Funny how it takes 1 bad game for us to be back on the gus johnson/steve tasker train. Just when I'd thought we'd played our way into non-mute-inducing announcers...

Well, its not exactly a barn burning matchup. The unknown Texans vs the what the hell is Al Davis going to do next Raiders.

I like Gus. When he's screaming "OH, MY GOODNESS!" when the Texans score, that's a good thing.... I'd rather have this pair than some of the others.... Not a big fan of some of the top crews....

Default Another Black Hole blackout

From PFT:

Another Black Hole blackout
Posted by Mike Florio on October 1, 2010 9:12 AM ET
This week, the Chargers home game against the Cardinals will be blacked out. The Jaguars home game against the Colts won't be blacked out. And the Rams home game against the Seahawks could be blacked out.

Another game that will be blacked out will be played in Oakland, where the Raiders once again have failed to sell all non-premium seats for their game against the Texans.

Per Sean Leahy of USA Today, six games have been blacked out through four weeks. That projects to 25 or 26 blackouts for the year.

I missed last weeks game (out of town), but it looks like Ware had a "field day" which certainly points to the key absense of Duane Brown. And that was of course self-inflicted, not like Brown had an injury that keeps him out for a month. It will be good to have Cushing back soon, but no matter how high-profile and popular he may be here in Houston, I don't really think he's as valuable to the team as our regular LT ?
How bad was Rashad last week and what do Texans fan expect of him this week in Oakland ? Thankfully he won't have to play anyboy like Ware today.

Butler was suprisingly pretty good. The sacks he got were actually coverage sacks. One of three was when (for some reason) Dreesen was trying to block him.

Kubiak's coaching was pretty bad. He kept trying to call that quick slant, I guess to try and slow down the rush. However, the Cowboys adjusted and just dropped into a soft zone. Kubiak never readjusted, which ultimately led to a lot of blank stares on the part of Shaub as he sat in the pocket unaware of what to do next..

To my original point, Butler held up his end of the bargain. We need to go into Oakland with a revamped attitude. I really think Kubiak got the big head in that game. When you are told for two weeks in a row that your offense is so great, you begin to think that no adjustments need to be made. This was never more evident when we ran the ball three times inside the five not to get in the end zone.
