Houston Texans @ Pittsburgh Steelers. 10/20. 7:30. **Official MNF Gameday Thread**

[False Start]

Who needs Clowney?

 

[xtruroyaltyx]

Love seeing that from merci. Damn that looks good.

 

[PapaL]

JJ Watt is a grown ass man.

 

[JCTexan]

Mercilus with a nice strip sack!

 

[steelbtexan]

Oh Yeah!!!!!!

Whitney making a play. Simon lit a fire under Mercilus

 

[ObsiWan]

There's the T/O I've been waiting for.

 

[mattieuk]

And there is the downside to Big Ben's reluctance to gife up on a play. Lets make this field position count now!

 

[TheMatrix31]

Now go deep on the first play. Do what the Colts did after their break last week.

 

[thunderkyss]

Grandma got on his case

If Grandma ain't happy..... nobody's happy.

 

[WolverineFan]

You don't rush Big Ben like a traditional QB. Dude is a freaking wizard when he's improvising. Gotta keep him contained.

Yep, but there is a downside and we just saw it. Sometimes you just gotta take the sack. He kept fighting and we knocked the ball out.

Great play by Mercilus and of course Watt is right there to finish.

 

[Vance87]

Mercilus, the God of Strip Sack!

 

[redwhiteANDblue]

You don't rush Big Ben like a traditional QB. Dude is a freaking wizard when he's improvising. Gotta keep him contained.

Very true. But you can't expect any defense to cover an NFL offense for more than 5 seconds. Still gotta get some sort of pass rush to force Ben to throw the ball. We got it on the last play though

 

[PapaL]

Our DL looks much more active under RAC.

 

[TheMatrix31]

Holy **** bro we have tight ends?

 

[Mr teX]

Whats this? Merci with back to back good games..holy &@$%!

 

[Mollywhopper]

Fitz with the laser show ...

 

[PapaL]

Brown looks bigger than usual.

 

[False Start]

Woah! A pass to a TE!

 

[PapaL]

This is probably the most complete quarter of football we've played this year.

 

[steelbtexan]

Great Run by Foster

 

[WolverineFan]

Foster is in the damn zone tonight. Guy hasn't missed a cut yet. Feed the man.

 

[ObsiWan]

Holy **** bro we have tight ends?

we see them from time to time
....like Bigfoot

 

[JCTexan]

This is probably the most complete quarter of football we've played this year.

Opening quarter of the Oakland game.. Played damn near perfect football.

 

[playa465]

WWE Big!!!

 

[Vance87]

Opening quarter of the Oakland game.. Played damn near perfect football.

Yeah but that was the Raiders.

 

[False Start]

Almost a bad ass play there.

 

[WolverineFan]

Almost a bad ass play there.

Yep. The pass was there but Fitz threw it off his back foot and just shorted it.

 

[Thorn]

Turnover + 3 points. I'll take it.

 

[TheMatrix31]

Not a fan of how that drive ended. Stalled big time.

 

[redwhiteANDblue]

I hope we keep this up. I don't know why I have a feeling the steelers are gonna wake up really soon.

 

[speedfreek]

defensive holding on pola-mola-hola-bola-malu.
he contacted foster way farther than 5 yds down the field..

Almost a bad ass play there.

 

[Big Lou]

DB had a lot of #10's jersey on that 3rd down. Damn man get some glasses!

 

[steelbtexan]

1st bad pass by Fitz

Fat Randy slams one home off of the Crap field that is Heintz Field. It's worse than NRG.

 

[417Texan]

Fitz had AF open for a Td terrible toss.

 

[ObsiWan]

Almost a bad ass play there.

Why the hell wasn't that illegal contact beyond 5 yds downfield???
With this "increased emphasis" and all that crap

 

[Big Lou]

Come Watt, how about a sack for a loss of 10 or 12 here!

 

[WolverineFan]

Why the hell wasn't that illegal contact beyond 5 yds downfield???
With this "increased emphasis" and all that crap

I would agree if Hal hadn't got away with one earlier. I guess we're even now.

 

[417Texan]

Why the hell wasn't that illegal contact beyond 5 yds downfield???
With this "increased emphasis" and all that crap

Only Brady get those calls

 

[steelbtexan]

Come Watt, how about a sack for a loss of 10 or 12 here!

I like your way of thinking

 

[False Start]

Why the hell wasn't that illegal contact beyond 5 yds downfield???
With this "increased emphasis" and all that crap

Yep. I was for sure it would be called. A no brainer type call.

 

[thunderkyss]

Big Grease

 

[redwhiteANDblue]

Pickett is the size of 2 men holy crap.

 

[thunderkyss]

Boo birds... already??

 

[speedfreek]

Ryan Picket sighting!!

Like being tackled by continental drift! Big-n-Slow..

 

[False Start]

Alfred Blue?

 

[TheMatrix31]

Uh oh, it's starting to rain. Take care of the ball.

 

[steelbtexan]

That's the way to keep the momentum up.

 

[thunderkyss]

Damn Keyshawn... had a big return to the left.

 

[JCTexan]

3 and out for the Steelers. A 17-0 lead would be quite nice here.

 

[steelbtexan]

Big Grease

This is what the Texans defense has been missing for yrs.
