How in the F can a ref standing right there miss that?

I hate to complain about the refs but that PI call was more of the home team bullshit we've seen all year. I have no great love for KJ but that was disgusting.

Glad Decker had a brain fart.

Decker fields the punt and returns it to the 14 yard line of the Broncos.

Pass to Decker complete to the 30.

Manning spikes it with 3 seconds left.

Pass is complete, Broncos try to lateral but goes nowhere..... Game Over.....

Just caught up on DVR....

I am shocked there wasn't a full-out brawl in this one. (a) I am a little disappointed the Texans didn't retaliate after the two rough hits on Schaub, and (b) the referees should have possibly considered an ejection somewhere between the stretch where Holliday was creamed on that punt and Schaub's ear was sliced off.

You know, smacking another team's defenseless punt returner should cost a team a lot more than a 15-yard penalty. Consider him a specialist, like a kicker or punter... I almost think it might not be a bad strategy to just wallop a great returner in the 1st quarter to knock him out of the game if it only costs 15 yards.

And that PI at the end of it was of course total hometown, Peyton slobbering BS. That's why you need a 2-TD lead on this fool in the fourth quarter. Just disgusting.

Watt was amazing, again. Kept asking myself several times where the heck Connor Barwin was though. He seems to run himself out of plays too often.

I thought the receivers all did a great job today. Schaub's fantasy owners will like his totals, and he was valiant to stay in the pocket on some of those throws (...and underthrows, ahem), but the TEs/WRs were wonderful.

The defense bottled up their running game effectively, making them a one-trick team. Barrett and Chuck are absolutely correct that the receivers (with the exception of Stokely who is ancient) are not good route runners. Demaryious Thomas even admitted in August that he never learned to run routes for Tebow.A poor fit to work with Manning.

Houston's pass defense was very solid. As for not catching INT's, my response is always "that's why we put you on defense, son".

Regarding retaliation, the Texans *in their history* have never retaliated. They didn't retaliate when Drayton Florence cheap-shotted Schaub while playing against the Chargers. They didn't retaliate when Jason Allen cheap-shotted Schaub in the knee. Why would this occasion be any different?

Bottom line, we got a win and almost everyone came out of it still in one piece. We're the only 3-0 team in our conference and we get the Titans next week to go 4-0 as long as we bring the same intensity.

We also got some contributions from Martin for the first time which gives opponents something else to worry about and we added the slow white boy deep post to the playbook which works if you only try it once a lunar eclipse.

I appreciate the extra credit but I was merely echoing barrett's earlier point.
