Default No Texans Thread This Year?

I am disappoint ls1tech... But in all seriousness, they are looking pretty damn good this year! JJ Watt is in full on beast mode, same with Owen Daniels imo.

^^^Agreed. Just waiting for a real team to show up so I can gauge if we are SB ready. Not gonna get too excited when the Texans put a beat down on scrub teams like Miami and Jacksonville, they are expected to win those games. If they are ready to make a serious run at a championship, they shouldn't be excited about beating them either.

The Broncos, Ravens, Packers, and Patriots later down the schedule will definitely show us if they are ready to go. They have all the pieces they need to beat these teams.

Agree on Watt. Don't agree on OD. The dude dropped 2 easy passes yesterday.

Watt came in looking quicker this year. Seems to move around faster around the line.
i hope the team stays healthy this year. They seem very confident.

True, but he's also averaging the most yards per pass of any of the Texans receivers at 13.4, has gone 10 for 134 to AJ's 11 for 140.

Is this a joke? Any Texans fan, any REAL Texans fan, will say NO. This will be a good game.

If I were Manning I would be worried about J.J. Watt putting him back into retirement...

I was thinking the same thing last night. J.J. Watt has enough picks as it is. Those 4 picks Manning had yesterday, it almost seemed like the Falcon defenders were the intended receiver. Watt would easily double that if Manning has an encore performance. This is Manning we are talking about though, that game was a freak accident, the exception not the rule. He will be ready for us Sunday.

Also anxious but the texans have the better team no doubt. That isn't the old manning IMO. His ***** don't have the zip they used to have, and he can't throw the deep ball effectively without the arm strength he used to have. He's still smart, we just have to stick to the game plan and we should win this game by 7-10 pts.

LMAO, good catch, didnt even think about that.

What I was getting at was a Texans fan who knows the team, their stats, capabilties, plays, defensive schemes, doesn't get too excited over beating scrub teams, etc. would not be nervous to face the teams I listed.

I dont think 2 games is enough to make that assessment. Either way, I don't want us to be the ones to find out if "he still has it". Agree with your point spread though.

Keep thinking because you are a "real fan" you somehow have superiority over others who watch it as pure entertainment.
Wow, you completely missed the point of what I was trying to say, but that's ok.

You sure are getting pretty defensive over a comment in a thread. Wonder what you over compensating for?? Nvm, none of us want to know.

We're all Texans fans guys. Chill out.

I expect Sunday's game to be a close one. After Monday night's game, I'm sure Wade Phillips is doing some master planning to attack and contain Manning. We have to make him hurry up and work to collapse the pocket. When he was hurried Monday, things didn't go well. I hadn't watched any of his performances this year before Monday night. I was very surprised to see his passes wobbling without the usual velocity. I just hope he's not able to shake the rust off in a matter of 6 days.

One thing I did not see in our game last Sunday was the old reliable bootleg. I'd like to see it 2 or 3 times this week. One thing Kubiak can't do is put it in neutral if we have a decent lead at halftime. Manning can and will come back on you if you do this. Seal the deal and burry them if you can.

Congrats to JJ Watt. He's this week's AFC Defensive Player of the Week
