Official Texans @ Cardinals Game Thread, 8/14/2010

[Arky]

Kubiak challenges that AJ was down. Replay seems to confirm this.

[Nconroe]

clearly we will win this challenge on fumble call on AJ. he was pretty clear down.

[Big Texas]

That wasnt even close to a fumble. Come on refs.

[Arky]

Refs rule Texans ball, 1st and 10 at the 12!

JJ loses about 6 on the reverse.

AJ gets about 4 on the screen. Brings up 3rd and 10.

[Keith]

Someone tear out the reverse from the playbook.

Easily my least favorite play evah.

[Arky]

Flag on the play before the play gets going. False start offense. Makes it 3rd and 15.

Foster off left tackle for about 4 or 5. Texans to go for the FG.

Brown is on for a 31 yarder.

FG is good!

Texans 3, Cards 0

[Big Texas]

Saw some good running from Foster. However same ol' Texans (Kubiak). They call a dumb ass reverse in the red zone and we settle for a field goal. Well at least KBrown made it.

[Nconroe]

reverse and motion penalty on 76 did em in. same ol story fo sure so far

[Arky]

Cards bring the kickoff back to their own 27.

Hightower for 2 or 3 off right tackle.

Wow, Texans hit the runner in the backfield - TFL. Fumble but Cards recover. Brings up 3rd and 19.

Mario sacks Leinart at the 3! Cards have to punt...

[Nconroe]

nice tqackle by Pollard, nice almost fumble and now sack by Mario, D looking good so far.

[Arky]

Holliday lets the punt go but then decides to recover it at the Texan 42. Hmmm...


Ball ends up being marked at the Cards 47. ??


Foster for 3.

Schaub hits AJ wide open down the left sideline.... deep pass of 44 yards ..... TD.

Brown's point after is good.

Texans 10, Cards 0

It's an end-around, but yes, idiotic. Good to know that the new OC does the same slapdick nonsense in the red zone that the old one did.

Get that play out of the playbook, f%#& me.

[Nconroe]

yahooo, first TD of the year, Schaub to AJ , 44 yds.

[chuck]

One-on-one against number 80. Guess what? That's not going to work.

[Big Texas]

Underthrown ball and he still had 3 steps on em'. I am convinced Andre is ready to go.

[TexicanMexican]

Good to see some football even if it's the preseaon.

[Big Texas]

Ok we know we can quick strike. I almost wish we had another chance in the red zone. But I love Andre making his presence felt early...

[Arky]

Cards bring the kickoff back to their own 21.

Leinart's dump off goes inc. 2nd and 10 coming up.

Leinart hits Fitz across the middle - play goes for about 16 yards.

Hightower gets about 3 off right tackle.

[Big Texas]

Brandon Kieth #72 RT for Arizona will for the remainder of the season be remembered as the guy that Mario blew up early in preseason game 1.

Yeah, I'm guessing this speaks to a lack of gameplanning for the opponent in the first game of the preseason. I don't think Angry Dre sees much 1-on-1 come September.
