Green Bay Packers @ Houston Texans. 7:20. 10/14. **Official GameDay Thread**

[mattieuk]

Now that wasn't anywhere near representative of how we should be playing.

Kubiak needs to sit them down, tell them to forget about the first half, pull up some embarrassing tweets on the locker room projector about the Texan's play and get JJ to fire them up.

Seriously want them to come out like they're pissed off that they've been embarrassed in front of the country. You know, like Green Bay have done so far tonight.

[Mr. Texan]

wade has saved kubiaks ass too many times to count.

it's about time kubiak did the same.

let's not act like the offense didn't give green bay a short field as well. not to mention the special teams penalty.

[bshep86]

Ha! I see what you did there Bob Costas...

when was the last time the texans tried to score with little time left in the first half?

ITS HIS WHOLE CONSERVATIVE PLAY NOT TO LOSE MENTALITY.

NO GUTS. NO GLORY.

KUbiak HAS NO KILLER INSTINCT.

This is riDONKulous.

Lol, I wouldn't be surprised.

That Posey penalty still looms large. As bad as this game has gone, it's likely a one score game (or better) without that play.

And people are bagging on Kubiak for that last series? Get a grip, folks. There's a lot of game left.

Before it's over, it will have been responsible for lots of players coming out of this game BANGed up.

It rarely seems like they both have good games at the same time. Depending on how teams are playing us either Foster's cutting ability seems to work or Tate's straight ahead battering ram style seems to work. Tonight we haven't seen enough of Tate to know he'd be on but I will say this. I've seen enough of Foster running into piles of players and slipping all over the place.

They need to give Tate a series and see if he can make it work.

We're playing lousy D and Kubiak is getting his turtle on at the same time. We're staring at our first loss of the year if they don't get it in gear in the second half.

Hopefully Schaub has one of those crazy comeback games in him from those years where we had no defense.

Also Packers are bringing pressure I am surprised we haven't seen a screen pass or two.

But yeah Wade looks to be playing it safe. Too many times I see only 4 guys rushing and if you give Rodgers any amount of time you are going to lose.

Barwin needs a break.

It doesn't matter.

These are not replacement refs.

KJ did not even touch a hair of the receiver.

Felix Baumgartner, daredevil, jumped from 24 miles above earth. Gary Kubiak cannot get his GD team ready for tonight's game. Contrast in styles.

Baumgartner jumped out face first and Kubiak is taking care of the face first landing.

If that is true, then every single stinking season ticket holder needs to write the Texans and ***** them out like crazy for this. Risking our players to possible injury by having a field that is completely torn up and dilapidated to save a few bucks (yes, $30k is a few bucks to Bob) then that is not a team I want to support.

Say what we want to about Jerry, but he would never let his field look like this.

Is there an ignore feature on TT? I rarely use those, but I will make an exception in your case.

Rushing the kitchen sink is what sunk Rodgers last game..

Yes, Kubiak is a conservative coach. We'll lose some games because of this, as well as WIN because of this. Get over it, he's not going to change overnight.

I took the final minutes just before the half and went and cleaned all three toilets in the house. Seriously, I did.

Their play inspired me to go scrub the toilets.

My wife asked me to scrub the fourth potty, and I said 'We don't got a fourth potty, honey." And she replied, as she walked away, "Yeah we do, your mouth."

Women.

[Wolf]

Holy crap! A touchback
