still not happy

Playoff win. Be happy. :)

This is the best game they've played in 6 weeks. The OL played better than they have recently, the defense played their best game in a long time, and the running game finally showed up like it was supposed to. Still some red zone issues to be worried about, but I'll worry about those tomorrow.

We settled for 4 FGs yes it sucks BUT i saw a better offense this week then i have seen in a while for the texans. The bengals defense is way better that the patriots defense.

AND our defense looked like it did early in the season. Everyone swarming to the ball, i saw intensity which we havent seen in a while.

Honestly ssing an improvment should be encouraging.

I dont see how anyone can pump sunshine out of this game... We beat the bengals in almost all phases of the game and we barely came out with the W. Plus we shouldnt have been playing this week anyway. Im not counting us out but we've got a long shot to beat NE.

I do like the fact that I can say 13-4 for the first time in my football sports life.

Hey man, shiit happens. NE and Denver aren't robots.

What was the score when we went to NE last time. Kicking fgs won't do it
New England is a better team.. Join the very large club! We are 12-4 and into the 2nd round of the playoffs. that's good... Unlikely, but we have a chance to go to the AFC championship game next week. Good news!

Agree, excellent.

Plus, so much for momentum dictating everything.

Suck it Andy Dalton and your parents, suck Bengals, suck it idiots on espn like Keshawn Martin, suck it bengals fans who came to houston, suck bengals fans in Ohio, suck it Obamahio, I mean Ohio.

Great point. BCS is gonna hammer us this week.

If nothing else, at least we're going to NE and not the Bengals. I think it's kind of cool we've beaten the Bengals two years in a row. It's not a lot, but it's something. And you can bet your ass Bengal fans know it. LOL

The Texans played very well except for two areas: Red Zone execution and penalties. Too many penalties have dogged this team for the last few weeks, too many times negating first downs on offense and giving the opponent a first down on a defensive penalty that would have otherwise led to 4th down.

Well I guess your happy with a wildcard win I though we wouldn't be playing this round.
Hell ****ing yeah I'm happy with a wild card win!! WHy wouldn't I be??

I hate the fact that we had to play a wild card game and lost home field advantage, but that's the situation we got ourselves in. They took care of business and have the opportunity to get their confidence back now. Will they? Who knows, but all that matters is winning the next game. Any other game before next week doesn't matter. Not even the one we just played. It's one game at a time, and there is no way I'd be upset after just winning a playoff game. We won the damn game. Be happy that we're at least in position to make noise in the playoffs instead of looking for reasons to be mad at this team when we just won a playoff game.

Yeah i live next to a bengals fan, he and his wife and kids are from ohio. We are really good friends, and last season his 2nd favorite team was the texans until we beat them.

Now he just sent me a message saying we're not welcome at their house anymore haha (he's kidding) but its funny.

I posted this in the game thread but....

look at the 2010/11 season. The Jets got embarrassed by the Pats to the tune of 45-3 on Monday night football. They went into Foxboro in January and beat the Patriots. 28-21. With Mark Sanchez at QB...

How many tds in the red zone? Good luck vs brady
It's your prerogative to be cynical about this team, but I wouldn't ever cynically wish my team luck. I'm going to be cheering from home for us to beat NE. Yes, could we have done things better? Definitely. Redzone woes bother me a bit. But we won today, and that's going to do some stuff for our team's confidence. Our D played like our D, and hell, even the offense clicked MUCH MUCH more than it has recently. I see a team that's gotten off that skid it was on last weekend.

I'm praying and hoping and cheering for them to win next weekend. I don't care if it's NE or the Chiefs - I'm going to support this team.

I like this, just from a friendship kind of viewpoint...lol.

Please go for it on 4th down when you 1 yard to go instead of pointless FG and no more stupid screen passes.
I was frustrated by this too, but I saw why - our D was red hot and absolutely stifling the Bengals. Pinning them down in their territory with a punt is much smarter than giving them a short field, especially with the way the D was killing it out there.

This is why Houston teams can't win championship. They have a looser fan base who's happy with whatever they get. plus the media is soft as **** on the teams. Looser mentality gets you looser teams.

Just thank god for Hakeem

It's not like the win displeases me. I'm not unhappy they won or anything like that. I just wasn't going to breakout the fireworks and fire up the margarita machine over a home win against the Bengals. Particularly not a home win where the Texans could only muster one touchdown.... again.

Nothing's is fixed. The defense held down another fair-to-good team at home. Big deal, that's easily done. Lets see them save our asses in New England next week. That will be a real trick. Even if we get the same effort from the defense and Arian Foster shows up like he did today we still aren't going to win against the Patriots with Schaub playing the way he has for the last 5-6 games.

Schaub was lousy.

Yes, we are Texans fans. We are "loose".

I don't think the 'loser' fanbase was happy with what it saw the past 1-3 weeks now. Texans fans have learned to have expectations from their team. They came through today with a W.
