I wonder if Schaub will ever throw the ball downfield.

We are just dropping passes...

That TD is on the offense for doing nothing with the ball...

Schaub throwing ok, couple of close drops. And hopefully we get Foster and run game going..

Atleast field position not too bad so far. Defense .

Biggest factor of the 1st is 2 usually surehanded guys dropping balls. Just unfortunate.

Biggest complaint is the D being caught completely off guard by a quick snap on the 1. Gotta see that coming.

That is the difference between a very good team and the Texans. A very good team finishes in the red zone and the Texans shrivel. The no balls / no execution pair that the Texans invariably display in the red zone is absolutely disgusting. We can expect to continue to see it as long as Kubiak and Schaub are a tandem. Which will be for as long as McNair is alive.

Happy with the first quarter. No penalties. Generally won field position except for the bad punt which naturally, set then up for 7.

Have to get a TD here.

Second and ten, second and twelve.

The team needs to run the ball to win but running the ball on first down out of running formations is obviously not the path to success.
