Goal Sunday NO PENALTYS - Houston Texans Message Board & Forum

**Andrew6** · 10-11-2007

Texans need to set a goal to not allow Refs to penalize them. Play a nice clean game and destroy the Jags.

Maddict5 · 10-11-2007

especially holding penalties on big plays!! i think we filled our yearly quota for those v the fins

Allstar · 10-11-2007

Totally agree. I'd also like to add no turnovers as well.

alphajoker · 10-11-2007

Coming out with a "W" would be a nice goal too.

Brandon420tx · 10-11-2007

We might need to sit Pitts then ... just saying.

(Pitts is good but seems to always have at least one penalty a game)

TexanSam · 10-11-2007

I'm sure any team has a goal of getting zero penalties in a game, but it rarely happens. What I'm hoping is that if/when the Texans do get penalized they aren't drive killing flags. How many times last Sunday did a holding call stall a drive?

**Shaft75** · 10-11-2007

I hope we pull far enough ahead to where we can get a couple of late hits or roughing the qb's. Our defense needs to be nasty in opposing teams stadiums. Let em all know that we came in for a dog fight.

Leahmic223 · 10-11-2007

Really no turnovers, that is what has killed us the past 3 games, turnovers in the friggen red zone.

**Andrew6** · 10-11-2007

I was kinda hoping a Referee would read this and go well yeah we did call the texans on alot of BS calls maybe we should lighten up on them. Heres to wishfull thinking.

I think its Salaam that is the major concern here, isn't he the one responsible for the really hurtful penalties??

Luckily the Jags don't have premier edge rushers, unfortunately they do have some very good interior DL to worry about. That will be one of the games key matchups as always.

**Hardcore Texan** · 10-12-2007

Well it depends on the penalty really. On a couple of the Pitts' holding penalties they were a good decision, because if he hadn't held the defender Schaub would have gotten blown up. And if the hold is what sprung the play then it wasn't a good offensive play anyway.

The real killer to me is when a hold occurs away from the play or unneccesarily and would not have effected the advancement of the ball. That drives me freaking bezerk.

What we need is good blocking and pass protection, without the holding. But if an OL gets beat and they can hold the defender to stop a possible, sack, fumble, or injury on the QB then by all means take them to the ground and live to fight another down.

powerfuldragon · 10-12-2007

isn't that the goal every sunday?

**Double Barrel** · 10-12-2007

I'd rather no turnovers than no penalties. We seem to cough the ball up way too much (and we need to force some turnovers on D, too!).

I agree! IIRC, in our first two games we created a total of 7 TO's and won convincingly.

In our last three games I believe we've only created a total of 3 and have either lost or barely pulled out a win.

So IMO, it's obvious what we need to do.

SuperTexan · 10-14-2007

If we can avoid penalties and losing the turnover battle, I think we win. We have better coaching.

imatexan · 10-14-2007

There is the 1st one dangit!!!

The refs suck again today. Ridiculous calls against us all over the place.

TheIronDuke · 10-14-2007

Can someone make a list of crappy ref decisions in this game? Off the top of my head is the first JAX TD and the %$#%^ no delay of game call. WTF is up with the officiating today? Garbage.

J-Russ · 10-14-2007

When did Tim Donaghy became an NFL referee?
