And I know you don't like this answer but here it is again: they didn't think there was a chance it could reviewed. They didn't think think there was a chance it could be reviewed and overturned in favor of the Colts.

This was a red flag thrown by the other team. The other team throwing a red flag hasn't been a "consistent problem" to my recollection. With the Texans, the problems in the past have been when we have thrown the red flag. In the past, I think we've all seen Kubiak throw the red flag and know that there wasn't a prayer of overturning the play.

IMO, up until the Colts game, challenges haven't been an issue this year. I couldn't find any stats on replay challenges but the Texans haven't had that many challenges this year. They've had at least one maybe two successful challenges this year, so my inference is that (up until the Colts game) they were getting better at it....

“You've got six guys in the booth,” Kubiak said. “Headset-wise, you're hooked into just certain people, but I want them all to look. I want to hear everybody's opinion — the guys on the field, the guys in the booth. But ultimately it's my decision, so I've got to listen and go from there.”
