At 2-2 including a 25 point blowout victory on the road vs NE and a win against the
Chargers last week, the "Phins have momentum and confidance, neither of which the Texans have much of these days.
Here's hoping they finally get a win, but I dunno if it's gonna today ?

Today is the day! It is today until tomorrow and then it will become yesterday......

That is so frustrating. INT.

[Arky]

Dolphins kick off. Texans get a first down but Matt Schaub is intercepted on the next play.

Dolphins ball near midfield...

---------

Texans stop them on 3rd down, Miami to punt.

JJ fair catch at the Texan 12.

[Arky]

Texans move the ball to about midfield where Schaub throws INT #2.

Dolphins use flea-flicker type play for deep pass and 6 pts.

Dolphins 7, Texans 0

[TheMatrix31]

Sweet mother.

[popanot]

If the Texans lose it's time for Kubiak to go, IMO. The team will be lost at that point.

[mussop]

Schaub looks terrible. Wish we had a veteran QB to go to. I think at this point Sage is the better option, Put him in and lets hope he has learned fron his mistakes last week.

[Arky]

Texans move down the field but stall out in the redzone. K Brown FG = good.

Dolphins 7, Texans 3

Texans moving the ball well but not much to show for it.....

Texans could use a turnover to swing momentum....

[popanot]

Prediction: Porter will hit Schaub and create a turnover sooner or later. Probably at the worst possible time.

[Arky]

Defense makes a stop so Miami punts. Ball rolls to the Texan 13. Texans with a long field - again.

[Arky]

Texans move the ball into Miami territory but can't convert on 3rd down so Turk comes in to punt. Punt is touchback so Miami's ball at the 20.

On second down, Miami throws a little screen type play that goes all the way 80 yds.

Miami 14, Texans 3

[popanot]

This f'ing team sucks!!!!

[Dennis2112]

Davis with a good return, maybe this is where we start it off.


...I hope

[TheMatrix31]

I'm loving these long throws, I have to say.

It amazes me that our offense can NEVER hit a big play like that.

[popanot]

Schaub continues to throw into coverage.

[Arky]

Miami kicks off - nice return by A Davis to about the Miami 42 yd. line.

20 yd pass to AJ. Texans already at the Miami 22....

--------

AD interferred with - Texans with a 1st and 10 in the redzone.

---------

Drive stalls - Kris Brown FG good from 33 yds.

Dolphins 14, Texans 6
