vince Young? That wasn’t just some aberration that’s how controlling he is). Either way, we’re better off without him as an NFL owner.

What a bunch of delusional morons you guys are.
For what it is worth, I came on here to keep it civil. You guys don’t have the class to do that. Congratulations.

Get that offense fixed then you can have a valid argument
Otherwise, beating one team that wasn’t the Titans means nothing.
also, a team the titans ALSO beat

The Jaguars just came off a brutal stretch that saw them play four of the top 10 defenses in the NFL, including the #1, #2, #3 defenses, back-to-back-to-back.
maybe because of the small sample size, which includes a game against the jaguars offense. That helps most defensive statistics.
my Z key can't take another free agent flurry
I can't believe home and road means that much
I hate the ravens for sucking it up so bad offensively on the road last night… Then again I always root for the underdog so it was nice to see the jags win even if it was in our division.
Swede that like the Houston Texans and Chelsea FC
As much fun as trolls are...
It’s Battlefield 3 day, so yeah ummm no glitter kitty fan(s) are raining on my parade. Any other BRB’ers got it on xbox?
