2-0 and in sole possession of first place in the division. After 2-14 last year, this is a far better start than what I expected. For me the best thing about today was that O'Brien had 'em up and ready to play at the very beginning, they didn't show up flat with a lack of focus. Now that's impressive.

Bullock was money. I'm not sure I ever thought I'd say that.
And Newton looks like a different player. They were talking about this a bit on the radio postgame - they can't come right out and say that Kubiak and his staff sucked ass but they came as close as they could. They stressed the improvement in the positional coaching. I really wonder what might have happened three or four years ago if the team had had a competent, NFL-caliber coaching staff. Maybe I'll also grow a mustache to celebrate the arrival of just such as staff a-la McNair. HPF Bob of course would in turn shave his off. I'm game if Bob's game.

But none of this is important. What matters is the Texans are 2-0, both teams being ones who did not have good passing offenses. We now fly to New Jersey to play Eli Manning and the Giants. Eli has definitely regressed the past 18 months, in part because his o-line looks terrible, but he still has some weapons to throw to. It will be our biggest test yet but not something I'm certain we can't win. These Texans largely are not beating themselves but our secondary hasn't really been tested. When those PIs and defensive holdings return, we'll find out what the Texans are made of.

 O'Brien and staff are getting improved production out of previous hot messes. Brooks Reed, the right side of the OL, fat aggie, special teams... Granted, the Texans have played two of the hottest messes in the NFL in the Redskins and the Raiders, but still, this was a convincing win on the road. Just please stay healthy. TIA

And with talent that made people say we were about like JAX, we have looked light years better. I don't say all that to disagree, I just think those wins were about more than level of competition. I can remember times under Kubiak we were so talented at every spot but QB that we beat almost all of the teams we were supposed to. I can remember just being terrible under Capers. But in our short history have we ever been a team that overachieved? Since Head Coach is right up there with QB for the most importance in winning in the NFL, I am more encouraged by being well coached for once than I am discouraged about any of the dozen serious issues this roster still has.

Game balls
- The entire Oline, not one sack in two games - Arian Foster - two games with 53 carries and over 100 yds each game, which also is assisted by the Oline - Kareem Jackson , with the game changing interception when Raiders were driving. Way to go guys, lots of teamwork by everyone everywhere. And it is nice to win.
