Official Texans @ Buccaneers Game Thread, 12/21/2019

I never did see that block in the back that cost us four points. Oh, well. 10-0 Texans. Not a bad start.

BTW, I know Scott Novak's mother. She posts on the Broncos board. But she will flame anyone that rips her son.

Buc's drive stalls out and they attempt a 54-yard FG but Blackson blocks it. Texans recover the ball and Cunningham runs it back to the Texan 49.

Still, 10-0 and the Texans have the ball.

8:16 left in the 1st qtr.

Fairbairn lines up for the 54-yard FG but it turns into a punt. Fairbairn punts it out of bounds at the Buc 10. Buc's ball.

4:38 left in the 1st qtr.

[Arky]

Buc's drive stalls out and Gay is on to attempt a 50-yard FG.

FG is good.

Texans 10, Texans 3

56 seconds left in the 1st qtr.

I predict a handoff to Hyde right up the middle here...it has worked so well on first down.

Correct! How'd you know?

[Arky]

Ugh, D Johnson coughs it up and the Bucs recover. Buc's ball at the Texan 31.

JJo INT's right back! Texans have the ball at their 14.

14:06 left in the half.

I could see that all the way from Panama. O'Brien is so imaginative.

Man, you would think Tampa Bay was the Texans the way they keep getting calls against them.

[chuck]

The Texans haven't come anywhere close to a first down that wasn't penalty assisted. The play calling has been absolutely brutal.
