Open Gameday Thread--Houston v. Tennessee

Brb_tiny by Tim on in News Comment 239 comments

Today, your Houston Texans are in Nashville once again to meet up with the Titans of Tennessee.  Will LP Field be the site of yet another Texans turnaround?  Or will the Almighty permit Bud Adams to once again crush the hopes and dreams of the Houston faithful?  If the latter happens, I'm pretty sure I'm headed to jail.

Leave your pre-game, in-game, and post-game views and rants in the Comments below.  GO TEXANS!

Houston Texans: Wild Card 2007!

by 5stringJeff on Dec 2, 2007 11:20 AM CST reply actions   0 recs

And now, some quick QB Stats
Matt Schaub: 189/284 (66.5%) for 2207 yards, 9 TDs, 9 INTs, 87.3 season rating

Vince Young: 162/264 (61.4%) for 1663 yards, 5 TDs, 13 INTs, 65.3 season rating

Clearly, the JUGEERNAUT (apologies to MDC) has the better passing QB.

That was AJ.
OD got tackled in the field of play and held the ball.

More importantly, Dayne is beating Tennessee like they stole his candy.

he was still on the ground when they came back from commercial and he had people helping him to the lockerroom.  I'm guessing he won't be back.

As per Wikipedia
If it's sprained, it's just treated via drugs and some time off.  Maybe 2-4 weeks.

If it's separated, 6 weeks minimum.  So he might be back for Super Bowl XLII.

FRED
Redeems himself a little.

by MDC on Dec 2, 2007 2:44 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

Just a little?
Ware likes him.  "Nice job for a rookie."  He's been saying things like that all day.   Even on that td, Bennett was apparently in the right place;  VY just threw it "perfectly."

by HtownJuggernaut on Dec 2, 2007 2:45 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Next Year
Dunta and Fred Bennett.  That's a pretty good tandem at CB.

Only a little
because I am not in a giving mood.  He can take up any difference in the redemption received and the redemption deserved with Jacoby Jones.

by MDC on Dec 2, 2007 2:47 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

But
has he looked good so far?  Strong tackles, tight coverage, etc.?  I only get what Ware decides to tell me.  

by HtownJuggernaut on Dec 2, 2007 2:48 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

Oh
Yeah, he's looked good.  I wouldn't say he was in perfect position for the Williams TD, though, if only because he didn't look past and he kind of ran past the ball.  

Otherwise, he's looked really solid.

by MDC on Dec 2, 2007 2:49 PM CST up reply actions   0 recs

OH HELL YEAH
Pick by Fred Bennett!

I know it's 28-17, but
14 interceptions does not a good Qb make. No matter haow good of a "leader" he is.

Because God doesn't hate us enough.
Another o-line injury.  Studdard's come in.

I blame MDC and his prayers to pagan gods.  Jehov-h no like-y.  First Commandment and all.

by HtownJuggernaut on Dec 2, 2007 2:50 PM CST reply actions   0 recs

I haven't blasphemed in weeks.
And the injuries pre-dated my heathen prayers.  Surely this isn't my fault.

I blame Casserly.

Fair enough.
Sigh.  If we're ravaged by injuries one year, then it's just bad luck.  When it's every freaking year, I start to wonder.  

Who's the team trainer again?

Rush 3 = long gains.

Can't Rick Smith figure that out?
