First of all "CHUCK", You can leave your comments to yourself. I don't "bitch" about anything. I'm nobody's female.

If you actually paid attention to what I wrote, I said a "pathetic" blitz. There is a time and a place for every thing.

A perfect time for a blitz and a dumb ass time to call a blitz.
A horrible blitz scheme and a poorly executed blitz scheme.

In this case it was a poorly executed dumb ass play.

In that situation he obvisously thought that Quinn would be able to hold his own one on one with Santonio Holmes.

Dumb ass decision...

So "CHUCK" you can kiss my ass...

[chuck]

So, yes, I was right. It is you who's always bitching about the Texans not calling enough blitzes. I thought so although I wasn't sure since I usually skip over your idiotic posts.

[Fonz the Boss]

^^^ Gotta love the raging internet nerds haha.... i'll just sit back and enjoy this

Chuck you don't even know what you are talking about...

Check your facts...Blitzing is not something I frequently talk about...I don't even know why I am discussing this with you. Obviously, you are some dumb ass trying to get some recognition...

So I hope you enjoy your day...

I haven't cried after a sporting event since John Paxson sunk the Suns in the 1993 NBA Finals.

I bawled for about 10 minutes after the touchdown, then I punched a hole in my wall and knocked my small desk fan across the room.

I've ****************ing had it. This is cursed ass bullshit that falls on me.

Dude, have a beer or something.....

[Arky]

Hey, hey....... timeout.....

Tough loss for sure. The way I look at it (and as a lifetime Houston fan, I'm quite used to it by now), aren't these problems with the team *their* problems? As far as I know, none of us choked away the game. I love 'em to death but fans don't control anything - they are the ones making the mistakes..... If you want to get angry, fine, just realize it accomplishes nothing.....

I had a bad feeling when I saw Pollard smiling in the huddle right before the Jets last drive... (Don't be smilin', yet, Bernard)...

Poor GQ, burnt twice in 2 weeks... That long pass to the 6 yard line was the killer, though... welcome to the Texans, Jason Allen...

I'm real gullible, but even I suspect you're putting us on, right man ?
Because if you're not, I'm impressed. I mean I really take this team seriously and I took this loss real tough (tough for a fan, but the players must feel terrible beyond my imagination).
Honest, you didn't do all of that did you TheMatrix31 ?

[Blitzwood]

I don't fret about these losses anymore, until something changes with the defensive schemes we run or our coaching staff, it's hard to get excited when we can't stop anyone.

To continue to run and operate the same defense that has yielded us the worst ranking in NFL HISTORY and somehow expect a different result is like burying your head in the sand, it's CRAZY to expect anything different......

[barrett]

Seriously, how could anyone get that upset about a loss in a season that was lost at least 3 weeks ago. This team is done.

I was down about the way they lost, but it's neither suprising or even particularly bad for the team.

A win today may have helped convince McNair that he should stick with kubiak.

Swear on my life.

Honestly, I'm sick of it. Life isn't too good right now anyway (its not that great for a lot of people) and just the frustration of losing the way we lose week after week, year after year, coupled with all the other heartbreak and torture I endure with all the other sports/teams I follow......it takes its' toll on the psyche and I broke down. Not proud of it but hey.

I know it's not healthy. Trust me I know. But it just starts making me question just what the hell it is, like I'm cursed or something you know?

I know the players don't feel bad about it. If they felt bad about it, they wouldn't let this crap happen week after week, year after year. The fans always care more about the game than the players do. The players get a check for their "effort", the fan just gets twisted, wretched emotion and are left with nothing else.

[HPF Bob]

Sorry guys, it was me. I switched over to the Cowboys when we were behind 20-7 because I was taking a crash course on Excel 2007 and found that, even muted, I kept stealing glances at the game.

So I notice in the corner of the screen that the Texans were coming back (still don't know how they did it) and turned back to the Texans just as they took the 27-23 lead. I'm a jinx. My bad.

I've had a few meltdowns in my time. I threw a shoe that broke a lamp back when Earl Campbell fumbled and the Raiders ran it back 99 yards. I screamed myself hoarse as the Oilers blew a 35-3 lead to Buffalo, saying "this isn't happening. It can't be happening". I had a screaming, door-slamming fit when the f-ing Braves came back to win Game 4 of the 2004 LCS, knowing we'd have to go back to Atlanta for a game we'd surely lose.

Pretty much all Houston fans know the feeling.

But this game didn't really get to me, and neither did last week's loss because it's what I expect from our pass defense. They suck. Props to Smith for ignoring our secondary for so long that we have no talent back there. AFAIC, it's personnel that's the problem. Dumb penalties and dumb mistakes.

So, no, this wasn't worth punching a hole over. But it sucks that we almost had a great comeback win to celebrate but we just couldn't stop a team from going 80+ yards in :48 seconds with no timeouts when a field goal would not have helped them. To top it off, the Jets did it with ten seconds to spare.

They're living a charmed life this year.

OK I believe you. Anyway, I thought I took the loss hard, but obviously not like you. But honestly I appreciate your feelings, your devotion to the team as I know for sure how frustrating it is. I know that's not much comfort to you right now. And whatever else is not going so well for you right now in life (employment status maybe), hang in there man.
I use to say I would rather the team lose a game like they did against the Colts on MNF or the Giants game in Reliant, in other words get blown out, than the way they lost yesterday in NY. Now I know I don't feel that way, because there's no doubt the effort was there yesterday where it's absent in the other situation, even though a loss like yesterday is far more heartbreakeing.
This is very, very small consolation this morning and I mean this in no way as a claim of some kind of a morale victory which is of no value to us and our team at this point in its existance, but some guys made some plays yesterday. We had some strong individual performances, just as we had some
disastouras breakdowns including one or 2 that cost us a football game.
But honestly I'm still not sure that the problem with our defense has been Richard Smith & Frank Bush or the personnel decisions the Texans have made about who to draft (and to a lesser extent to acquire thru FA) and put on the field ?
