Texans V Steelers Game Day Thread

[ObsiWan]

Them damned back-shoulder plays are hard to defend

 

[axman40]

Now Brown and Ben are on the same page.

 

[gafftop]

Need a turnover

 

[GP]

This ref crew is IN THE TANK for the Steelers. Seriously.

They missed an OBVIOUS push off by the WR on that long pass play.

 

[TheMatrix31]

**** Rashard Mendenhall.

 

[DocBar]

hold em D

 

[axman40]

Let's get fired up D!

 

[burro]

Ill say this, the pass defense is shaky, but I'm loving this run d.

 

[mariowillshine15]

Damn finish the play!

 

[GP]

Are you freaking kidding me.

 

[STEEL BLUE TEXANS]

JJ whiffed there

 

[DocBar]

I'm using cuss words that I didn't even know existed

 

[TheMatrix31]

Big Ben is a wizard.

 

[axman40]

Ben to the 3
:vincepalm:

 

[speedfreek]

here comes 7 points, and a brand new ball game..

TJ

 

[Wolf]

watt got juked

 

[Pantherstang84]

Ole`!!!!

 

[GP]

Oh look, it's the patented sweep play that Sproles broke a TD on us last week.

FML.

 

[burro]

:wadepalm:
booooo

 

[Maddict5]

JJ needs to stop missing ben. 2nd time at last

 

[ChrisG]

And the usual second half begins

 

[Showtime100]

Steelers picking on Allen now. Oh boy...

I made a post earlier about them having plenty of film to look at at halftime, Allen was who I had in mind.

How many Pittsburgh fans made it to this freaking game?? Geezus.

 

[kiwitexansfan]

Roethelisberger >>>> Schaub.

 

[speedfreek]

Tooo fking easy!!

Tj

 

[STEEL BLUE TEXANS]

And now the Steelers have all the momentum.

 

[Mr. Texan]

*sigh*

 

[playa465]

I disagree. I believe the coaches have direct impact on a lack of discipline.
Kubiak is the veteran leadership. Phillips is the veteran leadership. Players out of control committing ridiculously dumb penalties are akin to kids running in the hallways because the Principal and staff don't enforce any discipline.

Well we just agree to disagree...I'm sure he coaches lit into them at the half, but what u gonna do...bench the player? In the case of Manning if you do that then you jeopardize the success of the team by alot. You not gonna fine them for penalties, the NFLPA will be all over that...the leadership on O has to come from Schaub , on D from DeMeco. The coaches are not on the field

 

[DocBar]

OK Schaub, take care of business.

 

[Jottoz]

TD Steelers!

Sweet thanks Ref's and Manning now we have a game to watch!

 

[DexmanC]

That f-up by Manning to end the first half may be huge.

 

[Pantherstang84]

Ill say this, the pass defense is shaky, but I'm loving this run d.

The Steelers have figured that out.

 

[axman40]

Will the O answer back?

 

[Mr. Texan]

where are the holding calls on the steelers?

 

[gafftop]

I think we will see that play a few more times.

 

[srrono]

deja vu cant be happening again. can it?

 

[GP]

Good news: Manning's block keeps us in the lead.

Bad news: Manning's other block keeps us form having a bigger lead.

This is where we get to the nut cuttin', folks. Do we lay down and give up the game, or do we rise above it and play inspired football?

 

[mariowillshine15]

That f-up by Manning to end the first half may be huge.

Hold on let me take a Vitamin Duh. Ok go on.

 

[speedfreek]

we absolutely cannot go 3 and out. it will basically be last week all over again

TJ

 

[GP]

where are the holding calls on the steelers?

Only one, IIRC.

Apparently, only the Texans hold.

 

[gtexan02]

Hope the refs are happy. Should be 24-7

 

[axman40]

AJ right hamstring may not return

 

[TheMatrix31]

Now would be the obvious time for Schaub's Shitty Throw of the Game (tm)

 

[dream_team]

The Pitt OL is keeping the Texans in check, forcing Texans to blitz to get to Ben. Texans are getting to him, unfortunately Ben is eluding sacks and making plays.

 

[kiwitexansfan]

Now would be the obvious time for Schaub's Shitty Throw of the Game (tm)

But it's not the 4th quarter yet.

 

[Showtime100]

where are the holding calls on the steelers?

Exactly. I've defended the calls against us, but hells bells they haven't held?? I think they've been getting away with push-offs too on the cb's.

 

[gafftop]

Is it protect our lead time on offense. Do not over use Foster. How bad would it be to lose both Johnson and Foster in same game. Just the damn excuse to keep Kubiak another year.

 

[TheMatrix31]

But it's not the 4th quarter yet.

Doesn't particularly have to be.

 

[DocBar]

Holy crap!!! Covert the 3rd plaease

 

[gafftop]

Foster is not 100%

 

[TheMatrix31]

Dude, you can't throw a screen when there are no blockers there.

What is this playcalling
