Wherein Frank Bush Scoffs At More Criticism
Nothing concerns me more than complacency, especially when the suckiness is apparent to all but the man in charge. So join me after the jump as I continue to put our defense into some sort of context. It'll be a blast! Stats are contextual. I could tell you the Texans are giving up 400 passing...
With Apologies To "The Princess Bride": Gary Kubiak Is Vizzini
Lucas Oil Stadium. First offensive series of the game. Larry Coyer: All right. What will the Texans offense do? The battle of wits has begun. It ends when you, Gary Kubiak, through your offensive coordinator Rick Dennison, decide what plays to run, and we find out who is right... and who is...
Texans Defense: Who's To Blame?
It’s the bye week, and the Texans are 4-2. If you had told me that would be the case before the season started, I not only would have been ecstatic, but I would have expected the fans, bloggers and the team to be ecstatic as well. If you gauge the general mood of all those people though,...
Tape Study: Giants 34, Texans 10 -- Too Close (II)
"I guess there's only one thing left to do: Win the whole ****ing thing." -- Major League Although the Major League Indians had the slight advantage of being a .500 unit, watching the Texans defense fills me with with many sad emotions, and sad sports emotions always take me back to that...
The Morning After: A Rational Look At Yesterday, Eugene Wilson, & Frank Bush
After wins, I usually have done a write-up for the game's unsung hero, but this is not a glorious Monday morning. It's hard to immediately look at a loss rationally after your team completely lays an egg. The morning after? Well, that's the time to begin looking at the flaming pile of wreckage...
What I'd Like To See: The Secondary...For Once. Please?
So last week's post about Mario Williams bull-rushing Trent Williams wasn't totally a bust. I have a nice, small pile of credibility chips to play with right now. Eventually, I'm due for a miss, but I'm enjoying this run while I can. If that doesn't sound like a real Texans fan, then I don't know...
Unsung Heroes: Gary Kubiak and the Coaching Staff
Is everyone still basking in the goodness that is a season-opening win? It's definitely a different feeling around here compared to this time last year. The hope is these "different feelings" continue to happen over the course of the 2010 season among the Houston fanbase. This season is supposed to...
Fallacy: Pre-season Games Don't Matter, Unless...
We all recognize the pre-season is little more than a warm-up with teams playing their second and third teamers more than projected starters. Teams like the Indianapolis Dolts are infamous for having poor pre-seasons, especially their offense (Curtis Painter, anybody?). But there's a difference...
Tape Study: Houston Texans 20 @ New Orleans Saints 38--Beating The Bush
There are a lot of off-handed ways to cleverly make fun of Frank Bush, but I've done enough of that on this blog, so let me just be blunt: This game was a masterpiece of what happens when simplicity is breached. Now don't get me wrong, the defensive line was embarrassingly bad for the majority of...
Tape Study: How Did Frank Bush Try To Stop Peyton Manning?
No matter where you look, there is a healthy fascination with the Colts when it comes to Texans media coverage. In fact, AOL Fanhouse recently noted that it was a topic covered to an "unusual extent" during training camp. Part of this is an actual on-the-field fact that the Texans are 1-15 against...
