Texans at Steelers: Gameday Thread

im a mixture of excitement and nerves... i think today is a great chance to set down a marker and get a win and make evryone take a little notice. we can beat the steelers if we play clean football

might as well start off early in the thread... anybody got an internet stream of the game before i go searching?
 
added my players to the Sunday Ticket player tracker this morning and noticed they have added a channel for HD game mix and HD Red Zone.

SWEET!

C'mon Texans! Let's pull a shocker today!

:fans:
 
Cool, texanstalk is back up! Just in time for the game!


Keys to the game:


#1. Stop the running game of the Steelers.

#2. Putting pressure on Roethlisberger. Stopping the running game will help this.

#3. The Texans need to average 3-4 yards a carry.

#4. Take the crowd out of the game early.

Sweet! The board is running pretty smooth again thanks to vinny. Hope you didn't stay up late fixing it.

I have a good feeling about today. I know I predicted a loss, but I have a feeling it could be Carolina vs. Texans 07 all over again. You know what I love about cocky fans like those Panthers and Steelers fans? Its that after they get upsetted in a game against an underdog, they totally flipped out on their forum and act like their season is going to go 2-14 or something. Makes for some good reading material.:D

Texans inactives:

Xavier Adibi
Rashad Butler
Eugene Wilson
Kasey Studdard
Tim Bulman
Earl Cochran
Frank Okam
Dominique barber

(per HT.com blog)
 
Barber is one of my adoptees and he's inactive also. Cochran's going to play though!

He was part of the inactive's list, as is Okam. Sad, we're losing size up front, which we needed against a tough Steelers running game. That means Weaver is playing most game right? :mcnugget:

I'm hoping Kalu and McClover see a lot of action on passing downs. DelJuan Robinson over Frank Okam is an interesting move. Losing about 50 lbs anchoring against the run right there.

oops my bad I over looked him. I guess we should expect Stanley McClover to get some playing time.
 
Been listening to 610 since 4:30am your time, just waiting for that sweet Texan talk... we're... so.. close... :)

Dude, I couldn't sleep at all last night. I got into bed at 1am and laid there with football thoughts running through my head til like 5am. Then I woke up early at 10am because of the dang constructors fixing my roof was making all these noises. I need coffee.
 
almost as much as this kid!

Here you go Wes, your own avatar! (Come on, we knew it was you, just don't overreact when you see this) :specnatz:

Got a real (or maybe I should say . . realistic) bad feeling about this one.

Me thinks we could be chunking our beer bottles at the TV before halftime.
 
I hate Weaver......the sooner we cut his sorry ... the better off he will be.

True. He might be of help on the running game though, unless his skills in that also diminished. I haven't paid much attention to him last year or pre-season so I wouldn't know.
 
I'm glad we got TexansTalk back, I thought I was going to have to spend the whole game on the Steelers board. LOL

GO TEXANS! :fans:
 
Ahhh, football season. The weekly ritual of looking on the internet to find a stream of the Texans, delaying sunday dinner so its not during the game, and listing to 610 starts again. Unbeatable.

Beer time! :texflag:
