Third game is supposed to be the least fake game as teams start to prepare for the real thing. It will be interesting to see how the Texan QB distribution shakes out.

The Saints are favored by 4.

There's today's game and then the preseason finale on Thursday with the Cowboys. I believe the "turk" strikes before and after the Cowboy game...

The Turk already struck S Stevie Brown. Cut yesterday.

Neither of those guys will smell the field in a real game, especially Nix.

Who the hell knows, maybe he can play. We're going to find out.

I loved the look on BOB's face after James' run. It was like, Damn, I might not be able to cut this guy.

Charles James has a long TD run called back because of holding but not much to mention in the final quarter..... Savage, again, shows some good things.....

Final Score:

Texans 27, Saints 13

Onward to the real stuff....
