Damn, I wish Mario was playing in our last game.

Just re-watched the Carolina game...

We didn't have a chance without Mario in there.

Defensively, we played a pretty decent game. I still think our defense can win us a few games, a play-off game even.

It would help if our offense would stop turning over the ball. Vs Cincy, a fumble by that's at the goal line was the difference between scoring more than 20 & not.

This game, a red zone INT kept us from scoring 20. An early fumble by Foster spotted the Panthers 7 & another INT put them boys on Kirby in a tough situation.

Mario Demands a LT and TE two double him some of the time


Mario opens holes for everyone else

No one quite fears Barwin yet IMO

Exactly.

Witness Antonio Smith's production this year:

Week 1: sack
Week 2: sack
Week 3: sack
Week 4: sack
Week 5: .5 sack
Weeks-6-present: 0.

Hmmm, now what could have happened in week 5 to change things?

Must just be a coincidence.

No kidding.

I understand what Dale's getting at, but what he fails to account for is that the entire defense was also learning a NEW SYSTEM. You know, when you get more repetitions in a system you might *gasp* get better as time goes by.

Just Like A.J., Schaub & Foster...the Texans are a better weapon when he's on the field.
