Ok good to know because every snap he did that and I was thrown off by it. Figured I would have at least seen one flag for trying to draw the defense offsides but o well, just wanted confirmation if anyone else saw it and if it was fully legal.

Yeah it's meant to allow the Center to perform a long snap without looking at the QB through his legs. Supposed to prevent neck injuries

I'm so happy we whooped their a$$! I wold have been happy with a 10 point win, but layin' the smackdown on their candy a$$es made it just much more satisfying.

Nice solid win. Nice to see 2 Texan games in a row living here in Missouri.
Mark of a great team is rebounding after a tough loss.

[MEGA SWATT]

We should have dropped a Grant on these mo-fos

But 43 will work too !

So much for all the talk about how the Texans are pretenders because they really have not played anyone yet. If Baltimore is not a quality opponent, the who is?

The Texans are the real deal.

Man Texans do not play in the East Coast so they get ignored by Espn.

The only other "quality" team in the AFC is the Broncos & we beat them. Chicago is the only other team that looks like a bonafide Super Bowl contender, I can't wait for that game.

New England & Minnesota look to have some life, so we'll see.

Baltimore isn't even half the team they were last year. They are used to being a top three defensive team. Now they are near the bottom for the year (26th). Mind you, they were even sucking before the losses of Webb and Lewis. Bring on Buffalo, a team not much worse than the Ravens!

Yeah Ravens defense was getting punked even by the Chiefs. I still do not trust Flacco if I was a Raven fan.

If not Baltimore in the AFC, then who?

It appears that the Texans are hands-down the class of the AFC right now.

Steelers. The next best team would be the Broncos and we waxed them when Manning was just starting to get back into football.

The AFC definitely is weaker overall and the Texans sit atop that mountain.

Yet they are still winning games. They played the schedule they were given & are 5-2 including a win over New England.

If we "simply" beat them, I could see where you are coming from, but we rolled them. Offensively & defensively. Their offense was supposed to be where they hung their hat this year. Well, we shoved that hat where the sun don't shine. & yeah, their defense was bad, but after playing us, they are now in the Houston record books after allowing 43 points in the regular season.

Before this weekend, the Texans & the Ravens were the class of the AFC. Today, the Texans stand alone.
