i was thinking that since kubiak was "evaluating everyone" last week, flat out benching schaub destroys all kinds of confidence/loyalties/so on, schaub was present and in uniform, and that a flu bug popping in to say hello the night before the game all smelled a little fishy. i guess i should just ask if sage/texans win yesterday would sage keep the job? or was he really just playing as the backup to an indisposed starting qb?

to be honest, the texans were running almost at will and with kubiak's mind on running the ball (or so he says) i'm surprised the ball left any hands in the 4th. ahman green even showed up and earned about 1/4th of his paycheck...slaton broke another big one....

how did we lose? that has to be the only scenario that the colts' could've come back. hundreds of scenarios could've played out a texans' win and ONE played out for the colts. sick.

Ugh, yeah, you are what your record is, and this is an 0-4 team, no two ways about it, but damn if a 2-2 record with another four of five at home couldn't have been right there for them. It's bad enough being 0-4, but it hurts worse knowing this team is 0-3 in the division already, too.

Next week is a rejuvinated Miami. We have to get over this hurdle some time. It won't be any easier, but we better start winning soon.

Yes, but Miami has also been the starting point for many an upsurge in Texan fortunes in years past. We've had their number.

Next Sunday will say a lot about this team. If they come out fired up, they might still salvage the season. If they curl into a ball, 2-14 is a realistic prospect.

I lost sleep because of this game but man, there were a lot of bright spots to this game.

I think Sage is a much better quarterback. Rolling coverages to AJ didn't matter!!!!

Mario terrorized Payton all day

Amobe was an inside presence

The d backs made plays.

We ran the ball well, give Slaton some time

Gents, we were literally 2 plays away from blowing the Colts out.

Is it better to be lucky than good. It may be time we are good.

Shoulda coulda woulda may be closer than ever.

It is time to pledge you allegiance to thee us Texans. Jump on or jump off DIE HARD!!!!!!!

Yeah, feel a lot better today. If we dominated both sides of line every game like we did yesterday, we'd be a pretty good team. hope we continue to see that, the wins will follow.

If we can stuff the run and stop the short pass, we win against Miami. That would build a ton of confidence because Miami's run game is pretty dominating at this point.

I'm saying we win.
