Texans vs Pats - DawgTalkers.net

Let's go Texans!!!!! Biggest underdawgs of the weekend!!!!

I just hope this game is a good as the 3 previous this weekend.

Hoping the Texans do the unthinkable. Pretty tired of the Brady-Belichick Era at this point. Gonna have to end sometime this decade.

However, realistically thinking... Texans might get destroyed here.

I'd be cool with a Texans blowout

but don't think that'll happen.

I think the Texans can win....I am pulling for them.

Rooting for Houston but it's brutal trying to stop Brady.

Nice run by Daniel Manning to start!

FGs are not going to win this game Texans!

Nice stop on D on the Pats' first drive, Texans. Better have that intensity here!

this is what the texans offense has done the past month though - good between the 20s... and can't finish drives - have to finish them today

Personal Foul, 15 yards on the Defense. Touching Tom Brady.

One of the reasons why I'll be happy when the Brady-Belichick Era ends.

Texans appear more focused here compared to last time, but that Goal Line D ain't gonna cut it. Need to prepare for those quick snaps.

Houston needs to score or this one might be about over.

You can't spot NE double digit halftime leads and have any realistic shot at winning.

Not that it would've made a difference because it was 4th and 6, but its still a 5-yard penalty for rolling on the ground under a punter who hasn't regained his balance after the punt. Not sure what that ref was thinking.

That ending was critical for Houston.

It's an entirely different ball game now

Houston got really, really lucky there.

Patriots just have too many offensive options.

To beat them you have to destroy their defense and force New England to punt a few times

Man, these officials have been blowing calls in Houston's favor all game long.

Matt Schaub is a nice QB to have when you're trying to make the playoffs.

Not so much when you're supposed to be a Super Bowl contender.

turn out the lights...

Matt Hassleback 2.0

But how many playoff win does Logan Mankins and Vince Wilfork have?

Gronk refractured his arm

Crap

Great... looks like I'm cheering for the NFC this year in the SB...

Beyond tired of Pretty Boy Brady, The Hoodie and the Cheatriots.

It's self-explanatory why I hate the Ratbirds.

Yep. I'm gonna have to root for the 49ers/Falcons in SB 47.

i'm rooting for a 2nd year QB who took over as a starter halfway through the year over an established veteran and refused to give back the job to defeat Belichick and Brady.

love the parallel.

I loved Belichick when he was here and I root for him every year because it just shows how stupid Modell actually was in moving our team.
Nothing will warm my heart like BB talking out the art patched ratbirds on the cusp of a SB.
This has the feel to me of the Bettis year, Ray gets to go out on top because the NFL and the Refs demand it.

BINGO!!!!!

Doesn't matter. Patriots will crush Baltimore.

On paper I would agree x1K however what the NFL wants sometimes is not what should happen. what about that a defender tries to SOLO tackle someone and causes a fumble yet we get.
Forward progress was stopped? non reviewable play. Houstons ball.

Plus there were a LOT of shady calls and even one incredibly shady review in the Broncos Ravens game. Combining that with the refs of the 2006 SB admitting their poor calls affected the game turnout does make one wonder.

one incredibly shady review

I was seriously expecting them to overturn the Stokley catch later in the game...

The only reason they didn't is because then it REALLY would of been obvious...

I'm with you there, but that one review of a catch (I believe it was by Boldin) where the catch call was confirmed was just horrific.

So...are you Dawgs telling me that you believe the NFL to be nothing more than the WWE with helmets and unis?

Just askin'....

When certain things are effected by the ONLY outside human aspect of the game (Refs) which make the game go in a certain way more consistantly than the other..

What am I supposed to think?

Do I think theres some grand conspiracy? Of course not, because someone would of been outed by now...

Do I think Refs favor certain teams/players, of course...

I think that describes the NBA
