Official Texans vs. Falcons Fake Game Thread, 08/16/2014
 

Just one more day and our next measuring stick on progress and team discipline will occur.

Hopefully we go down from 13 penalties to around 9 or less.

Hopefully we can atleast create as many turnovers as we give up.

Hopefully we score more than 0, 20 would be nice.

Hopefully the kick returners get past 15 yard line, maybe 25 or more.

And hopefully the DB's hold Atlanta to below 70% pass completion rate.

Just improve, if we win, not required but a nice trend to start sooner than latter.

Texans are a 3 pt favorite. Eheh. Problem is, they'll have to score to cover the 3 pts.... :p

That's just wrong, true, but oh so wrong.

:)

I just want to see Clowney make some unreal play then turn to the Falcons bench and say "y'all coulda had me, fools".

Did the Falcons pass on Clowney?

There was speculation Texans might trade down out of first pick .

Sounds like Cushing, Foster, Johnson out of tonights game.

I know there was speculation, but #1 overall picks don't go around with a chip on their shoulder about other teams not drafting them. The very first team with a chance to take him took him. End of story in terms of the draft.

I hope he makes some unreal play then gets ready to do it again.

I think I just saw Clowney point at the Falcons bench and say, "y'all coulda had me, fools"... ;)

Clowney has had several nice plays.

Now offense doing a nice drive.

Fitz showing off his speed gets the Texans inside the 10.

Blue runs for about 10 - inside the 5. 1st and goal.

Blue to the 1.

Blue punches it in. Touchdown!

Texans 7, Falcons 0

1:19 left in the 1st quarter.

Good drive.

Fitz missed Hopkins up the seam on one of those dumps to the TE, but at least he didn't throw it to a white jersey.

Progress.....

I really like the way Blue runs.

And nice stop on kickoff by Victorian.

We could go 0-16 and I think I'd be fired up watching Clowney every week.

Savage in at QB. Hmmmm.....

Jeff Triplette's (sp?) crew really picking on the Falcons....

Savage in the game. Keep fingers crossed.

Either Roddy and Julio have regressed or our corners are really pumped up...

Or they are just not playing hard

Texans getting the flags, now.... Falcons have three 1st downs from penalties.

Texans have 7 penalties. Make that 8.

1:39 left in the half.

Short pass to Hester goes for the 12 yard TD. Tied up.

Texans 7, Falcons 7

1:32 left in the half.

Starting to be too many penalties on defense and DJ.

These flags, on both sides, are ridiculous.

Get ready for 3.5/4 hour games if they keep this up.
