FedEx field indeed as we'll be shipping it up and down said field all day.

 

[JamTex]

Texans will be 7-3 after this one.
Should be a great game after a long 2 week wait.
Great thread TejasTom!

Go Texans!

Some key things are the 2 teams turnovers on offense. Notice Houston has 15 and Washington has 16. Hmmm. Houston has 1 less then Washington on offensive turn overs. So is Washington really that much better at protecting the ball? Apparently not.
Also notice that both have 7 interceptions on defense. So both can equally take the ball away on pass defense.
The obvious thing is that Washington forces fumbles. Houston doesn't fumble and Deshaun has learned how to protect the ball.
All Houston has to do is stop Peterson on defense and continue doing what they do on offense and Houston wins this game.

Go Texans!

 

[NastyNate]

Let's goooooo good guys. Not feeling very confident in this game. Hope we can pull it out though.

 

[KA4Texan]

Just win!!!!

 

[BOBdaFRAUD]

I am just hoping no injuries

 

[Thorn]

Extending their win streak to 7 would be impressive. We shall see.

 

[TejasTom]

I’d like to see that our coach learned something useful over the bye week.

 

[NitroGSXR]

Looks like Keke’s playing today.

 

[AcresHomesTexan]

Not expecting a pretty football game, while thinking the Texans will win, the Redskins and Texans are close enough where Washington can win the game on its merit as a football team, not just the Texans messing up...yes I repeated myself from another thread

 

[dream_team]

Burton inactive. Who’s returning kicks?

 

[steelbtexan]

In one thread I said I thought it was going to be a FG game.

After sleeping on it, the Texans win by atleast a TD.

 

[JB]

Getting scared now

 

[DocBar]

Got my gear on and boudin cooked and ready to go. I'm hoping to see a good game from the Texans today.

good Boudin is hard to beat as I hope the Texans are today

If the Texans are as good as the boudin this game should be a rout.

BTW, where do you get boudin in Ohio?

Never underestimate what you can mail order. Link

My favorite pizza place will half cook it and then ship on dry ice. Never seen another pizza like it. Two thin crusts, toppings & cheese in between, chunky tomato sauce on top. Each piece weighs a pound (or so it seems).

One of the guys I work with is from the Lafeyette area. He brings some back with him every time he goes home. There is actually a very good Cajun restaurant not too far from me.

Thanks for the link. That just got added to my favorites folder.

I have a friend from Lafeyette he took me to a general store there, the store literally had a hole in the floor (Pier and beam.) It had the best boudin I've eaten.

I cant remember the name of the place, but if your going I-10 east you exit the Lafeyette exit go left croos over the RR tracks and it's right there.

Sarah Barshop‏@sarahbarshop 1h1 hour ago


WR Keke Coutee (hamstring) and CB Johnathan Joseph (ankle/knee) are active for the Texans for Sunday’s game against the Redskins. Inactive: WR Vyncint Smith, CB Aaron Colvin, CB Deante Burton, ILB Zach Cunningham, OLB Duke Ejiofor, DE Carlos Watkins and DE Joel Heath.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Will be "holding my breath" all game long for Coutee and JJo.

 

[justmy2cents]

It would go a long way to inspire confidence for the future if O'Brien would throw in a few offensive wrinkles today. Skins certainly wouldn't be looking for them !

 

[Scooter]

Kareem wrecking the first 2 plays.

 

[OptimisticTexan]

Well KJax opened up the game with a heck of a hit while driving through the block!!!!

 

[Texansballer74]

Kareem Jackson killing it this year.

 

[Scooter]

Make that 3 with good positioning blocking Smith's target without getting a holding call.

 

[Jadmakaveli]

Good first drive defense.

[CloakNNNdagger]

If Redskins' history this season plays out............1st one to score wins.

 

[Scooter]

That leak is EXACTLY what I've been talking about. 8 yards as his second and easy target.

 

[TheMatrix31]

Wonderful playcall on 3rd down. Love it.

 

[Austrian]

Surprising first play there

 

[Texansballer74]

That's how you utilize the TE

 

[Scooter]

And another where the TE beats the blitz, not by blocking.

 

[OptimisticTexan]

Aikens ran the ball nicely after the catch.

 

[DocBar]

I hope Fulton is OK. This game has started out great.

 

[justmy2cents]

Offense calls and execution look much improved .... so far !

 

[djl3485]

Kareem is playing for that contract this year.

 

[amazing80]

Akins and Thomas are beasts. I really want to see more throws to them

 

[DocBar]

It would go a long way to inspire confidence for the future if O'Brien would throw in a few offensive wrinkles today. Skins certainly wouldn't be looking for them !

You mean like Miller up the middle and/or a wr screen on third and long?

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Fulton looks like he injured his right shoulder.

 

[welsh texan]

Love these open bowl stadiums, so different from what we have over here!

 

[Jadmakaveli]

LETS GO KEKE

 

[OptimisticTexan]

Coutee's hamstring looked good on that play.

 

[Texansballer74]

Running on the first is killing me. Come on coach, mix it up
