*** Official Battle Red Game Day Thread Patriots @ Texans ***

[nut]

like mcnair said, we don't need a quarterback. we just need a guy to stand back there,

 

[speedfreek]

This is the most complimentary game we've played all year..

"eh.. & yawn.." on both sides of the ball..

 

[speedfreek]

like mcnair said, we don't need a quarterback. we just need a guy to stand back there,

We do better when he stands back there -- it's when he actually tries to throw it that we get into trouble..

(I still remember his first pass of the season..)

New England Patriots ‏@Patriots
#Patriots injury update: LeGarrette Blount has been downgraded to out. #NEvsHOU

 

[Texans55HaveFuN]

i know hoyer could play better, but our TE need to make that play. i am furious at our D they have to play better than 1st half.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

How do you defend a stiff arm to the face on a jump ball?

Aim for the nuts!

 

[PapaL]

Aim for the nuts!

Then Nuk would definitely be a good choice

 

[htowntexans1985]

Throw yates out their. Can't be any worse than this crap

Horseshit. That ball was high and behind on an in route. Short of dislocating both shoulders he can't catch that. A better throw was needed. Either high or behind.

 

[Texans55HaveFuN]

having no speed is killing us with this small passes can't stop the play before they get 3 to 5 yards.

 

[disaacks3]

Oh well, defense now mailing it in.

It's cause our CBs keep playing 10 yards off the WRs.

 

[xtruroyaltyx]

Looks like a catch

 

[nut]

chris collingsworth is an idiot. he just reads crap off of cards and spouts out nonsense

 

[PapaL]

That's a catch because it's the Pats. Had it been us, it would have been ruled a fumble recovery Patriots hahaha

you are saying our TE had no chance when ball hit both of his hands? come on now. it was bad throw but TE need to make that catch instead dropping it.

 

[disaacks3]

Looks like a catch

It'll be reversed. Ball bounced before he touches it.

If New England scores here, I'd consider waving the white flag and start sitting all starters. Get ready for Luck next week.

 

[texan279]

Brady is about to open up the flood gates.......Fast Five is on SyFy channel fyi.....

 

[EllisUnit]

One view it did but another to me it clearly hit the ground.

Bounced off his hand from what I saw

Well I was wrong

Again, high OR behind would have been a catch. Just because two hands get near a ball at his ears on an IN route doesn't make it catchable.

Playing 8-10 yds off the LOS for a 3rd and 4-6 is killing us.

 

[xtruroyaltyx]

Ok. That last replay was clear.

 

[PapaL]

BMc has steady improved.

 

[xtruroyaltyx]

Did that foot land out?

 

[PapaL]

Back foot was out. Helluva catch

 

[disaacks3]

Like 9 yds off on 3rd and 3? :/

Good coverage, better catch. Hopefully we get lucky and refs throw a call our way during this review.

 

[EllisUnit]

Surely Triplette don't get 2 in a row right....

 

[chicagotexan2]

It's like the Patriots came out listening to N.W.A.

The Texans? Paul Simon.

Or TLC

 

[JCTexan]

It would be huge if this is overturned.

I completely disagree. Though it may be difficult, if you have two hands on it, you had better come down with, I don't care if the ball is 3 yards behind you and you have arms that are 3 yards long.

Have you played ball before. Just asking. No offence, please.

 

[PapaL]

2/2 alright BoB!

 

[JCTexan]

Down 14. We've got to start airing it out.

If it's Hopkins, then that may be catchable. Hoyer threw the same crappy pass last week. 90 yards of free space in front of the guy and he throws it at the TE's back ear on an in?

Yeah I have.

 

[nut]

we were done if we had gone down 3 scores. that was gigantic

 

[EllisUnit]

With Hoyer ? I doubt Patriots go to prevent yet, gonna have to wait until their lead is bigger. Hoyer king of the prevent defenses.

 

[xtruroyaltyx]

Damn....

 

[EllisUnit]

Hoyer late AGAIN.....****

 

[TexansSeminole]

Another poor throw.

 

[nut]

short again hoyer. put some mustard on it

 

[PapaL]

Guess that was a good pass by Hoyer too. Smh.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

A little under thrown??????

 

[xtruroyaltyx]

Hoyer is a little bit less than mediocre at the deep ball.

 

[bah007]

JFC Hoyer...

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Remind me.......OB chose Hoyer for his accuracy???

 

[TexansSeminole]

That was a nice throw. Griffin needs to catch that.
