**Official Game-Day Thread** Preseason Texans at Rams, Saturday Aug 25, 2018!!

[ObsiWan]

What's that smell coming from LA? That's the Texans reserve DBs in the 2nd half. Pew!

I don't even see anyone worth a spot on the practice squad. Hope Gaines takes some extra time looking at possible waiver wire DBs.

that's the smell of Rose's kicking

 

[TheRealJoker]

Even though it didn't work out I liked that they went for it on 4th down. They aren't interested in keeping Rose at this point i'm sure. Might as well work 4th down situations!

 

[Lucky]

Kickers? Who cares about kickers?

Even though it didn't work out I liked that they went for it on 4th down.

Sure, but could someone tell Weeden that on 4th and goal, throw the ball into the end zone?

 

[ObsiWan]

I don't recognize a single name on the defense on the field right now

 

[Brisco_County]

I don't recognize a single name on the defense on the field right now

Neither will the front office in a week.

 

[nut]

Rose missed plenty of kicks in college when there was pressure

 

[Brisco_County]

Hey, there's Terry Swanson.

 

[ObsiWan]

Wait Joe Webb made a play and the video crashes...??

 

[disaacks3]

And KTRK with their usual pooch-screw of coverage.

 

[Brisco_County]

Haha, what a BS call.

 

[TheRealJoker]

That Joe Webb to Vyncint Smith connection is real boys!

 

[disaacks3]

Haha, what a BS call.

No joke. 2 replays later and I still don’t see it.

 

[ObsiWan]

Good pass.
better defense

 

[Carr Bombed]

Wait Joe Webb made a play and the video crashes...??

LMAO!

What happened on that play? I WANT TO KNOW!

 

[TheRealJoker]

Has Jordan Thomas received a target this preseason?

 

[Brisco_County]

LMAO!

What happened on that play? I WANT TO KNOW!

Gotta wait for the Youtube post of the game in a couple of days.

 

[Carr Bombed]

Right, and is there a TV market for two extra weeks of football? Not sure. You don't want over saturation of your product. That may already be occurring with the Thursday night package. Delicate balance.

Thursday night football is horrible.. worst ever.

 

[Brisco_County]

Either O'Brien just got ballsy with the 2 point call, or he already sent Nick Rose to the showers.

 

[TheRealJoker]

Just throw it up Webb it's a 2 point conversion!

 

[Carr Bombed]

Either O'Brien just got ballsy with the 2 point call, or he already sent Nick Rose to the showers.

I was talking about the blacked out play.

Sadly we can still win this, but it won't matter at all.

 

[nut]

Obrien had to go for 2. He would have been fried if someone got hurt in OT. Unwritten rule. He was going for 1 until he thought about the unwritten rule.

 

[Brisco_County]

The offensive coach is showing Webb how the play is dependent on the ball moving toward the EZ and not away from it.

Thursday night football is horrible.. worst ever.

I'll give you one worse: Overtime in preseason.

 

[Brisco_County]

Christian Covington's Madden character looks like they spliced him with Chester Pitts.

 

[TxnsJuggernaut]

For a meaningless game this was not a bad game to watch.

 

[ObsiWan]

For a meaningless game this was not a bad game to watch.

wait'll next week when we don't get the starters

 

[Texansballer74]

Playing for the win

 

[ObsiWan]

Okay it's time for Joe Webb magic!!

 

[justmy2cents]

A few moments ago, the camera focused on our OL players who had just come off of the field. David Q. was sitting on the bench, sweating, dirty, and breathing hard while getting frequent shots of water. He was surrounded on either side and in front, with offensive linemen, taking turns talking to him, asking questions, etc. It was beautiful !

 

[nut]

Obrien should have had a play ready for that 2-pt situation. That didn't look good.

 

[TxnsJuggernaut]

wait'll next week when we don't get the starters

We did not get the dress rehearsal that usually happens on the third preseason so in that regard this game was a bit of a disappointment but still it was a close game and nobody got seriously hurt. Next week I doubt I watch any preseason games. This game all in all was a good way to prepare us for the games that count.

 

[Texansphan]

John Kelly just made this defense look silly.

Has anybody been watching DQ?
Looking for a progress report.

Webb threw a duck to Weah.

Under review? It's a minute left in a preseason game. Let the game go on, please.

 

[ObsiWan]

you can't review the spot unless the challenge flag is thrown

...can you?

Under 2 minutes, it's called by the booth official.

 

[HouTx11]

Webb sucks

 

[ObsiWan]

right, right

 

[HouTx11]

The refs are icing Rose lol

 

[ObsiWan]

I didn't think he had that much leg

 

[HouTx11]

Rose, you win dude the complimentary Apple and a Roadmap, dude!

 

[PapaL]

Womp Womp Womp
Glad no one got hurt.

 

[Texansphan]

Webb sucks

I've noticed he tends to hold onto the ball too long.

 

[AngryNateFTW]

Rose 0-2 on the day. Don't ever wonder why you're not a starting kicker in the NFL. Just a scrub with a strong leg.

 

[HouTx11]

I've noticed he tends to hold onto the ball too long.

You are right about that. Way too long.

 

[Brisco_County]

I turned off the game early to go get some Thai.

Just checked the score and see that Nick Rose missed the game winning field goal. Quelle surprise!

 

[Seegara]

How many on this board think if Watson gets hurt the season is over ?

I don't think so. I KNOW so.

 

[Thorn]

Womp Womp Womp
Glad no one got hurt.

Probably the most important thing that could have happened today.

 

[Seegara]

Under review? It's a minute left in a preseason game. Let the game go on, please.

After the review the clock should have been reset to 1:06.

 

[Texansballer74]

Bye bye Rose.
