This made me laugh so hard that Dr. Pepper came out my nose. Thanks I needed a good laugh.

Well that was an ugly suckker if I ever saw one. Who didn't throw in the towel on the Texans today ?
So are we about done with the Case K. experiment already ? Now lets start TJ next Sunday so we can clear the Texans DC @ QB for next year.

Spent more time with my eyes on NE-Miami than I did the Texans' game but they just had nothing, as you kind of expected being the game was in Indy but, still, it would have been nice to see some better effort.

Texastros have now lost 12 straight. The only team that could possibly keep them from the overall #1 now is the Redskins (who gave their #1 to the Rams so they can't even suck to get the first overall choice).

Watching that goddam Oilers 1993 thing that was on tv the other day got me remembering that I stupidly traveled to Indy for the first game of the following year to see the Colts blow out the Oilers 45-21. I remember the Colts scoring 45. I don't recall the Oilers scoring anything. They did, though, apparently. After being down 42-0. Hey, they scored 21 points in the fourth quarter! Take THAT, Kubiak!

Houston pro football is snakebit.

Anyway, no, the Texans are going to get abused like an Allston alter boy tomorrow.

Well, I was wrong

Are they still snakebit, or are they just that bad?

They flat out suck.

Bad thing is, based on their post game comments, they are finally getting over their delusions and realizing it. Next week is going to be bad.....very bad.....

Right now, they're just that bad. They gave up after the Patriots game. They have a lot of scrubs in right now or at least players performing like scrubs. It doesn't mean they weren't snakebit earlier when they were losing by seven or less week after week.

[popanot]

I didn't think it was humanly possible to have an uglier loss than the one at JAX but the Texans managed to pull it off today.

[HPF Bob]

The Texans are so bad they may wind up getting a London game.
