Oh, the life of a Houston sports fan...

Anyway, I think we should at least get out with a win as long as there are no turnovers that shorten the field for the Jets and we at least score FG's whenever we're down in their zone (with hopefully a couple TDs splashed in).

I think this could be a tricky game, but primarily becasue it could be a look-ahead game. if the jets were at full strength i would worry more, but when they are missing revis, holmes, stephen hill, and their tight end it seems like on top of the other issues they already had, that they may just lack enough talent to play a good game for 4 quarters.

and honestly, it is really looking like without revis, the jets' defense is in the bottom half of the league.

I wonder how much they will play Tebo?

Looking forward to an exciting game.

I did see some Texans coverage amid ESPN's Jets/Tebow/Sanchez/Rex coverage.... so that's good.

Hope the boys put on a good show tonight....
