Great win to go into the bye week with. Texans now have a 1-1/2-game lead for the conference home field.

A couple of random thoughts...

Did the Ravens make a single tackle today that didn't involve the defender wrapping both arms around the helmet? Terrible tackling form and it played a big role in Foster's escape act first down runs.

Kevin Walter has been very good this year.

The rest of the defense showed up with Watt today. Joseph was still not Joseph, but oddly they rarely tested him deep and let him instead get physical with a non-physical WR (Smith) on short stuff. A great job from him of playing well when he is not at his best.

Mercilous needs more snaps.

I think we finally saw what a total effort out of this team looks like.

Marcus Pollard has always been dirty, but playing for Baltimore has somehow allowed him to get dirtier. He is nearing Roman Harper territory.

That was pretty impressive. Great to see the full team contribution to a super victory.

One interesting thought...

Kubiak seemed to have the same game plan as last week. The only difference was Green Bay jumped all over our ass from jump; forced us to abandon the run. We were lucky enough to not get torn apart in same way after those first two 3 and outs.

On the other hand Wade definitely made some adjustments. The defense clearly came out with cruel intentions. Congrats to Barwin, Antonio, and Whitney for being showing up.

You're absolutely right...but he's come out throwing before...and we still came away with the win. My point was that our defense kept it tight early on while we had a couple three and outs...as opposed to last week...great game

The defense was unreal today. I can't remember a more complete performance, ever.

Mercilous definitely needs to be in the rotation from here on. He had a burst that we haven't seen from anyone not named Watt. I think this kid is going to be a very disruptive force for us for in the future and for a long time. I'm actually surprised at how big his lower and upper body is. When he came out of college he looked much more slender than he is today. He has the body type and speed of Suggs (well, the Suggs before he became a fatty by putting on like 30lbs during his injury). I think we have a player here, folks.

I agree the defense kept us in good position early until the offense got untracked. But the gameplans weren't similar, the lack of execution was. Luckily, when you field a complete team, neither the offense nor the defense has to always perform on every possession (a luxury very good teams like NE/NO/CHI/SF do not have).
