Official Texans vs. Seahawks Game Thread, 9/29/2013

I have faith that the Seahawks are the extreme home/road Jeckyl/Hyde of the NFL. Whether that makes them vulnerable enough for the Texans to beat them is still an open question but I'd give the Texans no chance if the game were in Washington. The noon start is also going to seem like a 10 a.m. start for them. Makes sense to try to jump on them early while they are half asleep.

A lot depends on Andre. We were lost after he bruised his calf (and only mostly lost before that).
