Whoever is #26 might as well skip the film sessions on that play. He totally whiffed on Taylor.

What in the world was Wilson doing? I have been saying it since this game started, if Ryans is not making the play, no one is. wow. The previous play I believe Adibi and Wilson ran into each other trying to tackle Harvin.

That was Eugene Wilson

Well at least Shaub is back out there.

That's a good drive down field to end the half. Maybe Kubiak's time management is getting better? Crap playcall before the FGA though.

who in the hell called that run play. Even if the Vikings were in prevent it wasn't like Slaton was gonna score. He would only have run out the clock.

Wow.

Nice return by AD.

Pass to David Anderson puts the ball at the Viking 44.

Nice pass to OD for about 15.

Slaton not much.

Texans to go for the FG (!) 4 secs left.

K Brown 46 yarder is good.

Vikings 17, Texans 10.

Halftime.

yeah, something positive to end the half.

Nice answer by the Texans with :30 left. I judge pre-season games by halftime score so, in my book, we lost even if we come back but it was a mixed bag tonight. Now we get to look at the scrubs in the second half.

At the half, Demeco 10 tackles next Adibi 2 tackles. Wow.

Cris Carter just called us the "Houston Titans".

I thought I was the only one who heard that.

Texans receive 2nd half kickoff and takeover at the 19.

Orlovsky in.

Pass to Leach for 2.

Slaton for 1.

Pass is good to DA for the 1st down at the 30.

Deep pass to AJ goes to the Viking 12!

Vikes challenge that AJ stepped out early and that looks to be the case.

Orlavsky looking good so far, keep it going guys.

Challenge rules the ball at the Viking 24.

Slaton takes dump off for 5.

Slaton for 1.

Orlovsky comes up 1 yd short via scramble...

Texans mull over going for it on 4th and 1.

I think they should go for it here. It's only pre-season and to convert here would be a good emotional lift.

Texans go for it.

Nice 2nd effort by C Brown gets the 1st down.

Deflected pass gets picked off. Vikes ball at the 4 yard line.

Favre is still in. Too bad about the pick. Never should have thrown it.

I'm still glad we got the first however. I think Chris Brown may be a valuable short yardage specialist.

Vikes penalized - ball back at the 2.

Taylor squirts out for about 5. 2nd and 7.

Offsides Vikes - half the distance. Ball at the 3.

Attaway Diles - stops Taylor on the sweep for minimal gain..

3rd and 9, Favre scrambles about and completes the pass for a 1st down at the 18.
