That's the most comfortable I can remember feeling for awhile for a Texans game - seemed like from start to finish it wouldn't be that challenging, but
now they get much tougher with TB, Jacksville, ATL, and Cinci with all but one on the road. Also I think we got out of that game without any serious injuries ?

I disagree with Chuck, you did what you needed to do in the 2nd half, you ran the ball and used the clock. Another sub 3 hour game. The team was in control the entire game, both on offense and defense. They even figured out not to kick to Cribbs.
I want to point out that Jacoby Jones performed the best block I can remember a WR laying down in a long time. With out that block Tate does not score. Rick Smith needs to be given credit for an excellent off season. The hiring of Wade Phillips, the draft, the free agent signings, the team being in control of their destiny, Thank you Rick.

I've noticed a lot less bitching about Jacoby Jones the past couple of weeks. I even liked the one punt where he had a few guys around him and he just caught it and moved straight ahead for a few yards without any dancing. The old JJ would have run backwards for five yards and then got tackled.
This is turning out to be a great Sunday. The Titans lost. The Patriots lost. The Raiders and Chargers lost. I think we've now moved into the second spot in the AFC playoff order and we can conclude there are no dynasty teams in the AFC this year. Even if we drop a game or two the next five weeks, we should still be ahead of the Titans going into the final two weeks. BTW, Tennessee still has to play the Saints. Now, it's time to watch the Crips and the Bloods, um, I mean the Steelers and Ravens. Gotta root for the Bloods here because hating the Steelers just never goes out of style.

Very well played game today. Cowher raved in the CBS postgame about the Texans being the most balanced team in football. I would agree. We don't really do anything excellent, but we do everything good. I am not sure what that will turn into in January, but I am very excited to find out.
And I think all of the AFC North teams are overrated. They are all defensive standouts because nobody is that good offensively. And defense no longer wins you championships, because the best teams will score points no matter what you do defensively with the current rules. If AJ played against Baltimore we would have had a good chance to sweep their division.

I was impressed with Tate today. The guy is a beast. Strong. Some of those runs today were just raw power in motion and a joy to watch. His running is a little bit reckless - might have to live with the occasional fumble from him but I believe he will counter that with many big plays...

Absolutely LOVE this:
http://www.chron.com/sports/texans/a...ns-2255894.php "And if Cushing has to bleed a little more, he's happy to do it. "That's the second time it's happened this season," he said, smiling. "It was kind of uncontrollable today, just pouring out. If it sends a message to our team about playing physical and gets them going, I'll do it every game. That's just the way I play.""
