[Nconroe]

Sure nice to see Bullock starting to nail his FG.

[BigBull]

I know I should be happy with the Texans being up 10-0, but with the field position they've had they should be up 21-0. I think this will come back to haunt them.

That int by Keenum was a horrible throw. Each week I realize more and more how sad the qb position is on the Texans.

[Nconroe]

The problem. Was Keenum held on to the ball to long and got hit while throwing.

Come on Texans and defense. Trying to think positive.

I thought overall Keenum doing good today.
