Whew, great game for AJ.

And rest of team, defense sure batted down and tipped a lot of passes.

[HPF Bob]

A lot of fantasy players must have sat Schaub and Johnson this week....

[TheMatrix31]

Wow.

.....wow.

That was 2009/2010-esque.

Doesn't 527 passing yards match Warren Moon's Oilers record vs KC back in the early 90s? Moon's was not an OT game.

[WMH]

Wonder why Mularky went for it on 4th and 10, from our side of the field. Questionable call, IMO.

But, I'm sure glad he did it.

Pretty good passing day, and we almost lost.
Had to look this up.

Schaub completed 43 of 55 passes and threw five touchdowns.

His total of 527 yards tied former Oilers quarterback Warren Moon as the second-best in NFL, behind only Norm Van Brocklin's 554 yards for the Los Angeles Rams in 1951.

So Houston has 2 of top 3 passing yardage days in NFL up to now.

And while on records,
Andre Johnson had 14 catches for a career-high 273 yards — the ninth most in NFL history.

Moon even sat out at the end of the 4th quarter of his game. He choose not to reenter the game to go after the record.

But Moon's game was a blow out in Houston's favor from the start, and Schaub and AJ had to carry the Texans to victory today.
