Houston Texans @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 11/13. 12 CT. CBS. **Official GameDay Thread**

Quote:

The Houston Texans sit atop the AFC South thanks to one of the most potent rushing attacks and stingiest defenses in the NFL.

That has the team hopeful it can make the playoffs for the first time in franchise history, but coach Gary Kubiak knows there’s still a long way to go.

Seeking a career-high seventh consecutive 100-yard effort from scrimmage, Arian Foster(notes) looks to help the visiting Texans to a team record-tying fourth straight win Sunday against the stumbling Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The Texans improved to 4-0 when giving up fewer than 90 rushing yards. They allowed a season-low 44 to the Browns.

That doesn’t bode well for Tampa Bay (4-4), which dropped to 0-4 when rushing for fewer than 100 during a 27-16 loss at New Orleans last weekend. The Buccaneers, who were looking forward to getting their ground game going with leading rusher LeGarrette Blount(notes) back following a two-game absence, fell behind early and were limited to 84 yards on the ground.

Blount, though, has averaged 100.0 rushing yards and 5.6 per carry over his last six home games dating to last season.

Things I want to see:

Again, set up the run, with the pass.

Look, people: We know we can run the ball with reckless abandon (love saying that...reckless abandon), but we have to soften TB up. Keep them uncomfortable all day. Clean, safe throws will suffice. Won't be much for deep balls (I don't think) with Tampa's 2 deep zone, so passes to the TEs should work today.

Stop LeGarrette the Goon.

That man is a beast, point blank. Gotta tackle well, no doubt. Must get a good push up front. Their interior line is definitely a far cry from what CLE showed us last week with a stud like Davin Joseph at Guard. Make sure he doesn't get loose, because with a head of steam, Blount is one tough brotha.

Jump on the Bucs, and keep them down.

This team will go for 60 minutes with absolutely ZERO quit in them. Ask the Vikings. You can get a 20+ point lead and they aren't dead by long shot. They'll get 1-2 key stops and jump right back into the game. Texans must step on their necks if given the opportunity.

Make Albert Haynesworth do the worm.

He's playing, so...

Let's keep doin' what we're doing. Take care of the ball, kick ass on D, and run it down their throats.

Do that, we get another W.

I hope you are right, but not holding my breath.

A chance to go 7-3 and a 4 game winning streak, count me in. Actually woke up in a good mood this morning. Hope I go to sleep in the same.

thank God; Silver, Golic, & Shefter are idiots. I hate it when the Texans are the unanimous choice.

Once again, the Texans are favored on the road. Vegas has the Texans -3.5

If we go 1 & oh today, we'll improve to 3-2 on the road.

Re: Houston Texans @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 11/13. 12 CT. CBS. **Official GameDay Thre

Refreshed and ready to go! I think Tate will have more rushing yards than Foster today, but they'll both go over 100 again.

I just went to thecaptainsdeck.net and that site has gone to nothing. I googled and found little activity. Is tbaybucs.com the place to be to lurk?

Try here.

That's the one that's the most active and where you'll find the Bucs die hards.

I appeciate that man! I was on the other one and saw an interesting little factoid...

Quote:

Fun fact: Bucs are 7-1 when Blount carries the ball 18 times or more.

Coincidence? Yeah probably, but it isn't like one of those "Team A is 7-1 when so-and-so rushes for 800 yards or more" factoids...lol.

For the record, I do not believe the Bucs are real competitiors. I think 2010 was the product of a weak schedule for them. I said as much last season. I don't believe in Freeman, I don't believe in Morris.

I think Blount is going to be a challenge, we'll see if he is for real today. I'm leaning towards NOT!!

We're going to beat the Bucs...... badly.

Re: Houston Texans @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 11/13. 12 CT. CBS. **Official GameDay Thre

To force the Bucs into passing......and thus neutralizing their ability to use of Blount as their main weapon, Schaub will need to put points up on the board more quickly with significant passing yards this week mixed with some shock and awe. A slow grinding tit for tat between Blount and our RBs only, is likely to keep the game too close for comfort.
