Why the running play with score 21-21?!

[eATMup-Reveille]

Texans had the Cardinals on their heels, fussing at each other, in obvious panic mode that they were going to lose and blow a 21 point halftime lead. The Cardinals could not stop the passing attack in the second half, especially the fourth quarter. It's first down, after just having made a first down on that drive, when the OC calls for a RUNNING PLAY. What a total bonehead move. It's not like the first quarter, when you're trying to make the Cardinals respect the run, it's the d@mn fourth quarter when you're about to send shock waves through the whole NFL. THAT PLAY, in my opinion was the playcall that blew the game.

Right on the money. We lost like 4 yards on that play and when we gained 4 on the next play we were in a 3rd and ten. Schaub had to force a throw because he didn't want to give the Cards the ball when they only needed a FG to win. Bad throw by Schaub set up by our inept play-calling.

Oh the play calling where we threw the ball the whole second half until that play. Actually it was different play calling than that. You want to see what Shannaghan actually wants to call watch the first half bro.

actually the reason is two words- WEAK ARM

Schaub doesnt have the arm strength to make every throw in the nfl. Thats why he throws lobbed passes and flutter balls all over the field...his delivery is slow and has no velocity on his passes. This is what leads to the interceptions that he throws. That is the reason most of his receivers either have to stop and wait on the ball or the ball is thrown behind them...cause they are out running his throws...did yall see the quick throw that was supposed to go to AJ where he wasnt 10 yds away and skipped it up to him...that was like a 56' curve ball in baseball....how do you skip a pass to ur WR when he's only 10 yds away??? He really needs to work on his release and arm strength.

I saw it, and it pissed me off. Andre looked pretty upset as well.

yeah...they should try and make a trade with Oakland for J. Russell, he's got a rocket arm...or with St. Louis for K. Boller, again rocket arm...
