OB and Godsey's plan to run, run, run till they (the Pats) are worn out failed badly.... In game adjustments were lacking. Execution = bad. Too many other things to list here..... I'm disowning this team for ooh, about 9 days.....

And then to cap it all off this retard calls fair catch on the two. Nice work, Izzo, you're nailing it.

Eheh, no like a fool I wagered on the Texans. Not real money, though.... points. Points is the currency on this betting website I frequent...

I was purposefully non-commital. I definitely never said the Texans would win on here, I just said the numbers are too easy to play with and too hard to rely on in football because of the tiny sample size. It leads to betting websites offering tips on trends based on two games in the last decade. My point was just that betting on the patriots at home is already a bigger trend then the Patriots as a Home dog. But throwing out 10-2 sounds good and makes people think they had an inside scoop.

The Patriots home record should have been enough to make anyone bet them any time the money line is reasonable.

With all that said, I picked the Texans in a pick em because I'm an idiot.

Never ever pick a Houston team on prime-time or when it counts.

If any of us were smart enough to remember that, then we wouldn't be Texans fans in the first place.

Hello.

I knew what you were doing on the ats bit, I was just stirring the pot.

Again, Godsey is a total moron, Palmer-level incompetence. The execution was terrible, too, don't lose sight of that. But the offense didn't have a whole lot to work with. Unless you think Braxton Miller is the key to the offense.

Wow, thanks for the advice.

It was strictly a homer pick. Though I do think I was starting to think there was something different about these Texans.... like they were fixin' to turn a corner or something. But, nope, same old Texans.... Silly me.
