Official Texans vs. Steelers Thread, 9/07/2008
 

Gameday!!! Here's hoping Richard Smith can devise a plan that actually works and keeps the Steelers off-balance and out of the endzone. And here's hoping Slaton is everything we've been dreaming for and takes it to the house - preferably on numerous occasions! Oh, and everyone gets out healthy. Go Texans!!!!

Ah, yes, the long wait is over......

As Mills Lane would say, "Let's get it on!"...

looks like CBS will preview the game here in a couple minutes, as of 11:04. looking forward to it. Ok, all they covered is RB questions for both teams.

Man, I'm so pumped to be able to finally watch the NFL in HD at home. I can see the holding calls and the blown coverages much better now.

Good to have you aboard, Bob.

Let's go Texans!

Did ya'll see the inactive list for Texans - FS Dominique Barber, LB Xavier Adibi, G Kasey Studdard, OT Rashard Butler, DT Tim Bulman, DE Earl Cochran, DT Frank Okam, DB Eugene Wilson.

we won the toss and receiving

4th and 1. Now that takes balls! ...... BS!!!!!!

I LOVE Kubiak's balls.

EDIT: TERRIBLE spot!

Either the CBS yellow line is off or the Texans just got hosed twice on the spot.

Two bad spots in a row..

F'ing refs... !! They gave Anderson a crappy spot, and then totally screwed us with that last spot. Ridiculous!

Yeah, it BETTER be challenged.

You knew the ref wouldn't overrule himself.

Ridiculous.

EDIT: Our defense looks horrendous. They're gonna pass all day.

Bad enough to have to play the STeelers in Pgh, but to have to fight the refs too, is plain BS!

Steelers 7, Texans 0

Ahman already out?

There he is........

Wtf??!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, offensive line, ITS THE REGULAR SEASON!

I guess that doesnt look to good EWinston. After your big deal and all. Shaub just got drilled the previous play. And you let a Farrior come full steam. Not looking good.

We need a stop here it this could get real ugly. Even uglier than it is now.

My bad. I should have picked the Steelers in the suicide contest. I picked the Lions and they are already behind, 14-0.

EDIT: Now, 21-0. To the Falcons. To a rookie QB making his first NFL start.

That's a BAD PI call.

These refs suck.

mario is lookin really good

Hate to say it, but it looks like we're in for an old fashion ass kicking today.

Our D is getting torched.

I didnt expect us to win. But I didnt expect us to get blown out either. I wanna see DRyans wipe that smile off Hines Ward's face.

JesusHC... The middle is wide open for the Steelers. They could kill us day with that TE screen.

If they can keep it close, I like our chances in the 2nd half.....

Watch Pitt just burn some clock here....

Reeves missed the fumble.....

This is sad. We have no clue whatsoever on D.

Um, sorry. A draw play is not "smash mouth". It works, though. 14-0 Pissburgh.

Pa-thetic.

Maybe we need to get our asses beat to wake up for the season. Shame that that even has to be done, but maybe thats what this is.

The offense needs to get in a groove here, although I'd like a quick hit for my mind to rest.

We are being outcoached on defense. Willie parker asside from the touchdown runs. He is averaged about 2 yards per carry. The run defense is doing really well. Big Ben is carving us up

He always seems to be the main focus of a bad play. Scrub.

F'ing INT. This is getting embarrassing.

It's too early in the season for this crap.

Guess we'll be drafting another d-lineman with our first round pick. :rolleyes:

Big Ben to Smiley Face - 6 pts.

Steelers 21, Texans 0

How about someone in the secondary?

Our defense is seriously being outcoached.
