Chris Croker dropped INT was MASSIVE.
Than as an additional insult was embarrassed was on the wrong end of Foster’s TD run.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.
Deserves an Offensive game ball
Bengals safety Chris Crocker had a chance to tie the game in the third quarter, but an interception bounced off his hands. It would have likely been a touchdown because only quarterback T.J. Yates stood between Crocker and the end zone. Three plays later, Crocker failed to provide help for a faked-out Adam Jones on a 40-yard touchdown pass to Andre Johnson that put the Bengals behind 24-10. In the fourth quarter, Crocker didn’t push Arian Foster out of bounds on a fourth-quarter touchdown run
Division Champion Houston Texans
Hi My name is Jack, why don't you help me off?
And Crocker got abused by Arian on that 5 yd catch/5 yd YAC in the third right before Dre's touchdown.
And then Foster gets up and just laughs in his face. It was awesome.

Your a class act football fan. And just so you know, I will be rooting hardcore for the Broncos tomorrow as well.. The Broncos are my 2nd favorite team after the Texans, I have lots of family in Denver and recently lived there for 1 year (the year they started 6-0.. I think its crazy from 6-0 to 8-8 missed playoffs, then a couple years later from 1-4 to 8-8 and made playoffs.. nuts!)
My dream is Texans vs Broncos in the AFC Championship, every year! (but of course that ends with Texans winning, you understand :-P )
I'm happy for you guys, it's good to see the Texans finally making some real noise

I wanted you guys to lose. As a organization congrats on not only winning the division, making your first playoff appearance, and winning your first playoff game. I have no doubt you guys will skid by the Ravens. Hopefully, there will be a true rivalry between the Colts and Texans for years to come.

Thanks for the props
I like our rivalry with Cincy right now though. Two teams that are the future of the AFC, not over the hill has beens on the decline, ie Pitt, B-more, and Indy.

Thanks for the backdoor diss with no offense taking.
Although, I suppose our team has not been making grand improvements but possibly with Luck and a couple of years we would be back in the race unless we decide to stick with a HOF
{ ZuKeO}
lol
With Luck and your core vets returning we could have a nice little rivalry going, but there are a lot of factors to Indy’s progress. new GM, new VP, maybe new coach, Manning’s health, Luck’s growth…etc. I would like the chance to beat a healthy Manning though.
by TexasOilman84 on Jan 7, 2012 7:45 PM CST up reply actions
Yeah,
Although, I’m not into Luck = FHOF as other fans are I think with the direction we have made keeping Manning or most of our core players who are aging is unwise for long-term. We have some people to build around such as Pat Angerer ( Definitely needs to get more sacks), Pierre Garcon who is improving yet is not the dominant WR AJ is although he has more yards obviosuly due to AJ’s injury, and possibly Luck and Drake Nevis with the 2 rookie lineman we drafted last year in Castanzo and Ben.

on the real though, he’s of the “Denver zone blocking scheme.” I imagine he might be a hot commodity this offseason, maybe even Wade Phillips. On the flip side, would you be willing to part with a first rounder and a future 2nd rounder for Schaub??

wait...
u don’t wanna give up draft picks for Schaub??
ur probably right.
but if an insane deal came for him, I don’t see why we don’t consider it.
Hmm because this Texans team with Schaub is much much better than with Yates right now.
I love what he’s doing as a rookie but seriously when he’s hiding behind a great run game and an excellent defense and not asked to be THE guy of course he looks good.
Just ask Alex Smith.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.
we still haven't unleashed the wee-jay
any maybe because we don’t want to see too much, but we got a lead before half, and we used our dominant run game to shorten the game. Dennison’s run game combined with the best RB in the universe has helped this team run away with a lead.
The time’s we’ve needed TJ to score for us, ATL and at CIN he did. So he deserves the benefit of the doubt. Two almost pick sixes or not.
TJ must throw 30 times for us to win.
Shaub is OUR QB! Yates is our #2 to be "groomed" behind him
and used in emergencies.
there's something to be said
for teams that wish to play simplified run-first offenses. Yates has the mobility to avoid the costly mistakes that happens far too often with Schaub: forced fumbles, sacks, and the lack of threatening teams outside the pocket. Yes, our o-line and running backs have done fantastic, but TJ’s athleticism and ability to create outside the pocket and keep teams honest on play-action bootlegs is a HUGE reason our running attack is as potent as it is now.
TJ (as a rookie) has been a revelation. He fits perfectly in the offense, he doesn’t get scared nor does he crumble during big pressure moments, and his accuracy has improved dramatically since when he first started. He’s young, he’s made his share of mistakes, but I’m sold: this is the QB of our future. If you wanna keep Schaub for one more year, I say that should be the max: TJ is the future. I’m ready to embrace it even if nobody else is.
He was a 5th round pick!

Have I been repeating this or something? I can resist if it’s really that annoying. lol
hehe
Hydro always defends Schaub when I go after him wb.
I used to underestimate Schaub, but now I'm a believer.
I never knew how good his progressions were until I saw someone else try to do it.
Schaub gets a minimum of 2 years in my book...
Doin stuff so nasty that you have to do it twice to confirm the level of nasty!!
, and the lack of threatening teams outside the pocket.
Have you missed all the huge plays Schaub had on bootlegs this year? I know you like to overlook anything good he does and focus in on every negative play he has but come on.
but TJ’s athleticism and ability to create outside the pocket and keep teams honest on play-action bootlegs is a HUGE reason our running attack is as potent as it is now.
Explain how the run offense is “more potent” now with Yates than with Schaub. I see no difference. In fact it may be hindered a bit because teams know the Texans will try to protect Yates running the football.
TJ (as a rookie) has been a revelation. He fits perfectly in the offense, he doesn’t get scared nor does he crumble during big pressure moments, and his accuracy has improved dramatically since when he first started. He’s young, he’s made his share of mistakes, but I’m sold: this is the QB of our future. If you wanna keep Schaub for one more year, I say that should be the max: TJ is the future. I’m ready to embrace it even if nobody else is.
Much of that is to be determined. he wasn’t so hot late in the Panthers game or throughout the Colts game. Of course he fits the offense though. That’s why he was drafted his decision making is still pretty poor on some of his passes but that should improve with time. His accuracy comes and goes and there is definitely not some significant improvement from his first game to this game as you state when talking about it. He was off today on some of his passes and lucked out big time with that dropped INT.
I’m not saying i don’t think he’s the starter of the future but talking about trading Schaub is just ridiculous. Not surprised your saying that though since your biased against Schaub anyways. No need to act like Yates is just lighting it up because he’s not. He needs a lot of work before he’s on the level Schaub is right now with the Texans but he does show a lot more potential than some gave him credit for.
BTW
for teams that wish to play simplified run-first offenses
Texans run a balanced offense (like how the whole team is balanced) which is why the offense is so good. They run first now because Yates is a rookie and they want to reduce his exposure to opposing defenses SEE: 20 pass attempts today.

Excellent rebuttal
You saved me from having to type any of it. Anyone that doesn’t believe at this point that we would be a Super Bowl contender with Schaub at center right now is out of their minds.
T.J. has done well but the team is in the position it is because of #8. You put him back in the mix with a healthy Andre and we’re steam rolling right now.
I'm a man!! I'm forty!!
sure
but I’d disagree. I think Yates is keeping teams honest, he is capable of avoiding the sack and avoiding turning the ball over inside the pocket. I’m not “biased against Schaub,” I just think he’s not going to get any better, and knowing what we knew about him, I think it’s fair to want a more versatile qb (ala Yates.)
Plus, it’s not fair to reference Schaub’s success on the bootleg considering TJ played his first full game with Andre YESTERDAY. And what’d he do? He connected for a td as well. In previous weeks, TJ has shown the ability to hit Dreesen and Walter for solid 20 yard gains off of the bootleg as well. We’re running the ball more not just b/c Schaub isn’t playing, but also b/c Owen and Andre were hurt. Who is TJ going to throw deep to? Jacoby? We are a run-first team. This “balance” you speak of hinges on our run game, I’m sure you agree with that too. TJ has done his job to keep teams honest, and as a rookie he most definitely warrants serious consideration to be our future QB (I propose: after 1 year). Remember, this entire conversation began with the assumption that we could get a king’s ransom for Schaub (which we should be able to get.)
lol, I wonder how people would feel about TJ if we end up going to the superbowl.
Right now, TJ is not Schaub. With an off-season, who knows?
I think an open competition is warranted.
there ya go.
ur warming up to the idea too.
A whole lot of Schaub's bootlegs go to the same TEs that TJ throws to.
I’d argue they’re more of a factor than AJ.
And Schaub mastered the bootleg even during the many games that Dre was out.

and what's to say
TJ can’t with an offseason’s worth of work? He’s been doing rather well within the confines of our system. I think we’re glossing over him as an actual possibility going forward. We’re forgetting the fact that he’s a rookie and he’s going to improve insanely, not to mention that teams will trade away an entire draft to get Schaub. Factor in both of those situations, and you can’t possibly tell me that trading Schaub isn’t a serious option?
Nobody's glossing over him as the future.
We are saying right now, today, we are better with Schaub. That’s not debatable to me.

Two things:
I think I agree with you on TJ’s potential. I mean, that is pretty non-controversial, wouldn’t you say?
But TJ is not as good a qb as Schaub. I know you disagree on this but Schaub is an excellent qb by my lights. TJ has the potential to be as good, albeit in a different way.
Let’s assume for a moment that the front office would consider parting with Schaub (and let’s be honest here, I can’t see it happening. I mean, look how long they stuck with Frank Bush). It would have to be a sick deal to make it worth it, and I don’t think we’d ever get that kind of offer.
Just because the Cam Newtons and such are out there playing well doesn’t mean that every rookie qb is going to do that. Much like Sam Bradford, I suspect that a guy like Andy Dalton is going to regress in his second year. I think it is still a wise move to bring a qb along slowly. TJ has shown flashes, but it takes a lot of time to get familiar with an offense like ours.
I see no problem with keeping Yates around a few more years and letting him take over for Schaub then. Schaub still has a few more good years in him, and he’ll be better than Yates for much of that time. I don’t see the hurry.
OK, that’s more than two things. Sorry.

Hi My name is Jack, why don't you help me off?
Superbowl victory only

If the team was to win the next two games
You wouldn’t be open to the idea? Schaub would command plenty in return.
This is for another day. Today tomorrow are all about celebration

Hi My name is Jack, why don't you help me off?
If Yates wins us the Superbowl
then they could consider trading Schaub.

no doubt.
We would have our QB of the future as well as build a solid base for our offensive and defensive line for years to come with what we’d get out of any deal involving Schaub. To dismiss it entirely is just not rational.
I would still feel better seeing Schaub start against Baltimore
Not to take anything away from Yates, who’s played great.

If Yates plays
It is a surprise win.
If Schaub plays it is an expected win
Division Champion Houston Texans
Hi My name is Jack, why don't you help me off?
oh ya
b/c Schaub has destroyed Baltimore in the past!! oh wait….
Here’s the deal, if there is a deal involving a 1st round pick and any combination of a 2nd and a 4th, I’d take it and not look back.
DONT forget Shaub!
hes a solid proven QB and IS our STARTER! Yates, even if he takes us to the superbowl (which will be behind out D and running game) would then be labeled #2 to be groomed behind Shaub/ just in case, and “QB of the future”
Yates over Leinhart for #2? Hell Yes. #1 over Shaub? noooo way not after less then a seasons worth of games.. but QB of the future.. yeah I could dig it.
that's fair.
1 year max for Schaub. That’s what I say. TJ is clearly #2 next year if Schaub returns. But, we also have to consider Schaub’s peak value. Oakland traded for a 1st round pick to get Palmer, that MUST be our return on Schaub or else it’s useless to think of trading him. If we retain Schaub, it should only be to obtain maximum value in preparation of trading him.
we're not in the desperate straits that Oakland was in
please don’t go expecting or hoping for that kind of trade or trade value from the Texans.
I DID feel very bad for Schaub when the announcer called him Shoob.
It was like /facepalm. The man gets no respect.

^agreed.
if nobody comes on our door with an insane trade offer :)
He's a great guy
Obviously it helps having Kubes (I believe Kubes calls plays most of the time). While I would love for him to stay, I do think he would fit very well with y’all. Assuming he were to bring the Shanahan/Kubiak offense to Miami, if y’all could find a good QB and some TEs, he would do good things.
I'm surprised to hear that his name even came up.
He’d done a good job, but I think most people will tell you our offense comes from Kubiak first and foremost. I haven’t seen much to even say whether he would be a good HC or not. It would be a dice roll I think. He could do well or fall flat on his face, neither would surprise me.

Anyone would be better than Mularkey,
whom I’ve seen rumored as your prospective HC.
Just keep your greasy hands off of Wade!
When I saw the news on Mularkey, I thought it was a complete joke. I would not like that hire at all
And don’t worry about Wade, I think Mike Nolan’s done a good enough job during the last 9 games of the season to keep his job.

absolutly
cant have him! :-P OR WADE!!!
but honesly its Kubiak who does the offense for the most part I believe.. sometimes questionabe calls, but always a solid Offensive…. we lost our OC and Dennison replaced him and there was still solid Offense.. not to say Dennison isnt a big part – he is good. And Kubiak just cant do good with D, thus my EXTREME hopes that Wade Philips stays
Jeff Fisher would be a steal for you... If you can get him....

I live right between Houston and Galveston (bout 20 minutes from downtown, more with traffic) and I went to walmart to get some beer and food for the game – couldnt look in any direction or down an aisle without seeing someone in Texans gear! (myself included)

Mission accomplished!!!!
Enjoy tonight. Tomorrow – let’s start thinking about holding Ray Rice to 7 carries and 14 yards.
Let’s sack Flacco a bunch and get some picks.
Let’s maintain intensity.
GO TEXANS!!!!
"And now", said Max, "let the wild rumpus start!"
From ESPN
The Texans’ defense rushed four or fewer pass rushers on 37 of Andy Dalton’s 47 dropbacks on Saturday, and Dalton struggled throwing into coverage. Houston had three interceptions and sacked Dalton a season-high three times. Houston had sent extra rushers after Dalton on 18 of 30 dropbacks in their regular season meeting, and Dalton completed 11 of 17 passes for 141 yards and his only touchdown. – Dalton was 9 of 10 against such pressure prior to his pick-six to J.J. Watt at the end of the second quarter. Including the pick, Dalton went 12 of his next 23, with three interceptions. – The Texans used five or more pass rushers on 50.0 percent of opponent dropbacks in the regular season, the second-highest rate in the NFL. The 21.3 blitz rate Saturday was the Texans’ lowest of the season.
Tricky, Wade, tricky. I really think we have two of the better play callers in the league.

I'm on about my twelfth helping of the ol' Wade-ade
by JBal on Jan 7, 2012 8:57 PM CST via Android app up reply actions
T.J. Yates was 0 for 6 with a sack when facing five or more pass rushers in the first half Saturday but found his form in the second half. Yates went 3 for 4 against such pressure, averaging 21.3 yards per completion, including 40-yard touchdown pass to Andre Johnson.
Again, our coaches made the needed adjustments.
I was worried in the first half
The offense looked weak.
Until Mega-Watt made his pick six, the d didn’t look that great.
One other thing to note – Dalton was 24 for 42 I think. 42 attempts. They abandoned the run early – because it was doing nothing.
Kick ass Texans. More of the same next week.
"And now", said Max, "let the wild rumpus start!"

Nah Vikings have Ponder and Webb.
Yates is okay but I haven’t seen anything to tell me he’s going to be a great franchise QB yet. He didn’t screw up today and made some nice throws but he hid behind the defense and Foster today. Next week he’ll have to do more for a Texans win so we’ll see. I like his poise though. Definitely has a starters poise.

yes, he did
but he did: b/c he COULD. What else do u expect him to do? A potent running game is always going to be leaned on heavily in the playoffs, and you can’t take away Yates’s big plays b/c the defense played well.
Yates most definitely has the ability to run this offense in the future. I say, we keep Schaub for a year, develop TJ and get maximum yield for Schaub.
TJ TJ TJ TJ TJ TJ TJ TJ TJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There, now that I got this outta my system. I’ll save the rest for the post season ;)
Only QB we will keep will be Delhomme #3 - behind Schaub and Yates...
Lienart. JJones and Walter will be sent packin… I say we get Reggie Wayne if we can get him cheap…Lestar Jean will return next season as a #3.
Doin stuff so nasty that you have to do it twice to confirm the level of nasty!!
possibly.
However, I think the Texans will invest a high draft pick on a wr. U really think Walter’s gone? That guy is a huge reason for sealing our edge blocks in our run game. JJones: peace.

I highly doubt they send JJ packing.
I doubt the coaches see any reason to let him go especially after that new contract he got.
Yeah he’s only going to be an average QB but he’s become an excellent run blocker for this team (that’s huge because all skill players are expected to be at least adequate run blockers) and a solid punt returner.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.
Yes and no
Lienart is gone. JJones is uner contract – new one last year. He’s not going anywhere. KW may go somewhere else.
We are pretty deep at WR though. Lestar Jean and Jeff Mahel are in the wings. I’d like to see us pick up an OL guy though – guard or a tackle. I guess we get Studdard back next year, but seems like we need more depth up front. Also – as has been said many times before – Dump KJax and find a better corner to split time with Allen.
"And now", said Max, "let the wild rumpus start!"
Studdard?
I’m not sure the Texans are keeping that guy. I’d be happy with a #2 wr in the 1st round. Also, for those of us who want us to draft “giant nose tackles” early….are we just going to pretend that Jamison, Mitchell, and Cody aren’t doing freaking amazing? Those guys find ways to make plays that most overweight dlinemen don’t.
I could see the Texans parting with KJax, but to be fair to him, he played very well yesterday. And, the Texans drafted Brandon Harris last year, so I’d like to see what he does as CB#2. I wouldn’t mind moving Brice as the #2, but I think he’s too valuable as our slot corner, so maybe Harris moves to the outside? Iono. Allen’s been respectable, we have to admit this. Either way, this draft is a great opportunity for us to get some valuable depth…heck, maybe even at the linebacker position if Sharpton’s injury is too serious.
We have Roc Carmichael at CB, too.
A lot of people were excited about him.
He will be one of the league's better backups

Last night we saw TJ develop
On one play he missed the read of a rusher on the right and took a sack. A few plays later they stacked two on the left and he nailed a quick release for a big gain.
I watched him throw during pre-game warm up and he tossed a 70-80 yard bomb down the field (hard to gauge exactly, but he was standing near the 20 and it was caught inside the 5). Schaub doesn’t have that kind of arm strength. If TJ continues to progress, I think he’ll be battling for the starting job next year.
We still have Leinart on contract for another year. I think the original 3 will stay unless we trade Leinart, but I can’t see anyone trading for him when he had such limited game time to display his ability.
At this point, my money is on TJ being the future QB of this franchise. And if (a BIG if) that’s the reality of it, then there’s no reason to hold that development off and regress the passing game by putting Schaub back in as the starter. I’m no Schaub hater, but his accuracy, arm strength and legs are a downgrade from TJ. The only thing he has more of is experience and ability to read defenses.

I would still rather sit with Schaub for at least one more year.
2 years is better.
.................
We are at a crossroads.
Next year is the last of Schaub’s contract.

That, I did not know.
That makes it a bit trickier then. Maybe we might get rid of him.
I just don’t want to put all my eggs in one basket.

He can hit shoelaces
Better than any QB in the league

Those shoelace shots drive me insane, and were getting worse this season than last

WTF is with that comma in there?
To clarify:
Schaub more accurate short.
Yates more accurate deep.
WOOOO HOOOOO!!!!
I got MeMongo on my side. Well said brutha. TJ 2012!!!

Eventually I’ll buy a #80, but I want a signed version to mount and display in the gameroom. Too sacred to actually wear such a thing!

From our first win, in our first game ever over the Cowgirls, to our first playoff win in our first playoff game ever over the Bengals, a decade later, I have been a diehard Texans fan. To see this FINALY happen today is just amazing. I LOVE it! I havent been this happy in a long time. Thank you Texans players, staff, and fans. I will never forget this moment in our teams history!
Win or Lose, with the Good , Bad, Ugly, and Amazing, I am a true fan for life O-16 or 16-O, Im a Texans fan till they tag the toe!
They were F'd for not putting them both in the pro bowl....
Doin stuff so nasty that you have to do it twice to confirm the level of nasty!!
One thing i liked that alot probably didn't
JJo’s pick instead of batting a pass down. After the Q-tip i always want the defender to cath the ball if it is an option.
Texas. Gods favorite country.

Yeah, that's what my dad was saying
I liked it, and I honestly think JJo did it just to shove it in the Bengals face.
My thoughts are like Brian Cushing on the field: Everywhere.
absolutely
my buddy (a cowboys fan who roots for the texans) was screamin, “bat the fucking ball down!” to which I asked, “did you see the jax game last year?” “catch the ball.”

completely agreed.
we were up by 14 at that point newayz. Just grab the pick and secure the ball. No need to take chances at that point.
Terrific job Texans!!
So proud, words are hard to give. Much bragging rights going into school this coming week.
The best thing?
’Dre catching a TD pass.
Gawd, that man is awesome. I’m so glad he made a big play in the game.
Is pacman's jock still lying on the 25 yard line?
Because ’Dre juked him out of it.
Awesome!!!!!!
"And now", said Max, "let the wild rumpus start!"
My voice is lost.
My heart is swelling with pride.
But, I’m already looking for revenge against B-More.
Today was amazing…best sporting event…ever.

Someone forgot to tell Yates he was supposed to lose cause he was a 3rd string rookie.
Drafted in the 5th round.
Texas. Gods favorite country.

I'm most definitely hoping that'll be the case
That means Pittsburgh’s gotta come to our house for the AFC Title game.
"Toughest division in football"
As claimed by some. Hard to argue against that to so I’d take a road like that. Currently 4-1 against the AFCN.
Prediction: 11-5 AFC South champions.
I'll take that 1 loss if we get the next one against them
I mean I think its a fair trade.

The shit talking from the Ravens has started up already
I don’t think I can handle a whole week of “Our D is better. We beat you last time. We have home field. We lost to sucky teams.” Well hopefully that last one works in our favor.
Typical Troll
Always fun to look at kids, but never feed them.
Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, son.
Awesome Job Texans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now enjoy yourselves tonight, take a day off tomorrow, and then back to work on Monday for the freaking Ravens. Man, I would have rather played the Patriots, but if Arian runs the way he did today, Houston should pull out the victory. Man, it was a long wait, but it does feel awesome.
had to add one more comment
