The Official Patriots vs Texans game thread

[Uncle Rico]

houston has 31 pts...average 18...are you kidding me?

And ...

Field Yates ?@FieldYates 38s
The Texans had just 2 rushing TD's entering Week 12. They've triple their season total with 4 already today.

Hightower and Spikes either are drunk or stoned.

 

[Observer]

Defense is back to form where no lead is ever safe… ever.

BB better stop taking notes or the league will send out a memo making all note taking on the sidelines illegal.

 

[TheTruth3402]

I'll be interested to see if we try to control the ball and chew up some clock, or if we come out firing and try for a quick score of our own.

 

[ivanvamp]

Can we just get out of this stadium with a win.

This. There are no style points in the NFL. Just survive and advance, please.

 

[PatriotReign]

Why is Kyle Arrington playing outside when everyone knows he can't keep track of a receiver for more than 10 yards!? And can the D-line plug one running lane. Geez!

 

[Brady6]

Knew it was Arrington before I even looked up. He's the new Ellis Hobbs

I think we all wish he was as good as Hobbs.

 

[PP2]

We have an non-existent DL; pretty aggravating but not their fault. Asking a little too much to man a front line with one UDFA and one 6th round pick.

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

D all time low. What was that, 3 f'n plays. Wow!:confused

 

[TruthSeeker]

Our defense couldn't stop St Joseph's School of The Blind right now.

What the hell is going on

This is the defense we presently have. The offense will have to carry the defense going forward. This should not be a surprise given the amount of injuries. Weather and Brady will have to be this defense's best friends.

 

[Foxypats]

at this rate, the team with the ball last might very well win and there is no guarantee that the Pats will have the ball last!!

 

[TheTruth3402]

Hightower and Spikes either are drunk or stoned.

Stoned. At the line by the Texans front

Is Arrington Concussed?

That's what I thought. There didn't seem to be much separation until Arrington slowed down.

Greg A. Bedard ?@GregABedard 1m
Yeesh. Patriots missing the 0 degree wind chill, 35 mph wind as 12th defender.

 

[PP2]

Why is Kyle Arrington ever allowed to play anything but, slot?

Because Dennard is out.

 

[IllegalContact]

How the hell did anyone not realize this is how the season was going to play out?

Out shooting is the only way

 

[Ozymandias]

Still don't get why Ryan isn't the primary backup outside CB.

Because he, like Arrington, is very burnable on the perimeter.

Though I can't see how anyone could've played that any worse. Arrington's doing his best Ike Taylor impersonation today.

 

[PatriotSeven]

I guess the D needed another rest. Maybe saving it all for that last drive stop.

 

[DOGWARZ]

Please offense another td and pleas can the defense hold for 1 drive? I'm afraid we are going to have a turnover on offense which will cost us the game. Actually whoever turns the ball over next will lose this game I feel.
