Clowney coming off. Now it looks like his night is done. Tosses helmet on bench, lets hair loose, shakes Osweiler's hand. #LookedGood

'bout time

I'm not sure I know many of those people, but I have a neighbor who is a geophysicist for oil & gas. I'll chat him up when I get back and see if he can give me any info. Times like these, us oilfield trash have to look out for each other.

Appreciate the love brother. And already, we have to look out one another for sure.

 

[powda]

Clowney looked solid tonight. Still encouraged. Just keep your ass on the field.

Aaron Wilson ‏@AaronWilson_NFL
Christian Covington has one sack, three solo tackles, two for losses

 

[False Start]

Innegan sighting.

 

[ObsiWan]

Uh oh
Where's steelb?

 

[Brandon420tx]

The only thing I really wanted to see this game was if Stephan Anderson would get some time with the 1s and he did, everything else has been a pleasant surprise for the most part.

 

[Brandon420tx]

That new Scarlett guy has been noticeable this game.

How did he look?

 

[ObsiWan]

Okay now *I'm* even getting tired of McNair

Washington, Lee and Scarlett are all winning one on ones. That is a good sign. #Texans

#Texans defense holds again and forces a field goal from the #Saints. 13-6 Texans lead with 11:14 left in the 4th qtr.

 

[Brandon420tx]

How did he look?

He actually didn't do much lol, but I just wanted to see if he'd get in the game ahead of Griffin (and he did)

 

[ObsiWan]

Now THAT was a proper KO return

 

[EllisUnit]

It's all good brother, I have a few leads as we speak. So hopefully I will be back out there soon.

It's getting better out there man. Hope it all works out for you !

 

[OzzO]

Now THAT was a proper KO return

Agree, Hunt looked better than Williams

 

[OzzO]

Savage is looking off tonight. Bring in the Weed

Conversation on sideline...
B'OB: what the heck was that pass
Savage: I was shuffling my feet to get ready to throw
B'OB: gotta throw it down field

A pass 1/2 yard backward.... golly that's some eagle eye reffing

 

[Brandon420tx]

Whelp that sucks lol

 

[JamTex]

Savage is not looking good tonight.

 

[ObsiWan]

O'Brien reading Savage the riot act because of that backwards pass
and yes, it was backwards
I wonder what they'll do since no one officially recovered it

 

[powda]

Ouch

 

[ObsiWan]

There goes the win. Thanks Savage

 

[EllisUnit]

Well, I was laid off from my position as a project manager in April '15, so I started my own gig, and now I'm going offshore as a company rep, superintendent, foreman, or whatever other kind of whore they will pay me for being. Right now I'm out here as the night shift company man for a platform removal. It's a pretty cool job.

Yeah being a company man is Def a good job. What company you working for right now ?

 

[HouTx11]

Not a very good night for Savage obviously. Hope he shakes out these flaws in time for the regular season.

 

[speedfreek]

Are we officially off the Savage wagon now?
That might have been the dumbest QB play I have ever seen --
short of the butt fumble.

 

[ObsiWan]

Oooooo
We lucked out there
that should have been six

 

[Brandon420tx]

That's not dodging a bullet, that's a fortunate misfire haha

 

[speedfreek]

ha ha, "The Texans Defense Holds" what great announcing...

 

[OzzO]

Oooooo
We lucked out there
that should have been six

#20 Allen agrees

 

[ObsiWan]

Another good return by Hunt

 

[False Start]

The Weed man is here!

 

[ObsiWan]

Here's Weeden's chance to leap frog Savage

 

[JCTexan]

O'Brien reading Savage the riot act because of that backwards pass

The Saints were definitely the team that recovered it, after the whistle anyway.. Which is the problem I have with the ruling. The refs blew the whistle and announced it as an incomplete pass to the entire stadium before the Saints recovered it.. Savage even stopped trying once he heard the "incomplete play" boom across the speaker.

 

[OzzO]

Adam Wexler ‏@awexlerKPRC
Weeden in for #Texans

 

[Brandon420tx]

Mumphrey is a surprisingly good blocker

 

[Mari-OWNED!]

Another good return by Hunt

Yeah, I'd like to see him get some more chances than Ervin. He seems a lot more comfortable in return duty.

 

[EVOLVIST]

Weeden doesn't deserve to be behind this offensive line.

 

[ObsiWan]

Good game.
I'm out

 

[b0ng]

God the camera work and the commentary is brutally awful

 

[speedfreek]

AKA "Smooookin'"

Adam Wexler ‏@awexlerKPRC
Weeden in for #Texans

 

[OzzO]

So Sean gets to chat with the refs about the call

 

[speedfreek]

"Quick as a hiccup"

 

[b0ng]

"Intentionality"

 

[FuzzyLogic]

in·ten·tion·al·i·ty
inˌtenCHəˈnalitē/
noun

1. the fact of being deliberate or purposive.

 

[JamTex]

There's Lenz!

 

[speedfreek]

We need to convince spencer that
"like a laser through a Lenz on that pass play"
fits..

 

[OzzO]

So Lenz is a baby Wes Wekleleleer... err Welker

 

[powda]

Intentionality.

Dear Spencer, i hate you.

 

[OzzO]

nice decision by Weeds

PDS ‏@PatDStat
Anthony Denham with a nice catch and run for 13 yards. #Texans

 

[speedfreek]

Smokin' got caught Tokin' there..
