You may notice it is Quessenberry and Brooks as the first team OGs. Newton's already given up a sack. Now the Saints get an 80-yd TD drive on two plays. They can score quickly. 10-7 Texans 2nd.

The guards look fine. Newton looks horrible. I've been hoping this RT problem would sort of fix itself but that doesn't seem to be happening.

Schaub just doesn't seem to be "accurate" any more... Completion % is always OK, but so many passes are always just a little off making the receiver do flips to make the catch....

I thought Schaub has looked very good but been let down by his receivers too often. Martin may be a bust.

Bullock starting to look pretty good. Tate and Johnson too.

Wonder who second RT in the game will be?

Saints waste no time getting down the field - with a PI on Harris along the way. 8-yard pass to Tanner for the TD.

Saints 24, Texans 16

14:08 left in the 3rd quarter.

I'm happy to see that kick coverage, secondary play and red zone defense are all in mid-season form.

Texans drive down but (Karim) can't punch it in from the 1 on 4th down. Score remains:

Saints 24, Texans 16

7:58 left in the 3rd quarter.
