Official Texans vs. Rams Game Thread, 10/13/2013

I'm going with Michael Brockers.

Kubiak wins the coin toss and elects to receive (like he always does, and like most good coaches don't)... Kubiak's thinking is "Let's get Matty out there quick to start this off and get those cobwebs worked out" (that's opposed to the logical thinking of having the D open things up and letting an already frustrated and ticked-off crowd settle in, or better yet, the D making a big play and getting the crowd fired up)...

On the ensuing kickoff, the Texans are pinned down inside the 15 because Marciano's crew can't block and no one bothered to tell KMart not to carry the ball out from 8-yards deep in the endzone...

The Offense comes onto the field amidst a chorus of boos (let's get this started right, Gary)...

First down, Foster for no gain... Second down, Schaub drops back and feels the pressure (when there really is none)... He then throws an off-balance back-leg pass that bounces off Duane Brown's helmet and into the loving arms of Michael Brockers who then scampers untouched into the endzone... 0-7...

The crowd is stunned with silence where only a baby's cry can be heard in the distance...
