Brown seems to enjoy the one cut offense a bit.

Still trying to figure out how Matt fit that throw in to Kevin.

Touchdown Texans!

Jason David's as popular as hurricanes in NO at the moment.

C.C. goes for the knockout shot there. Nice separation hit.

K Brown FG good.

Schaub looking sharp - piling up some nice stats...

Brunnel to Dudley - short pass for 6.

Saints 27, Texans 24

Game is a defensive struggle (sarc).

JJ seems to be digging a pretty deep hole with all of the mistakes.

Final Score:

Texans 31, Saints 27.

Offense looked impressive - defense didn't.

No Darius Walker - perhaps they had a change of plans and will give him some PT next week?...

Ugh, Jacoby... it's preseason but he needs to get it together...

Brink OK - didn't embarrass himself

Chris Brown still healthy after a few carries...

Some good individual plays on defense. Not a good game for Jacques Reeves....

Welcome to the NFL Antwuan Molden.

Yep. But way too early to give up on him. Kubes and Marciano will shape him up (or woe is him).

Brown looked very good. The guy can run the ball and fits the offense well. I just fear he may be a tease since it seems inevitable he will get hurt.

Taylor is big, strong, fast, and just runs straight. He doesn't even seem to look for a hole. He can be effective as a chain mover, but I don't see at all the talk of him as a feature back. Looks to have a Rueben Droughns ceiling at best.

Slaton looked awesome outside and between the tackles. Now I want to see him against guys who will have a job next month.
