Official Texans @ Giants Game Thread, 9/21/2014

[barrett]

What weapons do you think Eli has? Victor Cruz is the only skill guy on the roster who could start for a decent team. The rest of their WR core is totally unproven and average, their TEs are no-names (even though Donnell has at least caught it the last 2 weeks), and they can't run the ball (the starter is Jennings, the former Jags and Raiders backup). This is not a team with weapons.

I also don't think New York's D is better than Washington's. Washington held us to 10 on offense and then held JAX to 1o points and under 150 yards while recording 10 sacks. Meanwhile NY got beat by Drew Stanton who hadn't thrown a pass since 2011.

This Giants team is terrible. We can definitely lose this game, but if we do it will be all about our issues, not because NY is better than the teams we've faced.

I see the texans winning, and winning big.
I expect AJ to finally find the end zone.
I expect the defense to look even better than they have.

28-14

The sharps are pounding the Giants. The Giants are now the favorite by 1 to 2 points.

Likely due to Foster being inactive.

He wasn't inactive when I posted that at 2:21 am. No, I think they like the QB better and the desperation of NY..... It's interesting that the public likes the Texans but the big money is coming in on the Giants....

It would be a feather in the Texans cap if they can pull off the win anyway...

[Arky]

Texans win the toss and defer, Giants receiving the kickoff.....

Ball is downed in the end zone, touchback. Giants ball at their 20.

[Arky]

Pass to Randle gets 4. 2nd and 6 coming up.

Jennings for 5. Brings up 3rd and 1.

Jennings for about 4 more and the 1st down.

Jennings for 2. 2nd and 8 coming up.

Sack by Watt! Loss of 8. Brings up 3rd and 16.

Jennings gets about 7 yards back but the Giants have to punt.

Punt goes out of bounds inside the Texan 20. Texan's ball.

One reason the sharps are sharps is because they have ways of finding this stuff out before it hits the public.

Yep. And they're not always right, either. They are sharp because they always do better than Joe Public.

[Nconroe]

nice sack by MegaWatt , and then nice run by Bleu.

[Nconroe]

I guess not to worry, but Arian Foster out with a tweaked ham string.

See how it affects the play calling.

I'm thinking Texas 24-13, perhaps.

Inactives for both teams:

HOUSTON
RB Arian Foster
QB Tom Savage
NT Louis Nix III
WR DeVier Posey
OLB Jadeveon Clowney
FS Shiloh Keo
T Jeff Adams

NEW YORK
WR Odell Beckham Jr.
LB Jon Beason
LB Devon Kennard
T Charles Brown
DE Kerry Wynn
T James Brewer
DT Jay Bromley
