Texans vs. Cowboys gameday thread

[ObsiWan]

Nice tackle by Bennett but why are they all playing 15 yards off the line of scrimmage? They're playing way off and allowing the short pass and they can't even stop the long pass.

That's the genius strategy of our crack defensive coordinator
who are we to question it?

 

[TexanFan881]

I'd like to see Slaton get in there now

 

[False Start]

If Jacques Reeves was a dinosaur, he would be a Burntasaurus.

 

[euro-Texan]

that went well

 

[TexanFan881]

It was SO obvious that that was coming...then again so was the Cowboys reverse and they ran for 10 yards

 

[DiehardChris]

God Schaub is AWFUL tonight. WTF

 

[TexanFan881]

Schaub misses another open reciever

 

[euro-Texan]

Get David Carr out of there!

 

[Lucky]

Schaub is high on his passes. Needs to settle down.

 

[TexanFan881]

And I was just about to say it's only a matter of time until he throws a pick...

 

[Mailman]

And now they're mugging for the HBO cameras.

 

[TexanSam]

Schaub looks horrible. Our defense looks bad. A few guys injured already.

I'm glad this is a preseason game

 

[76Texan]

Who's going to bring back the Start Sage thread! LOL LOL!

 

[TexanFan881]

Terrible punt and almost got really lucky

 

[ObsiWan]

Matt misses O.D.
then K.W.

did Van Pelt steal Schaub's jersey?

 

[Lucky]

Dallas recovers the muffed punt.

 

[TexSon]

Jesus Christ our entire team is pathetic.

 

[Thorn]

Schaub is looking like warmed over crap.

 

[The Third Man]

Who kidnapped Matt Schaub?

 

[Maddict5]

at least duanes looking good on the plays ive watched him

 

[TexanSam]

Looks like the Cowboys are getting some good pressure from Duane Brown's side too.

 

[Mailman]

Schaub looks horrible. Our defense looks bad. A few guys injured already.

I'm glad this is a preseason game

This is great preparation for Pittsburgh's 3-4.

 

[Stemp]

The team is just flat after Williams got injured.

 

[hollywood_texan]

It seems like Kubiak runs the reverse every game. Very unimaginative for offensive guru...

 

[False Start]

This is taking me back to 2005/2006 .......... they look horrible. Hopefully its just a slow start.

 

[ObsiWan]

Who's going to bring back the Start Sage thread! LOL LOL!

Can you at least wait until the qtr is over??

 

[euro-Texan]

we are getting manhandled like the new prisoner on the cellblock

 

[TexanFan881]

Who's going to bring back the Start Sage thread! LOL LOL!

If Schaub would just let us know when he decides he's not going to show up to play then we could use Rosenfels when Schaubs off and use the Saints game Schaub the rest of the year.

 

[ObsiWan]

It seems like Kubiak runs the reverse every game. Very unimaginative for offensive guru...

When you think about it, we only run about two dozen plays
How hard is it to prepare for that?

 

[euro-Texan]

This is great preparation for Pittsburgh's 3-4.

Oh, they are taking notes

 

[Lucky]

Way too much cushion to the WRs.

 

[TexanSam]

This is taking me back to 2005/2006 .......... they look horrible. Hopefully its just a slow start.

Yeah except that was the entire preseason. This is one quarter so far. I'm not completely worried about our offense. I think they'll be fine. I just think it's an off game for Schaub for whatever reason.

I think there's reason to worry about the defense...

 

[TexSon]

We have not made a single stop on defense. Dallas has just had a couple of miscues, besides that we are getting destroyed in all fashions. This is absolutely pathetic, preseason or not, injured teammate or not.

 

[euro-Texan]

I'm glad this is nationally televised so everyone can see us

 

[Lucky]

Weaver is just dropping back in coverage. He has no chance on the pass rush.

 

[ObsiWan]

oh great, our genius D.C. has Weaver in pass defense.

 

[Stemp]

Our D line is getting schooled by their O line. Romo has ALL DAY to throw and Barber is getting holes large enough to drive a truck through.

 

[Maddict5]

we look bad

 

[TexSon]

I swear our defense closes their eyes once the ball is snapped.

 

[Austrian]

Wow! bad!

 

[The Third Man]

More hits like that, DeMeco.

 

[Thorn]

Texans look horrible. Offense and defense.

 

[False Start]

Off topic, but did anyone see that roach walking across the field on during that screen cut to Demeco before the commercial?

Why was Bud Adams at the game?

 

[bollocks]

I think this game is a good example Richard Smith's vanilla defense not cutting it against good football teams. This isn't the Saints, the plain Jane cover-2 soft safe defense is going to lose us this game (provided Schaub doesn't with his arm. What is wrong with him?).

 

[euro-Texan]

This should be a great week for hardknocks. I bet Jerry Jones is laughing his ass off. Man, we're making Satan laugh

 

[TexanFan881]

Gary should just tell Richard Smith to leave and let Ray Rhodes take over the defense

 

[Austrian]

Texans look horrible. Offense and defense.

Inferior is a better word.

 

[ObsiWan]

T.J. plugged up the middle.
at least sommmebody is playing

 

[Thorn]

So.....anyone read any good books lately?

 

[V Man]

What disturbs me the most about this is, that next week many of our starters won't play and this is will be their last action before the season opener. Not the type of momentum I wanted them to start the season with.
