Forgot about Peek. He looked really good as well. I think his Escalade is still running...

The O-Line played very well, and they were without Wiegert. He played very well last season, and imagine how we'll look with him back in there between Wade and McKinney with Davis in the backfield. Can't wait for Sept. 12th.

How bout Chad Stanley getting called for a facemask! I guess punters have to find ways to get out their frustrations as much as the other guys. Also, anyone see Tony Hollings accidentally stiff arm one of our own guys who got in his way? That was classic!

Yeah the ref messed up the number on that call. It was #27 Anderson who was guilty of the facemask. I didn't see the stiffarm of a fellow Texan by Hollings, but I did see him run over Starling when he got in his way. Knocked Starling down, and got another 4 yards or so. Looked as if Starling was playing D for the Boys instead of playing O for the Texans.

Yeah that is to which i am referring. My entire section laughed about that for a good half quarter. I wonder if Starling did something to make Hollings mad? lol.

Even More Pics from the game. This time from Yahoo Sports.

I really like the "ACE" formation (HB FB 2TE 2WR) on 1st and 2nd down. Lets them play some smashmouth football and really helps set up the play action. The completion to Bruener was set up by Hollings run earlier. I thought Carr did a good job of selling the fake.

Are you sure there's a FB in that package? Add the QB and the 5OL and you end up with 12 players on the field. I believe there is just a single back, the HB, and the 2 TEs and 2 WRs.

I must say they did very well out of that formation. Seemed to be very successful running and throwing it. I believe that was the one Bruener had his 27 yard catch, and gave a lift to Hunter of the Cowboys.

HA! Yes that would make a powerful formation if we could get away with it! You're right, there was no FB in that set.

Yeah, thats the play. I liked it when Roy Willams went Jeff Van Gundy vs. Alonzo Mourning and took a two yard ride on Bruener's ankle before being left in the dust.

What I got from last night's game ...

Hollings and Robinson are really speedy!!
And David Carr needs a haircut! ..

TexanExile · 08-15-2004

Can't wait to see the tape of this whole game on monday...NFL Network tape-delays Texan preseason games until Monday mid-morning. The highlights were impressive. One side note: WAY TO GO, ROOKIES. But dang, Hollings...such talent, but could you please stop spraying your hands with Pam before you get into the game???

I hope he remembers what happened to Stacey Mack after he developed a case of the butterfingers.

Oh, and yes, I did say that I didn't care about the results of a preseason game. I see now that I was lying. It may be preseason, but it's STILL a little whuppin' for the pokes. That's never a bad thing!

To be more specific, it's at noon on Monday.

for all of those of you lucky enough to live in Houston area and not have to watch Dallas stations, however you didn't get to see lemonface jones as he had to talk about the game at halftime. Even better was seeing him try and find something good to say about Cowboys, I would have offered him the bon mot....well at least this half of game is over.....

We looked awesome both 1st teams was impressed when 2nd stringers got out and made Cowboys go 3 and out, so think we are gelling like magellan (OUCH)

I think as long as we stay injury free this preseason and start season healthy and stay healthy we are going to suprise a lot of NFL knowitalls

Go Texans...sure not realistic but wouldn't it be fun year after we host Super Bowl to go to Jacksonville's stadium and play for all the marbles
