W T F is Schaub doing? There is no reason to throw that pass. He had more yardage looking at Brown coming out of the backfield and Brown didn't have two guys all up in his jock.

There's Demeco again. Shaun Cody looks like a keeper.

That was a TERRIBLE roughing call.

Arky · #42 08-31-2009, 07:57 PM

Vikes have a 3rd and 6. Run defense doing just a bit better....

Favre's pass incomplete but Adibi roughs the passer...

Vikes 1st down at the 10.

Offensive PI on Vikes - makes for 2nd and goal at the 18.

Incomplete pass makes for 3rd down.

3rd down pass is deflected.... Vikes to go for the FG..

36 yd FG is good.

Vikes 10, Texans 0

HPF Bob · #43 08-31-2009, 07:57 PM

Well, after that bogus roughing call, the Texans stiffen and allow just a FG.

Nconroe · #44 08-31-2009, 07:59 PM

Adibi broke up the pass, hopefully defense settling in here. dwn 10-0 on the FG.

Big Texas · #45 08-31-2009, 07:59 PM

We just cannot seem to get turnovers. I am not saying Demeco could've caught that tip but we just don't ever seem to be in position for those turnovers.

That maybe could've got the momentum going for the Offense. But no, now we are down 10-0.

But hey to be optimistic we didn't let them score...

Big Texas · #46 08-31-2009, 08:03 PM

So basically Edwards just got away with kicking Pitts while he was on the ground

Arky · #47 08-31-2009, 08:05 PM

AD brings the kick back to the Texan 29.

Slaton wide open for about 10.

Offsetting penalties bring up 2nd down and 1.

Vikes off sides. 1st down.

Slaton takes the pitch for about 8. Ball at midfield.

Slaton for -1.

Schaub scrambles up the gut for the 1st down.

Nconroe · #48 08-31-2009, 08:07 PM

Hey, we made it over mid-field finally.

Arky · #49 08-31-2009, 08:09 PM

OD for 11.

Leach takes dump off for about 7. Ball at the 27.

Schaub rolls out, no pass but scrambles for the 1st down.

Winston offsides on 1st down. 1st and 15.

Slaton for about a yard.

Over the middle to OD! 1st down at the 11.

Arky · #50 08-31-2009, 08:10 PM

Slant to AD is good to the 4.

Slaton up the gut for 6 pts.

Vikes 10, Texans 7

Much better but Schaub a little gimpy...

TheMatrix31 · #51 08-31-2009, 08:11 PM

Schaub is injured. Surprise f'n surprise.

Nconroe · #52 08-31-2009, 08:12 PM

I hope Leach and Schaub ok.

Big Texas · #53 08-31-2009, 08:12 PM

WOW!!! Are you serious

HPF Bob · #54 08-31-2009, 08:13 PM

Nice drive but Schaub is gimpy. Gruden was dead on about the pass to Davis. Should have been a touchdown if he's on target.

Big Texas · #55 08-31-2009, 08:15 PM

I hope he is OK. I would imagine he is not coming back in the game.

This is starting to get rediculous

Arky · #56 08-31-2009, 08:19 PM

Vikes bring the kickoff back to their own 24.

Peterson 2 rushes for a 1st down. About 3 minutes left in the half.

Peterson for 16 more. Ball at the Texan 48 - 2 minute warning.

Big Texas · #57 08-31-2009, 08:20 PM

Our D-Line is getting walked backwards and turned every which way. We have 5-6 guys lined up on the LOS and Peterson is still getting into our secondary. It seems if Demeco is not making the play, no one is.

Arky · #58 08-31-2009, 08:23 PM

It's Schaub's ankle - he's expected back in, Yay!

Deep pass by Favre inc. 2nd and 10.

Dump to Taylor good for 4. 3rd down.

Pass by Favre is good for the 1st down. Nice hit by McCain.

Illegal shift offense - 1st and 15.

Holding on Vikes. 1st and 25.

Ball at the Texan 42.

Arky · #59 08-31-2009, 08:28 PM

Pass, bad tackling and Vikes are 3 yds. short of the 1st down. 37 seconds left.

Dump to Taylor goes for the score.

Vikings 17, Texans 7

27 seconds left till halftime.

chuck · #60 08-31-2009, 08:29 PM

Eugene Wilson is the team's best safety. And he can't tackle. That should tell you all you need to know.
