Countdown To Kickoff: Houston Texans v. Oakland Raiders

Normally when Countdown To Kickoff posts, you've got four (4) hours until the Houston Texans start their game. Today, however, CTK is posting a cool seven hours and twenty-five minutes before the Texans take on the Oakland Raiders. Theoretically, that means you have nearly the equivalent of a full work day to get things accomplished before the Texans play and you shut down every other aspect of your life. Despite that scheduling quirk, you and I both know there's very little chance of you doing anything but thinking and talking about football, so why not do it among Texans fans here?

While we'll have to wait about three hours and twenty-five minutes longer than usual for Houston Texans football on this fall Sunday, tis gameday. Talk about anything related to the Texans or Raiders here. This the place for you to engage in the free exchange of ideas about the Texans, the Raiders, what you hope to see this afternoon, your early estimation of what your 2014 Houston Texans will be, or whatever else is on your mind as we wait to see if the Texans will start 2-0. Just like they did last year!

The first open thread for Texans-Raiders will post at 3:10 p.m. CDT. Until then, share your thoughts, hopes, dreams, and nightmares for Texans-Raiders and/or the Texans' 2014 season here.
