Official Texans @ 49ers Fake Game Thread, 8/14/2016

[Big Texas]

Eric Lee and Tony Washington are not ready...

Whomever is on that DLine looks terrible...

The Texans have the worst return game in the history of football. These clowns make Jacoby Jones look like Mel Gray.

And another thing, what is the story with the Texans never being able to find a guy who can kick the mfng ball into the end zone? At first I thought it must be the wind. Nope. Dude damn near as old as I am in the other jersey booms it into the back of the end zone from either side. I don't get it.

Savage looking better with two TD drives. Starting to succeed with passes. Mostly 3rd stringers now , but doing ok.

Believe that is going to be the new strategy. Touchbacks start at the 25 yard line now. If the kickers kick high, and just into the zone, returners will likely bring it out and odds are greater you'll get them inside the 20.

Novak might be the ideal kicker for that. Pretty sure that kid can get it to the back of the end zone.

We have a Care Bear as a placekicker?

It's really nice to see Tom Savage back. August is his time of year.

The Texans are actually very good in games that don't matter. We didn't look great today yet still won by 11 points.

Miller looks like a better player than Fuller.

A win's a win and if we suffered no major injuries, what more can you ask?

If someone wants to rewatch, looks like NFL network will reshow game at 3 PM on Tuesday afternoon.

I saw Fuller be open several times but Os didn't throw to him. Plenty time yet to see more.

Early and a lot of starters out on both sides of the ball.

On to practice with Saints this week.
