If you're in the Houston area and the Texans win this game, you may want to keep it on CBS after the game and root for the Eagles to beat the Broncos.....

Dolphins win the flip and defer - Texans to receive.

JJ brings the kickoff back to the 24.

Pass to AJ good for 13.

AJ catches the WR screen and turns it into 25. Flag on the play - offsides defense declined. Ball at the Dolphin 38.

Foster for about 4.

Foster for about 3 more. Brings up 3rd and 4.

Flip pass to C Brown only gets 1. Texans to go for the FG.

49 yard attempt is good!

Chris Brown did a good job getting the ball back into FG range. Texans take the early lead but they squandered a good opportunity by running the ball twice and leaving a predictable third down situation.

Questionable play call on third down running east-west, beautiful play call on fourth down with a quick slant to the best receiver in the league. Beautifully led ball, perfect play call. I'd rather have seen that on third down, but I'll happily take in on fourth down. How about a TO here?

[chuck]

What kind of game would it be without a brain dead special teams penalty? Two on the same idiot. I can't wait until next year when he's no longer a member of the team.

Ok, this is a decent start... need four quarters today, boys.

I liked seeing Dunta trying to rip that ball away from the receiver. Seemed like a possible replay sitch, but Kubiak kept the flag in his pocket.

DeMeco is on fire.
