Fun Facts about the Texans

[rayzor]

i like our offense against the texan defense.

i don't like our defense against the texan offense.

i don't like the texans ability to put games away and our inability to do the same.

This. I hope for the best, but now expect the worst.

i'm trying not to get upset over the W-Ls this year and instead focusing on the bigger picture. it helps cut down on the pepto-bismol drinking.

If the defense can hold Arian Foster hostage like they have the past 2 RB's, and Cam doesn't turn the ball over. We've got a phenomenal chance. Because, last time I checked TJ Yates is not Matt Ryan. I know its a bunch of obvious statements. I wish it was that easy.

YOu might hold Foster but you forgot about Ben Tate and Derrick Ward...arguably the best stable of RBs in the NFL. Foster will go over 1000 this weekend against the panthers and Tate probably will go over 1000 yds next thursday in Indy. I like Stewart and Williams but they are no where close. I used to think the Panthers had the best tandem in the league.

Houston's D is overrated. Not saying they aren't good but statistcally they look better than they are.

They also flat out gamble on D which leaves them open for chunks......Atl just whiffed on some plays but Hou was begging to get hurt w/ the big play.

Haha your kidding right? you are funny. The defense is good because Wade has a nice rotation and he keeps his guys fresh...we have depth for the first time ever.

I remember the last Texans game...we let freakin' OLD Ahmad Green run all over us

Yes thats the one good game Ahman had in 2 years with us. Andre really toasted your secondary in that game though and second half we took Demarcus Faggins off of Steve Smith and put Dunta Robinson on him and pretty much shut smitty down.

Double Trouble is still the best duo in the league......Texans are just leaning on their great duo. Silly to say Stewart/Williams are no where close.....NFL record books when they are leaned on would argue otherwise

again, i didn't say there weren't good.....said they were overrated.

Bottom line is you can take 2 indentical defenses.....have one play the top 3 offenses in the NFL and one play the bottom 3. One of those statistically will look superior. Texans D has benefited from weak offensive opponents

[Montsta]

Fun Fact: Charles Godfrey has a Texans logo tattooed on his hand. So maybe Yates will throw him the ball?

We've definitely benefited from week offenses. But we've held their production to less than they've been able to produce vs their average. Check it out, in our games against every team this year, the opposing offenses have produced less than their average.

I don't mean to brag, most of this is just as surprising to me as anyone, but it is what it is.

Our only true test though was New Orleans.... too early in the season to be definitive though. If we played that game again, I'm sure the outcome would be different.

Cam scares me though. He's an anomaly. Anyone in Houston tells you we're not worried about "needing" to score 30 points is a closet Panther's fan.

Here's to you getting you're butts spanked.

hey, I said in every post the Houston D was legit.....they just look better b/c of weak offensive opponents. They are a top D...but the #1 rank is something they hold only b/c of weak opponents.

If you played NO again.....with a weak ground game and TJ Yates at QB. I think the NO offense gets more chances and therefore puts up more production on Houston.

I got so lucky this week. First round of the playoffs and my starting running back is playing the worst DL in the league. I hate to root against us, but I wouldn't mind Arian Foster scoring 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 times :D

so if Carolina did shut him down......you would be upset.

[Panthro]

Arian will be benched. Tate is the rb to own on Sunday
