Good analysis, bad application of analysis.

I don't think fear would be the word I would use. Respect is more like it. The Patriots do RESPECT the Texans but I am pretty sure they are not afraid of them . If anything , they are probably only afraid if they themselves play badly!

so he's betting on the pats causing no TOs..the #1 TO team in the NFL? Where is the mention of gronk back?

but whenever Aqib Talib is not playing press-man at the line he becomes the very definition of a "meh" cornerback. It’s as if he loses all sense of timing, technique, and football IQ when he can’t punch someone in the shoulder in the middle of their release and follow them down field with pure speed and athleticism. A technician, he is not.

i agree with this part though

yup..he is most deff a texans fans

Can you imagine what Gary Kubiak, one of the best offensive minds in the NFL, is cooking up? Kubiak's got their blitzes, he's got their tendencies, and he's got all the weapons he'll ever need to exploit them

he really doesn't think the pats will change their blitz packages from the first game?

The Bulls on Parade might have a hard time stopping the Brady Bunch, but you better believe that the Patriots will have an even harder time stopping the Texans.

If Matt Schaub has to throw the ball 39 times, the Texans will get blown out.

I still think it is funny that he predicts half the offense to have season highs or next to season highs tomorrow especially since the Texans had over 650 yards of offense and scored 43 points vs. Jacksonville about two months ago and 500 yards of offense and 34 points the following week. Predicting anyone having a season high in a playoff game is alike ridiculous especially since the Pats are worlds better than either the Jags or Lions.

There was a quarterback named Matt Schaub
Who was once Houston’s favorite heart-throb
He once wore a sweater
That bore his team’s letter
Then the Pats removed his balls and knob…..

Mods, can we get a sticky on this thread?

Fear clouds the mind ... Respect sharpens the senses
