Early game jitters seem to be in effect. Even Walters dropped an easy pass.

Gee, what a novel concept. Use tight ends to be a security blanket for a shaken rookie.

The one thing we could ill afford to do was turn the ball over...and we did it twice...both of which turned into points for the Ravens...

It's going to take a HUUUUUUUGGGGE play to quiet this crowd...

On 3rd and 7, Yates can't find a receiver and throws it away. Texans to go for the FG.

Rackers 28-yarder is good but flag on Dreessen for offsides -5. Bring it back.
