Week 18 Game Day: Texans vs Colts - Win or go Home

[ghostlight]

[JCTexan]

Cj solidified roty. Demeco should be coty

No doubt!

AFCSouth Champs baby


Even I it's only for a day.

…….don’t leave Caserio hanging like that, he should be near the top of the list for GM of the year.

 

[austins23]

Let’s go Tacks!!! Did I say that out loud?? I give a ****, i want a home playoff game!!!

 

[TexCanada]

I can’t think of a better franchise then the Colts to have to lose by a soul crushing, self-inflicted, last-second loss.

All we need is for the Jags to choke tomorrow. Hopefully, Vrabel thinks he’s coaching for his job in 2024.

 

[MEGA SWATT]

LFG. GO TEXANS!

 

[xtruroyaltyx]

Ripping the colts hearts out after all the years theyve done it to us..and in this fashion to keep them out of the playoffs when it was us or them... In their house...

Orgasmic.

 

[Pill]

Stroud 7/7 on winning drive and some of those throws were amazing.

Can’t forget about Caserio! Everyone deserves props even Tunsil and Desmond King after almost costing us the game. Playoff bound bby !!!!!

 

[santo]

Great win by the Texans. Rockets also beat the Bucks tonight.

You mean Hannah needs to win GM of the year.

Playoff scenarios after Saturday’s games:

CLE @ HOU
Jags lose or tie

HOU @ BUF
Jags win, Bills win

HOU @ KC
Jags win, Dolphins win

HOU @ MIA
Jags win, Dolphins tie

 

[Marcus]

My God! Are you kidding me?

This QB of ours is something. No Tank, no Noah Brown, no Robert Woods. Just something else.

 

[welsh texan]

I don’t know what we are going to do for a D line next week, Will Anderson was limping to the sideline, Jerry Hughes left, seems Greenard was a close call maybe they rush him back to play?

I don’t care to watch other teams in the playoffs, and I only watch Super Bowl for the commercials. Only one team I like to watch, and it’s Houston. Thanks for unexpectedly extending my season, keep it going

Hope, remain optimistic... except for me of course.

Ankle sprains don’t last forever, I’m assuming Will gets a lot better starting next week

Honestly I’m hoping for KC, but still so stoked we’re in the playoffs!

I have a very similar thing going on, I try not to criticise the players or the team and try to be positive during the game but I find the more pessimistic I am in the run up the better chance they have. Definitely got ahead of myself going into the Panthers and Jets games this season .

i think i got sand in my eye... we're going to the playoffs!

Just saw the interview with CJ and the sideline reporter….
He was “yes ma’am, no ma’am”
They could never win another game and I’m a complete and total fan! We got a good one guys

They don’t last forever if you rest them, I believe doc has made it clear that Anderson is worsening the injury by playing on it. It was clear with some of the select plays he was in that he was required tonight, he doesn’t show up in the box score but there was a huge difference in the play of the line when he was in vs when he wasn’t, so i get them taking the gamble, and he’s got till the spring to heal up after. I don’t know if he’s going to see the field next week or what state he’s going to be in if he does. Greenard I need to catch up on where he’s up to in the injury thread but I don’t doubt they will rush him back if at all possible regardless of what’s best for him. I do guess in Greenard’s position he will be more likely to be cautious going into contract negotiations, however.

High ankle sprains he keeps tweaking won't heal fast. I think we get this WA with no rest. Hoping Greenard can be able to go 90% next week. Give us til Sunday please! we may get an extra day rest with today being Saturday

 

[austins23]

For 80 something yards
That throw to Collins was the game clincher on that drive

 

[gwallaia]

Thank God the missed XP did not come back to haunt us

 

[FireBOB]

What a fantastic team win, real next man up attitude, and CJ just so composed, looking like a storied veteran. So proud.

 

[TheRealJoker]

This game was like the entire season. Not always pretty and too close for comfort. But the good guys prevailed once again!

Every team is playing sudden death starting next week. Texans got started a week early. And this playoff mode Texans team has some fight!

 

[Jackraven]

From what I can tell on our message boards, most Ravens’ fans wanted to see your team win. Again, congratulations!!!!

 

[TxnsJuggernaut1]

It’s called WINNING. get used to it. Negative Nancy’s go to your corner

There is a method to my madness.

 

[TheRealJoker]

Gotta say on that final Colts drive:

Both Johnathan Taylor and Will Anderson were playing hurt and gutting through their injuries. Great leadership and toughness shown by both leaders. Wish the Texans had Taylor (instead of taking Blacklock) but then again that butterfly effect would probably have OB as the owner by now.

They could have just folded after the way the Colts offense came out in the second half and ran roughshod all over our defense but they are a reflection of their head coach!

Expect more negative from me next week. There is a method to my madness!

[newjagscity]

Congrats on a great win, Texans fans. Hopefully we join you tomorrow, but we are pretty banged up at some critical positions.

Huge fan of CJ as a player, but even more as a person.

 

[welsh texan]

I can’t help but be excited by this team, there is still so many easy gains to be had, the rebuild is far from complete, yet they’ve been really exciting to watch, the scheme gets the job done and has won the number of games it should have, would be very easy to see where only incremental improvement gives us 4 more wins this season than what we got (First Colts game, ATL, Panthers, Jets, all should have been wins) This team is built to be really really good if they can continue to draft well and spend their FA money wisely.
Who knows what happens in the playoffs, I don’t like the look of playing any of the available teams and yet I’m sure none of them will look forward to dealing with CJ’s incredible arm and play recognition.

 

[austins23]

Sure would like to know why Cashman went over the top instead of under cutting it on that 4th down play

 

[edo783]

I can't say for sure but on that toss to the sidelines that CJ threw and Collins caught. I think CJ was trying to just throw it away and Collins was able to get over to it and catch it. I doubt they will ever say that was it but, that's my suspicion.

That would have been grounding if were.

Is it to early to sign him to an extension? Seriously though going from Watson to CJ is like night and day. Best part is not only does CJ seem like a better person, not a high bar I know, but he is a better QB. Win-Win.

 

[TxnsJuggernaut1]

I love how our team and teams like the Browns and Lions are in the playoffs. Very happy about our Texans! What a great season it was! As far as anybody laughing at me for looking forward to more football in the Spring/Summer months and rooting for the UFL and the Roughnecks, "laugh if you will," but I am glad to have more football!

As of now it is all about the Texans! Go Texans!

Back when the Chargers were in San Diego and had their own official message board, there was a guy who posted under the username “Boltcorpse”. He employed a similar strategy as yours which he labelled as “reverse mojo”….

On the post-game show, Nico said it was a scramble drill. He saw the ball in the air and thought Stroud put enough air under it that he could go get it.

While I generally agree with your post, as a Baltimore Ravens fan I must object to the inclusion of the Browns in your list of teams that you are happy to see in the playoffs. That would be like yours truly mentioning that I would be happy to see the Jags win your division should they defeat the Titans tomorrow…..
