Texans Postgame

[calia]

There's still a bunch of football to play, but man.

AS done for the year and we squander opportunities to go 7-3 and maintain a lead on the East.

Dallas wakes up and plays a decent game -- gaining one on us and having some momentum going into a short week against us at home against our backup QB. If we manage to win, some of their fans will try to burn down Jerruhworld they'll be so upset. That would be pretty terrific, and I recall Colt coming in and beating Dallas at home a few years ago. The Texan winning in Texas.

Philly is getting pasted by the Saints. Worse than our ass whooping. So that's nice. And the Bucs turn it over 4 times to find a way to lose to the Giants.

So other than Philly losing, a crappy day all around (to put it mildly).

I'd love to see the team rally around Colt. They really like him -- he's been a standup guy for years now, and he'd be easy to root for (easily as much as Foles was last year for some folks). But Gruden has to game call aggressively -- conservative with AS would win some games (and did), but we cannot assume that about Colt.
