Gameday Thread: Colts @ Texans

Maddict5

Hall of Fame
So... its 5:50 am over here and i cant sleep which must mean one thing: ITS THE BEST DAY OF THE YEAR! wont have this much proper football looking at us again for another year

as far as the colts game, i know we did the 'biggest game ever' thing too much last yr but i really feel this could be it. last yr those were big games for us texans fans but tbh not too many other people cared v much about the texans wildcard possibilities.

alot of people are talking about this game though. alot of people want to believe in this texans team and IF we can somehow pull it off, there will be huge momentum & belief to be gained from it. thats why its our biggest game ever imo

rewatched the colts @ texans game from last yr yest and was surprised to remember how we lost it with matt & aj being big reasons for that loss (lots of miscommunication between them on option plays that resulted in a incomplete pass when aj had single coverage on a first half 3rd down play & an int + aj's td drop that resulted in a fg). reeves also had a terrible outing.

all i know is that its unlikely those two make so many mistakes again. a load has changed since that game though and it will be alot harder without cush (& with freeney & sanders) which is a huge upgrade for them.

on our side, we have big plusses too with the following upgrades from that game: OD's back, wilson over busing (huge), foster over a fairly timid slaton, wade smith over studdard (pretty big upgrade too hopefully) and the unknown young cb's over last yrs meh veteran unit (also a better kicking game).

overall im expecting anothet tight game and i think with our run game & the fact matt & andre more than likely wont make that many mistakes again im taking us by a td 31-24
 
I feel ya. It feels like the first day of school. I'm nervous and have the butterflys. Football season is upon us again.
 
We're sitting here in the RV at TBB HQ. Trying to figure out how I'm going to get any sleep tonight. I don't see it happening.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't think this was the biggest game for us. In actuality it's not though. I think this team is good enough that they could recover from an 0-1 start, even if it means a loss to the Colts.

In week 17 we had to win to have a chance to go to the playoffs. We HAD TO WIN. And we did.

See you boys in 8 hours when the parking lot opens.
 
Alright TEXANS fans here we go again

"The most important game in franchise history"

Let's show the nation and the league that we mean business and have a great outing. 2010 will be our season as long as our TEXANS play with consistency...

Cmon HOUSTON I wanna hear that stadium rock, wish I could be there to help y'all out!

LET'S GO TEXANS!
 
OMG I can't sleep. I'm too damn pumped about tomorrow. This time it feels different. This time will be different. We will win because we will be consistent!!!
 
I have been a fan since the start of the franchise. Tomorrow will be the first game for me and my son!!! What time should we show up in the morning?

I am too pumped up to sleep. I'm thinking about going down to the Quicky Mart and knocking the piss out of Habib!!!!!!!

calm down there you little go getter
 
Hey andrew, I have no parking pass. Where is the best place for me to park? Somewhere down the road and ride metrorail?
 
Big Toro parks at the hotel next to the stadium for 20 bucks and walks over to the plat. lot (very short walk) I guess its the hotel right off of Kirby. I would say get there early though as I am sure it'll fill up quickly.
 
can't wait to wake up and watch this game in HD!!! words can't fully describe how pumped i am!!!
 
we. will. win. if i'm right, superbowl. if wrong, another shot at hte playoffs. color coded for all you not white backgrounders.

It is kind of special, isn't it? Today the season starts. No less against Jarhead & Co. I'm nervous, silly I know.

Starting at noon all this speculation means squat. A fumble is a fumble and an AJ TD is just that. No mulligans.
 
Kinda wish either the Texans game or Raiders game was at a later time so I could watch both games, since both teams have many questions that will for the most part be answered in their first game.

hopefully that will be our first & last comparison to the raiders this yr ;)
 
You guys/gals are GREAT! I have NO idea what the word SLEEP means right now, and don't really care. Just ready for 0700 to get here so I can officially start my 2010 season!!!

If any of you come by Platinum and visit the Blue Crew, please say hello! It would be my honor to meet you! We definitely have FANtastic fans!!!

GOOOOO TEXANS!!!!!!!!:fans::shetexan:
 
Finally, football season is here again! Time to see what this year's Texans are made of. :logo:
 
Getting ready for the annual pilgrimage to Reliant from Austin. It never gets old.

Texans 23
Colts 17

:texflag:

No it sure doesn't but I made our trek last night. We're now getting dressed. Scratch that... I'm ready. Waiting for the wife to finish showering.

I sure wish she'd hurry up. It's gameday gameday gameday gameday holy gameday!!!
 
So excited, couldn't sleep. I'm just gonna leave a little earlier for the game today, i hope to see this thread loaded with happy thoughts after a texans victory when i get back. :fans: :texflag:
 
This may not be considered the biggest game of the year for the Texans, but man it is for me. I seriously think this game will show us how much they want it, and how well Kubiak has them prepared. I think there is no other team we could play opening day right now that would give us ANY better indication of where our team is at.

Call me crazy, but my hopes for the playoffs start here.

GO TEXANS!!!
 
My alarm wasn't suppose to go off until 11:30, but I woke up to use the restroom and can't get my ass to go back to sleep. Time to get the herbs, donuts, and watch some pregame shows.
 
Yellow Lot FTW! Can't wait to see everybody out there! And yes this game will set the pulse for the season... IMO. Texans 27, Colts 24 ... Rackers game winner last minute.

Thats cool, glad my tickets are going to such good use. Nothing like taking your boy to his first game, I remember fondly going to Oiler games with my dad. Hope you guys have a blast!
 
I've got to man the store during the game, so the DVR is my bestest buddy today.

Yeah, I have to work, too. Going to ignore all text messages and phone calls and come home, have some beer and watch the game like it hasn't happened yet.

Man, this workday can't end fast enough!
