Official Texans @ Dolphins Game Thread, 12/27/2009

[HPF Bob]

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?

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.
