TJ is doing such a good job of imitating Schaub its like he is Schaub.:o

This team is beyond defeated. I'm amazed at how unprepared and how poorly this team plays for a veteran team. Smith and McNair need to have some balls and clean house now. I don't give a $hit if that means Wade is the HC the rest of the year. Sick of Kubiak and everyone else on his crap staff.

Not saying STs are the main reason for losing this game, but I'm baffled as to why these guys continuously run out KO's 8-yds deep in the endzone. Is there seriously no one telling these buffoons to just down it and take it on the 20? If Marciano isn't fired tomorrow it will prove to me how impotent this organization's management is.

Stacy for 5.

Flags presnap.... illegal snap on Rams makes it 2nd and 9.

Stacy for 2 or 3. 3rd and 7 coming up.

Stacy for 2. Rams have punt on 4th and 4.

Keo fields the punt and returns it a couple of yards to the Rams 48. Texans ball with 9:17 left in the game.

I think I read we are averaging like 24 yds per KR which is like 4 yds better than touch back.

All these penalties and turnovers are amazing .

Foster for 6.

Foster caught for loss of 1.

Screen to Foster is dropped, inc. Texans to go for it on 4th and 5.

Short pass to Jean gets the 1st down plus roughing the QB on the Rams +15. Ball at the Rams 21.

Tate for about 2 but flag down.... Illegal hands on Rams +5 and an auto 1st down. Ball at the Ram 14.

Tate for no gain.

Yates' pass is tipped, inc. flag down.... offsides Rams repeat down. Makes it 2nd and 6 coming up.

Tate for about 5.

Tate for no gain. Brings up 4th and 1 and Texans going for it.

Tate to the 2 yard line and a 1st down. Under 5 minutes left in the game.

Tate for 1. 2nd and goal coming up.

Tate rushes up the middle. Ball is ruled at the 1 yard line. Kubes challenges that the ball broke the plane.....

Play stands as called....

On 3rd and goal, Tate finally punches it in.

Rams 38, Texans 13

3:15 left in the game.

Seriously? You're still trying to gauge this?

Yes, it's time for this administration to go. Great players on both sides of the ball and we are getting blown out by scrubs...this team has lost its pride and fire.... 400 yds of offense and three turnovers in the red zone. This team has regressed and is in danger of going 2-14 at this rate.

Anyone who looks at that stat and thinks this KO return team is doing a good job and should continue to run out kicks needs to see a doctor ASAP.

Austin downs the ensuing kickoff at the Ram 11 yard line. Rams ball.

-------------------------------

Cunningham rushes for 1.

Flags presnap.... offsides Rams makes it 2nd and 14 coming up.

Cunningham for 3. 3rd and 11 coming up.

Cunningham gets about 7. Rams have to punt.

2 minute warning.

Keo fields the punt and is downed at the Texan 39. Texans ball.

------------------------------

Screen to Tate gets no gain.

Dumpoff to Tate gets 6.

Pass to Griffin gets the 1st down at the Ram 45.

Pass to Jean gets 8.

Pass to Tate almost INT'ed but inc. 3rd and 2 coming up with 25 seconds left in the game.

Pass to Griffin gets the 1st down.

Yates fumbles, Texans recover and time runs out.

Final score:

Rams 38, Texans 13

I'm embarrassed to be a Texans fan after this joke of a performance.:o

"Great players on both sides of the ball'' for the Texans ? And who would they be, you are gonna have to point them out to me, because I didn't see any great players on the home team today.

On the season we have allowed 1517 yards in 6 games (about 253 ypg). We have gained 2374 (396 ypg). It takes a truly special combination of turnovers, special teams incompetence, and 2-way red zone surrender to outgain your opponents by an AVERAGE of almost 150 ypg and lose twice as much as you win.

I said before today I would be rooting against the Texans and was hoping for 2-14 since that would ensure meaningful change. Even with those hopes today suprised me in just how terrible we were.

One thing that didn't suprise me was Yates. That's just what I would expect from him.

That was not good entertainment.....

Can't believe TJ threw a pick 6. That's just crazy......

Went back on watched the Schaub injury on the DVR. Don't believe that an ankle is supposed to turn in that direction. Too bad. If he's out, we are even more screwed this year than we already were.

I'm seriously starting to doubt all the comments regarding the "talent" we have on this team, as I sure don't see it in quite a few areas.

Kubiak needs to be fired and that's that.

What can you say about that type of game except the season is now officially on life support. If they don't beat KC next week, they will go into the bye week on a five-game losing streak and their season is effectively over.

Gives some props to the Rams. They are starting to put themselves together.

As for Yates, that did look amazingly like nothing had changed with Schaub out. Except the refs will call roughing when Yates get hit. I swear, the refs have some pact where Schaub never gets a roughing flag.

There's just layers upon layers at work here so I'll just hit on a couple of things that are bothering me....

------------------------------------

I'm going to defend Yates. He probably didn't even get any extra reps this week. He's like the old dusty tool in the woodshed that needs tweaking before it is usable again. Of course, I didn't like the pick 6 or the dink & dunk "comeback" he executed. Have we completely given up on the long ball? Hell, I'll take a 25-yard pass - complete or incomplete. Just show it occasionally...

I'd really like to see what Keenum can do unless he's put in a puppetmaster situation. But it's too early to totally write off Yates, IMO.....

------------------------------------

As for Schaub, not a fan of Solomon at the Chron but he summed it up pretty succinctly:

I could care less about being morally outraged at the whole cheering the injury deal.....it's fans being fans. Controversy makes for hot topics and some people are not nice (duh). Big deal, get over it.

----------------------------

The team is a mess right now and I don't have any answers. But hey, at least we kicked their asses in time of possession and total yards. :rolleyes:

i don't think they are anymore screwed than they would be with him. i agree he is better than tj and case, but the offense had scored no touchdowns in 9 quarters with schaub in. not sure it can get any worse.

oh, and to answer the question about the coin toss. the rams won it.

The line for Texans vs. Chiefs opened at Chiefs by 4 and has quickly jumped to Chiefs by 6.5 to 7 (i.e., early money coming in on the Chiefs).

Usually, the books will hold off on posting a line if the status of the starting QB (Schaub) is unknown. I'm guessing they don't think it makes any difference..... :o
