Official Texans vs. Colts Game Thread, 9/12/2010

Well, it should be fun, but it's just one game of a long season. My prediction is that win or lose, the fans will overreact. It happens every year.

What I'm looking for from the Texans today is a running game that looks better than last year's, and a pass rush that is better than last year's. If we get that, I won't be too disappointed even if we lose.

I don't know about the pass rush, but I think we may legitimately have a two headed monster with Foster and Slaton. As long as Kubiak is creative with his playcalling.

It truly is just one of 16 but man:

a. A chance to beat the Colts

b. division game - golden opportunity to improve on last year's poor record

c. a chance to start the season with bang (or a thud)

I'll use the old standby here: win the turnover battle, win the game.

Just please don't let it come down to a field goal, heh.

I would like to see Barwin and Okoye in the backfield today in order to feel good about the defensive line. TFL, or Sacks, or Hits on the QB would be nice considering what we have spent in terms of assets on the D-Line. Otherwise, we will NEED to use another 1st round draft pick or high FA signing on the DL again.

Love that 3-and-out baby....let's get seven out of this.

Come on red zone O

I hate settling for three after stopping them on three-and-out.
