Texans v Jagoffs

Ok, today is the most spectacular football weather imaginable, and the fucking roof is closed?  I want my share of that $180MM back, dammit.

Defense getting pantsed. Worst thing they could have done was knock Gabbert out. Henne can actually play quarterback.

They did the same thing earlier in the year against the Titans, knocked out a terrible starter to make way for a clearly better backup.

Just saw some pics on facebook from friends at the game.  Lots of empty seats for an 8-1 team.

I don't live near Houston, but is there really such tepid interest in this team?  I know the Jaguars are not a marquee opponent, but still. You only get to see the home team a relatively small number of times in the NFL.

People staying home to watch the Cowboys piss themselves against the Browns?

You have to take the field goal there. No question. Take the points and get to within one score.

I no longer blame Kareem Jackson. He simply doesn't have the skill to play cornerback in the NFL. Not even a little. The coaches keep putting him out there and he's just overwhelmed by this level of play. He is what he is. The Texans, however, should be shot for continuing to run him out there.

Wasted two minutes inside the five yard line. Now you've got only one shot left to make a stop and tie the game. And the Texans defense has been no match for the Jags' offense.

Listened to OT in the car on the way home from a kids birthday party.  Frankly I don't even want to know how it ended up there, but I do know we won the damn game, and here's hoping next week contains less dick stomping.

Because we correctly call out the dick stepping and incompetence?  You're right, we're not blind cheerleaders. We actually know  more than most about the game, so yeah, we likely wouldn't fit in on most football boards.

I just love the ridiculous expectations here.  Anything other than a 40-0 blowout is "dick stepping".  A 16 game NFL schedule should be a cake walk.

If you think getting embarrassed at home by the worst team in the league without their best player acceptable, then I don't want you a fan of my team.

Anyone know what was going on with J-Jo?  Looked like Ball was in there for him late in the game.

Like what, any specific incident or just overall?

No one ever said that, you're just being hyperbolic.
Everyone's talking, few of them know
The rest are pretending, they put on a show
And if there's a message I guess this is it
Truth isn't easy, the easy part's shit

Looked like Ball was in for Jackson, who just got abused all day long.

Why were you watching Joseph's groin?

Unfortunately, wasn't watching at all - was on a flight to San Francisco.

ETA: And looks like it's a hamstring, must have groin on the brain

Meanwhile, Agent Jones returned another fucking punt for a TD, for the key score in the Ravens' 13-10 win over the Steelers.

He is pissing me off more since he left the Texans, and he used to really piss me off as a Texan.

Memory may be failing me, but Jones was a competent return man last year *during the regular season*.  The playoffs (specifically against the Ravens) were a different story.

Your memory is falling you. If he caught the ball, his decision making was laborious and, typically, wrong.  For Baltimore, he's been a solid receiver and has run back multiple kicks for TDs*.


* In 5 years as a Texan, he had 4 run-backs for a TD.  In 10 games for the Ravens, he has three.

Different special teams.  Obviously, the Ravens do a better job setting up blocks.

Baltimore likely has better special teams coaching than the Texans do.  As far as Jones, he has always sucked as a receiver, but last year (and last year alone) I thought returns were solid.  Having reviewed 2011 punt return stats, he was 18th.  So worse than middle of the pack.  I think I was just impressed that he didn't fumble the ball a lot.

So was this the first time in NFL history that a team has scored twice in overtime?

Yes.  I have to admit that I was a bit confused at first when Kubiak wasn't being ol' conservative Gary on the Jags side of the field on the first OT drive.
