Houston Texans @ Indianapolis Colts. Noon. 12/30. **Official GameDay Thread**

[axman40]

Running up the score by 3 will not win this game.

 

[EllisUnit]

Hey we have matched last games points, one more FG and our offense will be on fire..............

 

[ChrisG]

would have been perfect for a PA roll out

 

[The Third Man]

Absolute crap, Texans.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Just barely.......boy am I confident!

 

[Mr teX]

What the **** kubiak???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Lol, we pass it on 3rd and 9 folks complain...we run it on 3rd and 2...people complain...

 

[disaacks3]

Owen gets stood up on his block and Arian runs into the roadblock...lovely.

 

[GP]

Contact initiated the backward trajectory of the ball????

The NFL seriously has that in place? They have stated in the rules that a QB whose pass goes lateral or backwards, IF it was due to contact by the defenders, it is then an incomplete FORWARD pass...because of THAT loophole???

LMAO!

You can't write this stuff. Classic!

OMGZ.

 

[mariowillshine15]

Right side of the line sucks

You think they would run at the side with the Pro Bowl LT. Oh no Kubiak is smarter than that!

 

[gwallaia]

I'm tired of all these damn field goals.

 

[TheMatrix31]

Actually, I don't mind the playcall that much. The Colts run D sucks and we have Arian Foster. Not the call's fault they couldn't get blocking on it.

 

[Dishman]

We need some damn touchdowns. This FG crap is a bit much to swallow.

 

[EllisUnit]

Lol, we pass it on 3rd and 9 folks complain...we run it on 3rd and 2...people complain...

Not to the weak side of the line though.....................

 

[dream_team]

Lol, we pass it on 3rd and 9 folks complain...we run it on 3rd and 2...people complain...

I hear you. If it doesn't work, it's Kubiak's fault somehow.

 

[SmoochyTX]

:kubepalm:

 

[Dishman]

If the blocking sucks,which it has, then try another play call.

 

[Mr teX]

Not to the weak side of the line though.....................

Shouldnt matter...its 2 freaking yards man

 

[gafftop]

We lost momentum. One big play by Indy and we are in trouble.

 

[nut]

kubiak is a chickenshoot

 

[Big Lou]

OMGZ.

CBS wants a Colts win too. When you need that many excuses for a call you know it's B.S.

 

[EllisUnit]

Shouldnt matter...its 2 freaking yards man

Well it looks to me like it mattered....

 

[DX-TEX]

We are so done

 

[GP]

What a coincidence the NFL scheduled us to play the Colts IN THEIR PLACE for the last game of this season.

Schedule us for the Jags? Nope.

Schedule us for the Titans? Nope.

Let's play the Luck-led Colts, in their house, for the final game.

And that guy ****ING FUMBLED the ball but the Colts' refs blew the whistle early. geez almighty.

 

[Premier]

people are complaining about the screen, not because it was a pass.. the point still being, how about throwing beyond the first down marker..

 

[Pantherstang84]

Finally Dierdork says something I agree with. Kicking field goals instead of scoring touch downs is a recipe for losing.

 

[Imatexanfan]

Once again we need the defense to score for us...the top offense in the league can't score TDs WTF

 

[TexanBacker93]

We need to get a turnover. Maybe even returned for a TD so the offense sees how its done.

 

[mariowillshine15]

I know i couldn't believe i agreed with something he said.

 

[Showtime100]

Shouldnt matter...its 2 freaking yards man

But it does matter, geezus.

 

[Wolf]

With 10:15 left before halftime, Texans trail Colts 7-6. WR Andre Johnson has 4 catches for 48 yds, becoming only 2nd NFL player ever with 3 seasons of 1,500 or more receiving yds.

We shouldn't need any favours with scheduling. It's the Colts, not the Pats.

 

[Mr. Texan]

you can't waste opportunities like that in the playoffs.

those are game changing plays that have effect over the course of a game

 

[dc_txtech]

Not to the weak side of the line though.....................

Are you suggesting every run play should go to the left?

 

[mariowillshine15]

MVP making plays.

 

[Nawzer]

Well it looks to me like it mattered....

If you're going to run then run to towards the strong side of your line. The right side is absolute **** right now in run blocking. And the passing game was looking good with that completion to AJ.

 

[HTown2ATX]

Lol, we pass it on 3rd and 9 folks complain...we run it on 3rd and 2...people complain...

Lol....uh....you saw that pass on that 3rd and 9 right...that's basically a run play. I think we're referring to wanting a DOWNFIELD pass on 3rd and 9 more often....you know....something near the down marker.

Just sayin....

 

[EllisUnit]

Are you suggesting every run play should go to the left?

haha no but when it is 3rd and 2 in the redzone, yeah i would go to the strong side.

 

[GP]

All we can hope for is that the Texans keep hitting Luck so hard that Pagano plays it smart and pulls him from the game.

We need some really slobber-knocking hits on Luck. Even if it gets us a penalty, we need Luck to get banged up repeatedly here.

Pagano will think "Well, this has been nice, but we need Luck for the playoffs."

 

[2slik4u]

im both...i grew up in indy but alot of my family is in houston..i love both teams..

Not sure if I agree with that...

Kind of like being a Longhorn AND a Sooner fan. Just doesn't mix well.

 

[GP]

 

[Mr teX]

I'll tell u something else too..the blueprint to beating our defense has been laid...short passes out of bunch formations and a splash of the run game..it sux too b/c JJ has been so amazing this but he cant do it all

 

[Fred]

One play. Big deal. Still the first half.

Not it is not one play that has people upset. It is that the fix is in. So it will be as many plays as the refs need it to be. NFL wants ChuckStrong AND NE and Denver to have playoff byes.

 

[TexanBacker93]

The schedule did come out before the draft. Plus, nobody thought the Colts would be this good so soon.

 

[gafftop]

Is that 50???

 

[SmoochyTX]

Penalty on the Texans. Surprise!

 

[EllisUnit]

of course....Schaub would wait until they ran off

 

[mariowillshine15]

Of course they catch us with 12 on the field.

 

[Dishman]

I'll tell u something else too..the blueprint to beating our defense has been laid...short passes out of bunch formations and a splash of the run game..it sux too b/c JJ has been so amazing this but he cant do it all

The defense could use a little hand from the offense.

 

[dc_txtech]

haha no but when it is 3rd and 2 in the redzone, yeah i would go to the strong side.

I hear ya but you can't be that predictable. You've gotta be able to run both ways in crucial situations.

 

[ATXtexanfan]

Man this sucks
