Official Texans vs. Lions Thread, 10/19/2008

[Big Texas]

Yes, if somehow or another we could get our scrub dcoordinator to get Reeves to turn his damn head around. This could be a great game for us. It defeats the purpose for you to be running step for step with the receiver and still let him catch the ball.

I dont care what anyone says and I know I will get some disagreements but in the Indy game he was in perfect position to either bat that ball down in the endzone. Its as if someone is just teaching him how not to let the wr get behind him. "just stay next to him and make the tackle".

On a good note he is fast and can run step for step with some good ones.

Side Note: I would love to see DRob come out strong.

I to am looking forward to D-Robs return to action, but I think those who might be looking for a big performance today from the little corner have their expectations set way too high. Afterall he's coming off of a very severe multiple injury that some thought might actually end his career and he hasn't seen any game, even preseason/exhibition-game action for a year.
I just hope he doesn't do anything to reinjury himself or damage his confidance. Anything else is icing on the cake for me.

Oh Dunta.....how do I miss thee? Let me count the ways.

[Arky]

Lions kickoff. Texans start at their own 25.

Couple of short passes then Slaton breaks one for 37 yds.

[popanot]

Want to see Schaub protect the ball today. His way too frequent boneheaded turnovers are getting old.

[TheMatrix31]

Slaton with a 37 yard gash.

[Arky]

AJ rec to the 2 yd. line...

TD pass to Owen Daniels!

[TheMatrix31]

What a DRIVE!

7-0 Texans!
