Houston Texans @ Jacksonville Jaguars. Noon. 9/16. **Official GameDay Thread**

[TheMatrix31]

Stream is damn near unwatchable. No idea who the internet at my Uncle's sucks so bad.

Seems like we had a good drive.

 

[ckhouston]

Matt looks better than last week. It will only get better as the game goes on.

 

[SAMURAITEXAN]

Anyway, it is 3-0 Texans!!!

Go Texans!!!

 

[EllisUnit]

Wish they would give a fade to aj in those situations

AJ said he didnt know why they dont do it more last week, but its the coaches call.....his words

 

[TexCanada]

Gotta finish those droves. Oh well, we look strong so far. Lets go D!

 

[EllisUnit]

wow Graham with a Touch back, the wind must be blowing 100 miles an hour

 

[Premier]

walter can sit down somewhere..

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Think that was the 1st KO to reach the back of the EZ. We need more of that.

 

[EllisUnit]

walter can sit down somewhere..

agree i want AJ, Martin and jean on the field together

 

[SmoochyTX]

And Cody gets our first penalty of the game.

So on his next On The Nose, he needs to talk about that instead of talking about the first tackle. hehehehe

That's a shame. Dennison and Kubiak coach the offense scared in my opinion. Their main objective is to not turn the ball over - not scoring touchdowns. With all those weapons on offense we have there's no excuse for settling for field goals.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

Vikings already up 3-0 on Colts.

 

[EllisUnit]

wow cushing picture looks bad haha

 

[EllisUnit]

ok how many off sides can we have to start the game

 

[redwhiteANDblue]

Jumping offsides....damn

 

[SmoochyTX]

2 penalties in a row on our D? Come on man!!

 

[Austrian]

A little jumpy. Gifted them a first down.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

that'l be another OS

 

[EllisUnit]

good stop up the middle, come on D

 

[welsh texan]

We seem a little more solid up the middle today.

 

[ChrisG]

Watt has got some long arms lol

 

[redwhiteANDblue]

Swattt

 

[GlassHalfFull]

and the finger wag

 

[Austrian]

Watt is a beast.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

The Jags OL is keeping our D from putting any pressure on Gabbert.

 

[Ruinondd]

Watt at it again!

 

[ckhouston]

Run defense looks much better. JJ Watt is a beast!

 

[SmoochyTX]

and the finger wag

I love that finger wag.

 

[CloakNNNdagger]

The Gunner (with our defender back 3 yds behind him) was on top of Holliday before the ball was.

 

[ChrisG]

Bad play call. Always screens or draws on 3rd and 9+

 

[Commodore]

Marv Albert just inserted a "JJ SWATT" into his broadcast, now it has to catch on

 

[redwhiteANDblue]

Damn bad playcall...come on kubes

 

[welsh texan]

That's a shame. Dennison and Kubiak coach the offense scared in my opinion. Their main objective is to not turn the ball over - not scoring touchdowns. With all those weapons on offense we have there's no excuse for settling for field goals.

I see it a little differently, I think they pick and choose when to attempt their big plays and spend a lot of the game setting up looks etc that will keep the D off guard.

Sometimes I just think they have a little trouble changing their philosophy in the red zone but I'll give them a pass on that.

 

[Austrian]

SChaub having no time and a little happy feet.

 

[sandmanx]

Well, at least it was a damn good punt.

 

[TexCanada]

Beautiful punt and coverage. Great timing too with us being deep in our own end.

 

[A time to chill]

Bad play call. Always screens or draws on 3rd and 9+

Exactly...not sure why they don't throw past the first down marker in those situations. That's too conservative.

 

[gafftop]

Schaub slow and immobile. Think still suffering from injury. Not sure but it seems to effect his throws also.

 

[welsh texan]

Exactly...not sure why they don't throw past the first down marker in those situations. That's too conservative.

I agree on the 3rd and long, its very predictable what they'll call there.

 

[TheMatrix31]

Please let's not go with "JJ Swat"....ugh

 

[SmoochyTX]

Please let's not go with "JJ Swat"....ugh

I think it's better than Sultan of Swat. LOL

 

[Xcellerator]

Holliday with a good return!

 

[SmoochyTX]

Nice return by Holliday!

 

[Austrian]

NIce 3 and out.

edit: damn my stream is slow.

 

[TdotTexas2Step]

That's what we need from Holliday!

 

[ChrisG]

There is the preseason holiday

 

[Dutchrudder]

The way this game is going, the Jags will have 8 false starts today.

 

[redwhiteANDblue]

Hollidayy yeeee boii!!!!

Could be, but I think you have to take advantage of every possession. And the only reason why the offense can get a pass is the so far superb play on the defense. But Defense doesn't win games, it only gives you a chance to win. At the end of the day the offense has to go out there and score some touchdowns.

Trindon!!
