    Texans win in a 9-6 nail biter. Have a feeling both teams kickers miss extra points.

    Great about the announcers.


    I'm still bitter about Mexico. I want laser pointers. I want a terrible out of bounds call as Crabtree or Cooper breaks a gain (hopefully not too much of that).

    Just win baby!

    Gotta love Gruden, that's a plus. As for the game, Texans win 17-9.

    Its the only ESPN game... so it would have to be them.

    The Texans have always gotten the Saturday afternoon game... 4/4 in their playoff appearances in franchise history.

    Looking at you, Brock.

    Brock should light up this Oakland secondary. 3 TD's. 2 to Nuk and 1 to Fedorwicskiz
    Texans 35
    Raiders 13

    Then bring out the leather jackets because they will need them in Foxboro.

    ESPN reportedly paid $100M for this game. Ad revenue is being estimated at around $25Mbecause of the time of the game and the participants.

    No excuses to lose to a team on their 3rd string, rookie qb.

    Also, go Miami.

    No much to be excited about when it's the Texans and Carrless Raiders

    I wouldn't mind O'Brien getting fired if we lose at home to Connor Cook. It'd be the most embarrassing loss in Texans history, even worse than last year. There is no excuse for losing this game IMO.

    If hes healthy, it has to be Savage, right? I don't think you make a QB change this late unless you were done with QB1. If they go back to Brock it just seems like they don't even know what to do with the offense by flip flopping again.

    The Texans will win. Its the perfect setup for the ultimate destruction and big let down, which Houston professional football excels at greatly. All the Houston football novices with their rose colored glasses will be thinking up ridiculous reasons why they can beat the Patriots, building up hope for the game. The Patriots will then completely dismantle the Texans, once again, on a national tv prime time setting. If any of you gamble on football and this game happens, bet the farm on the Patriots if the point spread is less than -14.

    Go Rockets!
