Re: Week 9: @ Texans

Kicker was such a fail Pagano didn't even bother trying to ice him.

Vanderjagt's agent is on the phone with Houston right now lol...

I have no idea how they won

Re: Week 9: @ Texans

We were ABSOLUTELY DREADFUL in that first half against an opponent who was treating this match-up as if it was the Super Bowl.......yet we STILL found a way to win!

These are the types of wins that championship teams have. Their were plenty of ugly games during the Manning era that we had no business winning, yet we found a way to pull them out. That's what we did tonight.

TY is going to be a BEAST down the stretch.

Re: Week 9: @ Texans

never thought for one second that the kick even had a chance.......

I sure did. Other teams have a remarkable track record of hitting 50+ yard field goals to tie us or beat us.

Re: Week 9: @ Texans

Honestly, feel bad for Case Keenum. Dude looks legit. Kicker was such a fail Pagano didn't even bother trying to ice him.

Keemun played good enough to win last week too, I do feel a little bad for him, just a very tiny little bit though.

Especially from the AFC South

Haha this is awesome. How the hell did we win this game? Unbelievable. Big thanks to their kicker of course and another comeback for Andrew. Hilton was a beast. Hopefully this was a big step to establish him as No 1receiver while Reggie is gone.

Great series by Angerer there

Re: Week 9: @ Texans

It's our first win in Houston since 2009. Feels good, man.

Re: Week 9: @ Texans

Seriously, at this point isn't this whole 4th quarter comeback stuff with Luck just getting a little bit ridiculous? Teams are going to start turning it around and saying NO MATTER WHAT DON'T TAKE A LEAD INTO THE 4TH AGAINST LUCK!

[Johanvil]

Off to sleep guys. At 7 A.M... Still at awe and disbelief we won this game.

Re: Week 9: @ Texans

Unbelievable. Id say at this point if we can just beat the titans we will win the division. Even if we dropped all the rest of our games, I think if we beat them both times the division is ours.

Re: Week 9: @ Texans

I hope DHB is okay, I know he's struggled but we can't lose any more WR's. It was a great comeback and I was really impressed with the blocking adjustments in the 4th quarter. It didn't hurt that their kicker missed 3 but there was also the blocked fg, the missed roughing the kicker on the punt, and the botched reversed call on the fumble replay. I think this game will serve as a learning experience and we'll be better against the Rams next week. They have a pretty good pass rush too, so we'll need to be better prepared out of the gate for that. Go Colts!

Re: Week 9: @ Texans

Having a defense that is at least adequate against the run makes a huge difference. Sure, slinging the ball is fun and in a shootout I like our chances. Our chances only get hurt when the other team is able to run us over and keep the offense on the sidelines.

That was a flaw for the Manning years and it's no longer a flaw.

I didn't mind the conservative play at the end. They couldn't stop the clock and we needed like 12 yards. Strange things can happen when you throw the ball. Luck could throw it perfectly and the receiver bobble it... or it could get tipped. A reception is only one possible outcome. So is a turnover and pick 6. Even if it falls safely to the turf it's giving Houston more time because it stops the clock and does them a favor. It was late enough in the game to be conservative. Besides that, it worked...
