Texans @ Steelers Gameday Thread...

[A-B]

With only two short days left until game time lets go ahead and channel the rest of the talk for this game on the thread it belongs and stop all the potential pop-ups between now and then.:)

a little over 48 hrs until our season kicks off. We have discussed it until were blue in the face. We have our troll for the week so everything is set. Lets get out there and take care of business.

08 IS HERE!!! ITS TIME TO BUSS 'EM IN DA MOUF!!!!--Greedimidi--

Dude, you are a piece of work; obviously ready for the season to start. Keep the beer on ice and don't open that bag of pretzels yet, or they'll be stale by Sunday!

Yes, it is nice to finally get to a real game....

[Bullpen Drew]

I can't wait to see Mario lay a nice sack on Little Ben!

[zanth91]

I don't remember as many trolls this year as there were Chiefs fans last year...

[houstonsportsfan09]

I don't remember as many trolls this year as there were Chiefs fans last year...

Haha yeah your right. I remember last year, they came on here so confident on their team saying they were gonna beat us. Others thought it was a tossup, but we all know how that turned out.;) I guess the Steelers fans learned a lesson from the Chiefs fans to keep their mouth shut.:)

[houstonsportsfan09]

Lets see what NFL Total Access has to say...

I was looking for predictions!:eek: Haha oh well. Basically said what we already know and heard, Schaub needs to stay healthy.

[houstonsportsfan09]

guys question, is this game gonna be televised nationally? or only locally?

Locally as EllisUnit said but I should be here in the game thread updating for those not able to watch like you!:)

[houstonsportsfan09]

I know I thought that's what I was gonna get also.. :(

but some Olympic Swimmer predicts games! :D


..........she picks.........SOMEONE ;)

http://www.nfl.com/videos?videoId=09000d5d80a8dea0


but on the video I already posted, I'm glad that a lot of people are really opening their eyes to us this year!


She picked Pitt. Booo!! haha but really arent a lot of these so called experts gonna have some explaining to do?

[dbruder44]

My dam hotel in Oman (Middle East) messed up my 3 wake up calls this am, I missed my flight and now won't be home until 430 tommorow, wife will DVR the game, but I must say I am so friken mad right now I could scream. I hope you all have fun as I will be flying over Greenland at kickoff. This will be the first real game I have missed ever. Sorry this is irrelevant to this thread just getting some frustrations out. Good Luck Texans win one for the bruder (gipper) I am atleast staying for free and have anything at my disposal, already raided the mini bar, have a good night all it is 8am here

[Yosarian]

Uhmmmmmmmmmmmm....so should i start the crow picture? Surely we will be needing it as soon as those pittsburg fans locate our website here.

I was thinking maybe a new crow for this year? I'll start searching for a good one since we should be using it a lot.

Who won the caption contest , by the way.

[Bluehen Texan]

I remember my high school football coach asking if we were scared. He replied we should be. If we weren't scared, we didn't understand the battle we were facing. I have raised my expectations for these Texans and will be demoralized with nothing less than a WIN and I am scared. GO TEXANS! FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!!!!!!!!

[Whiskeyrbl]

Yeah let's put that crow on the pit today we will probably have alot of Steeler fans ready to eat tomorrow.

[Yosarian]

Dang it....looks like Ben and old timer Bettis just couldn't wait to eat their crow.

I'll start soaking another one for Hector.

[Prok]

Yeah let's put that crow on the pit today we will probably have alot of Steeler fans ready to eat tomorrow.

Pfft like none of us has ever had to eat crow before. May the best team win. And if it's the Texans, more power to them. Good luck (Not too much), and hopefully we have a clean, hard fought, injury free game.

Go Steelers!

You won't have to eat any crow when we win. You haven't come here to stir up anger. You are okay in my book. When other fans come here they often spout out the media hype about our team and just go on and on and after we win they never come back to eat their crow.

Don't worry, my rival fan friend, this crows not for you. And yes..let's have a great game with no injuries to anyone.

Hey maybe we have some common enemies. Those are always good for rival fans. :D

Example 1: As a Steeler fan it's my natural instinct to hate all things clowns. Therefore, you got a bandwagon Texans fan guaranteed every time you face the clowns. Well ya can count the bengals and ravens too! lol

I also hate the Jags, Titans and Colts for obvious reasons as well, which are your rivals, i think?

Eh, here's to some good football and thank gawd it's back!

BTW, i need all the Schaub info i can get cause i picked him up in one of my fantasy leagues and plan on playing him alot. Any info given will be appreciated. :D

If Schaub and AJ can stay healthy, you might have gotten a steal.

TEXANS FOOTBALL TIME *****ES!!!!!!!!!!

27-20 Texans win.

[Reveal]

bleh... its only 9.46.. i managed to squeeze out almost an hour....

oh yeah.... So the steelers have never lost an opening game in what like the last 5 or 6 years ..... so what? there is always the first time for everything and this feels like one of them days...... so I guess Texans will go in their record books for being the ones that broke their winning streak....


GO TEXANS!!!!!!!!!

[blactexan]

nfl countdown is on it's getting closer:):)

[Jwwillis1]

I woke up this morning so excited about opening day for the Texans it made me realize this makes me happer than:

My Birthday (or anybody elses)
My Anniversery (My wife doesnt read these things)
Thanksgiving ( I love my family but Im not nearly as interested in them after 3hrs than i am the Texans in the 4th quarter)

I am wondering if I should seek help or is this something that just happens to old men?

[houstonsportsfan09]

nfl countdown is on it's getting closer:):)

You'll know its close when the CBS and FOX pregame shows come on;) Michael Strahan makes his debut on FOX.

[spurstexanstros]

i wonder if the rest of the pregame shows will mention that Favre plays for the jets. Espn is breaking the 60 favre mentions a minute.

its like this Favre...Favre ......FARVE? FAVRE...JETS.... BRETT THE JETT....FAVRE ROMO...ROMO IS FAVRE....BRADY ...IS ROMO BRADY?...FAVRE FAVRE......
I honestlly think Berman needs to spend some alone time with Brett, he is in love with the man. Give it a rest.

Of course as soon as I say that, they say.....MARIO WILLIAMS (wtf)

[Jwwillis1]

i DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH MYSELF....SHOULD I HAVE A BEER?

There is a lot of interest around the country in Favre. Personally, I hope he does well in NY. As for Green Bay, I 'd like to seem start off 0-3.

Thank you! Thank you! I knew I could count on support from like minded junkies in the Texans forums. It's like asking 3,000 drunks if I drink too much. A-B is our fearless leader and Grand Pooba for starting the GAME DAY thread THREE DAYS AGO!! LOLOLOL

If you go over to the Steeler messageboards, they're scared of our front 7 but are underestimating our secondary.

[Pantherstang84]

I hate to say this folks. I'm desperately searching for my lucky Texans T shirt. I've got to find it before kick off!!!!!!

Wife washed it yesterday and didn't put it in it's usual place. Have to talk to her about that.

[Macaronitoni]

I always get nervous right before the game. I wonder why that is.

[richmondVaTexan]

and so it begins

[TransplantTexan1]

1st dooooooowwwwwnnnn!!!

[joedinkle]

K-Dub startin early

[texaninok]

have the texans live on the web. lets go texans

[gforce365]

**** Ahman! at least he is not limping yet

[TransplantTexan1]

1st doooooowwwwnnnn!!

[richmondVaTexan]

why is ahman stilll here

[Schaub2Andre4TD]

We are throwing early.

[TEXANottoMAN]

Keep throwing

[FLYmeatwad]

This is the first time in a long while I get to start the season of actually watching the Texans on TV. Go Texans! Slayton doesn't seem that bad on the first couple of carries, hopefully he breaks loose though.

[Macaronitoni]

**** Ahman! at least he is not limping yet

man ppl really go out of their way to hate this guy....the greatest running back in the history of the league woulda lost 3 yards on that play.

[gforce365]

run game looking weak already, but its early

[TEXANottoMAN]

O line is not making the holes yet

[TexasJedi]

Horrible spot.

[TEXANottoMAN]

DANG - short

[FLYmeatwad]

****...that hurts.

[gforce365]

Good move Schaub

[Schaub2Andre4TD]

An early gamble!

[TEXANottoMAN]

Let go

[joedinkle]

sneaking in for the 1st!!

[FLYmeatwad]

Go matt!

[TransplantTexan1]

1st dooooowwwnnnn!!

[TexasJedi]

Screwed by the zebras.

[joedinkle]

wtf mate?

[TEXANottoMAN]

bad spot - boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

[Macaronitoni]

looks like we know how the refs like

[FLYmeatwad]

That's bull****. Never too early for the refs to put on a jersey I guess.

[Pantherstang84]

Got to love that home cookin!!!!!!!!!!!

[TEXANottoMAN]

challange

[Jwwillis1]

Now u see why its so hard to win in Pitt...THEY CHEAT!!!

[texaninok]

giving them a short field right off the bat, cmon d!!

[Pantherstang84]

isnt that reviewable?

great, looks like we're gonna have to play the refs all day as well...

give us some respect, geeze

I don't know is it?

[TEXANottoMAN]

go kubs - give them an earful

[BIG ERN]

geezeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[FLYmeatwad]

Better take a **** look, not that it matters though because they set it up so they need definitive evidence to overturn and with all those bodies they could just as easily say there was none.

[Reveal]

we clearly had first down....

[Pantherstang84]

They will take another look but I don't have my hopes up. Even though the footage tells the tale. Anyway gutsy call by Kubes to go for it.

[Supercrewzin01]

Texans challenging the call.

[Jwwillis1]

Ruling - no celar view pitt ball u can bet

[kenneth24]

wth? the ref signaled first down...don't they usually move the chains as soon as it is signaled? what did they do? move the chains back to measure? we got screwed

[Macaronitoni]

the only thing that can overturn a ruling is indesputable evidence and you cant see schaub. only see that the ref who could see him signaled first down..doubt thats enough

[TexasJedi]

Stands how?

[FLYmeatwad]

That's a load of ****.

[Schaub2Andre4TD]

Great start to the game. A wasted timeout already.

[Pantherstang84]

(*(*%%(&!!!!!!

[gforce365]

have we ever won a challenge. the crap starts early

[TEXANottoMAN]

If we cant get 24 inches.....

[joedinkle]

let's go D. MARIO!

[Pantherstang84]

Come on D! Bow up on em'!

[TEXANottoMAN]

Mario 1st tackle

[gforce365]

lets go Defense

[TEXANottoMAN]

3rd down - hold em d

[RichieVar]

Mario you better wreck this place!

[Macaronitoni]

sometimes i think the system is broken. they need to just put a GPS tracker in the footballs and the knee pads and something in the ground so it knows EXACTLY here the ball goes down and thats that...can't place the ball wherever the **** you want to help your favorite team

[Pantherstang84]

Ok. Who was the !^%@&^%#@! spy on that play?

[FLYmeatwad]

Aim for the head!

[TexasJedi]

what does "GU" mean??? and why is it on the steelers jerseys?
Gene Upshaw

[kenneth24]

what does "GU" mean??? and why is it on the steelers jerseys?

I think Gene Upshaw. I saw it on AJ jersey also.

[Pantherstang84]

what does "GU" mean??? and why is it on the steelers jerseys?

Gene Upshaw. Texans have it too!

[joedinkle]

what does "GU" mean??? and why is it on the steelers jerseys?

Gene Upshaw

[gforce365]

already Reeves?

[joedinkle]

why is reves guarding holmes? if that were dunta, mario has that sack.

[Pantherstang84]

Dang. Another 3rd and long conversion.

[TEXANottoMAN]

we need more pressure

[FLYmeatwad]

We should just walk off the field, we're clearly out numbered, Pitt has an extra man on the field.

[Pantherstang84]

Crap! Here we go with the swiss cheese defense.

[TEXANottoMAN]

Poor tackleing

[joedinkle]

we need more pressure

so far, it ain't the linemen, it's the secondary

[TEXANottoMAN]

Bennett just got posterized

[richmondVaTexan]

crap

[gforce365]

^&*^&(%%^*!!!:mad::mad::confused::mad:

[texaninok]

sigh???????

[SuddenHavoc162]

BS spot of the ball leads to a freakin TD!! Great now we have to play against the ref too!!

[RichieVar]

None of this should have happened if it weren't for the call. If we knew we wouldn't get it, we'd have punted.

[joedinkle]

sigh???????

not yet...

[Pantherstang84]

sigh???????

I think that about sums it up.

[Sportswriter79]

Nice missed tackle Bennett. This game is opening just about as expected. Steelers march on first drive for TD.

:mad:
@#$!@# !

[Pantherstang84]

The clock is ticking on Richard Smith.

[Pantherstang84]

what a load of crap... the steelers should have never gotten the ball there

there were two poor spots in a row, not only on the 4th down but also on the 3rd down just before it. Im surprised more people didnt question that one as well.

When playing on the road you're actually playing against 3 teams.

[TexasJedi]

what a load of crap... the steelers should have never gotten the ball there

Plus a nice hold on Mario during the Roethlisberger 3rd down scramble.

[Macaronitoni]

The clock is ticking on Richard Smith.

i agree he should go, but i got a feeling Kubiak has some kinda manlove for Smith and won't get rid of him unless Mcnair steps in and fires him

[texaninok]

i hope this isnt a indication on how the season goes. we didnt get the calls last year either. We need show them we came to play.:mad:

[FLYmeatwad]

It doesn't matter who questions it, if the heads upstairs aren't going to do anything about it then the refs can run free. The announcer commented on how from all angles he could tell it seemed impossible to spot it anywhere behind the first down marker, but clearly it all comes down to the refs.

[Pantherstang84]

WTF was that Schaub?

[joedinkle]

nice run steve

[Big Green]

The clock is ticking on Richard Smith. You hit the NAIL right on the head!!! They BM was talking this morning about how GK is not hessitant about replacing coaches... Ray Rhodes/DC- you heard it hear first!

[FLYmeatwad]

i hope this isnt a indication on how the season goes. we didnt get the calls last year either. We need show them we came to play.:mad:

We didn't get the calls when David Carr was around, look at that Cincy game a few years back.

[Sportswriter79]

first down

[texaninok]

GET MAD TEXANS AND KICK SOME ***:mad:

[Pantherstang84]

Are they sure about that 1st down?

[SuddenHavoc162]

Nice throw Schaub!!

[gforce365]

Andre Johnson is just a beast!

[TexasJedi]

Nice poise by Schaub.

[FLYmeatwad]

What a gain! Shouldn't there be a flag somewhere to bring it back?

[SuddenHavoc162]

Wtf!!!

[gforce365]

DANG!! Shaub got plastered!

[Pantherstang84]

Dang. Leach missed that block.

[RichieVar]

Patriots with a key injury. That's their season pretty much.

If he is seriously hurt.

[richmondVaTexan]

why is ahman green here!!!

[gforce365]

Nooo!!!

[FLYmeatwad]

He didn't even make an attempt, come on Matt!

[SuddenHavoc162]

Dude is not gong to make it out of this game Healthy!!

[Macaronitoni]

Throw it away!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wtf

[Caesar]

Contact to Shaub's head. No call. What a surprise.

[Texan Heat]

2 sacks already

[Macaronitoni]

oh nvm i didnt know it was 3rd down

[Pantherstang84]

Crap! Why don't we anticipate the kitchen sink defense?

[Texas Bull]

Two sacks in three plays, :mad:

[BIG ERN]

ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[RichieVar]

Got to get Schaub to throw more 3 step drops. It's obvious this team isn't going to give him time for anything too deep.

[SuperstarII]

I have a bad feeling about this game.....

[texaninok]

We look soft still

[kmc1499]

Did any one notice that david anderson is coming in instead of Jacoby?

[Pantherstang84]

I have a bad feeling about this game.....

I had a bad feeling about the Carolina game last year too.

[Sportswriter79]

True. Disappointing.

[bigkyle]

Holy hell david carr is back in houston

[Pantherstang84]

Oh crap!

[joedinkle]

Bring that Back

[TexasJedi]

Better not pick up that flag.

[FLYmeatwad]

Of course the penalties off set.

[Sportswriter79]

That was a bs call against Ward. We were lucky.

[joedinkle]

Why was Demeco guarding Ward? Cut Richard Smith now

[richmondVaTexan]

are you freaking serious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gforce365]

lets go Mario

[RichieVar]

That was a bs call against Ward. We were lucky.

Trying to make up the spot calls I guess.

[texaninok]

Houston, the season started at 12:00 noon!!

[Texan Heat]

Too easy for the 1st down

[SuperstarII]

I had a bad feeling about the Carolina game last year too.

LOL I knew when they took off Walker this season that something wasn't gong to click right. That is just my opinion...:cool:

[FLYmeatwad]

This defense needs to get its stuff together.

[Pantherstang84]

Why don't we just pull the defense off of the field? It might be more effective.

[texaninok]

it might be a long day!:mad:

[gforce365]

who missed that sack?

[richmondVaTexan]

eggs and steak and steak and eggs, thats what you should have for breakfast. steak and eggs and eggs and steak. delicious.

[Texan Heat]

Another easy 1st down for 29 yards

[SuperstarII]

Who is going to start a Fire Richard Smith thread? :D

[gforce365]

hmmm, meatball sub at quiznos

[Jwwillis1]

WOW Did you see mario on that play! You cant blame this on him.

[Pantherstang84]

Who is going to start a Fire Richard Smith thread? :D

It wouldn't do any good. The homers would just take it over.

[richmondVaTexan]

what a terrific 1st quarter

[gforce365]

i dont care what anyone say, Mario is showing up. you cant blame it on him

[Macaronitoni]

maybe we should re think our theory that only boy scouts can play on this team....we need someone not afraid to go hit someone in the mouth...bc we are playing like we are afraid of the other team..as usual.

[Pantherstang84]

THe run defense isn't too shabby. The pass defense is just horid.

[SuperstarII]

It wouldn't do any good. The homers would just take it over.

you would be surprised about how much hate people have for that man.

[FLYmeatwad]

Mario's playing great, that's about it though.

[TexasJedi]

Yep, that's the trouble exactly.

[joedinkle]

Is it just me or is the Run D somewhat stout?

[texaninok]

i thought we were gonna be better on defense

[Texas Bull]

mario doing goood against run

[FLYmeatwad]

Almost had a break there, sadly even the little things can't go our way.

[Caesar]

It could be 3rd and 20 and these losers in the secondary would find a way to give it up.

[TexasJedi]

Frackin' Reeves.

I agree...need a lil more attitude on the defensive side of the ball.

[TransplantTexan1]

Look, the jig is up. There is no way in the hell this team has viable starting cornerbacks. They flat out suck.

[Big Green]

Did any one notice that david anderson is coming in instead of Jacoby?Yes, I noticed that. I also noticed that C.C. Brown is hovering around the line of scrimmage for run support! No bueno. Watch for something over the top.

[Pantherstang84]

And that's the way it goes.

[Caesar]

The rout is on.

[SuddenHavoc162]

Parker gonna have a career day today!! Or claose to it.

[gforce365]

lol, we spoke too soon on that run D

[kmc1499]

Argh

[Schaub2Andre4TD]

If only we could've gotten that 1st down on the first possession...

If only Bennett could've corralled that fumble...

[BIG ERN]

the rout is on.

f you

[SuperstarII]

Frackin' Reeves.

LOL To think they said he did good in the pre-season.

[FLYmeatwad]

I hope every player for the Steelers becomes impotent later in life.

[TransplantTexan1]

This certainly isn't progress on defense. No one covers anybody and the back seven aren't getting off blocks. This is bad fundamental football.

[joedinkle]

reaves lost that fumble, not bennett

[Pantherstang84]

If McNair doesn't step in and mandate some defensive changes, it will be a very long season.

[texaninok]

i am so tired of the IFs!!! This is so tiresome.:mad:

[AMartin56]

I've decided this may be less painful with the mute button applied: SMASH MOUTH! SMASH MOUTH!???? Where did they digg up these crappy announcers?

[jshep]

and boom goes the dynamite.

the call on kubiak's challenge was horse ****.

[SuperstarII]

LOL, you can't do anything but laugh at this.


yeah, Kubiak knows everything! :rolleyes:

[texaninok]

if we dont get 7 here, we are done. You cant let a team like the Steelers jump ahead at home like this

[bigcarlos]

i thought we were gonna be better on defense

me to

[Texan_fan]

I know its the first half of the first game of the season. But this is the same lackluster that preseason was IMO...Hope i'm wrong.

[Big Green]

and boom goes the dynamite.

the call on kubiak's challenge was horse ****.This next offense drive will speak volumes about the Texans moxy!

[Texas Bull]

i hope every player for the steelers becomes impotent later in life.

lol!!

[FLYmeatwad]

Good, keep running the ball, it's been working well so far :rolleyes:

[bigcarlos]

****

[Macaronitoni]

where is headsplint?

[FLYmeatwad]

Time to pack up and head home I guess.

[jshep]

what a stupid throw

[BIG ERN]

Where are the Sage homers?

[Pantherstang84]

Debabebadeb! That's all folks!

[joedinkle]

Schaub misses AJ wide open

[Caesar]

f you

I say again, the rout is on.

Is this a 2005 flashback?

[SuddenHavoc162]

LMAO!!! Opening up a can of Whoop A_ _!!!

[TransplantTexan1]

Bad football. Bad football. Bad football. Bad football.

Bad product. Bad product. Bad product. Bad product.

[Texan_fan]

This next offense drive will speak volumes about the Texans moxy!

Hope not...eeish

[gforce365]

[Sportswriter79]
