Once again

Listening to the game on theticket.com

For some reason my girlfriend is kind of understanding about my need to spend Saturday Night on my computer listening to a Preseason game.

I had to promise we would make a social showing at Hooters after the game.

Oh Darn.

You find out life's this game of inches, so is football. Because in either game - life or football - the margin for error is so small.

as bad as this game seems, like they just said on the radio the only difference in the game is special teams.
we give up a 91yrd punt return & gramatica misses an extra point, otherwise this is a tie game. also as far as the run defense goes outside of the 46yrd run by green they only have 61yds on 17 carries which is about 3.5 yds per carry.

If ifs and but's were candy and nuts

then we would all have a merry christmas.

You find out life's this game of inches, so is football. Because in either game - life or football - the margin for error is so small.

Texans have a good Defensive line

3 first round picks will do that

texans team

this team actually looks like maybe it's starting to go
in the right direction. they finally unload david carr that huge stiff & they pick up ahman green & i also like their tight end owen daniels. they've also done a real good job with drafting on defense the past 2 or 3 years with dunta robinson, demeco ryans, mario williams & a. okoye.

Or......

They are pumped up to beat the Cowboys.

Remember, they won their Super Bowl in 2002 in the first game of the season, and went 4-12 overall.

And They Led 6-3 at the Half Last Year

Before we brushed them aside in the second half. So maybe the "getting pumped up inferiority complex" has some merit.

agree

they definitely took this game more seriously than we did, but i do think they have made some strides, although not enough to compete in the afc.

Run D

They got over a hundered yard rushing tonight. Not sure how worried I should be yet about the Run Defense, but I didn't see anything that inspired me tonight, that's for sure.

Good thing we got 2 first picks next year

One will most probably be used on a corner if one is available.

Geez. Not a good night.

by Philosopher on Aug 25, 2007 9:46 PM CDT reply actions

rb

it's nights like tonight that reinforce the idea of taking a rb with that 1st pick from cleveland (darren mcfadden). i was hoping we wouldn't need it & could use the high pick on a great corner, but you can almost guarantee the 1st 2 picks next year will be a rb & a corner or atleast it should be. it will be interesting to see what the cowboys do with barber & jones because both can leave via free agency & barber's agent is drew rosenhaus. can't see the cowboys paying alot of money to either one of these guys.

I COULDN'T CATCH THE GAME (FLORIDA)

I wasn't able to catch the game but tried to keep track on NFL.Com. It didn't seem like the defense played like they have been the last few games, and while I don't think Tony Romo looked too bad statistically, I have to wonder if he didn't struggle because of the lack of a running game. Can anyone fill me in, and let me know what happened?
