What the Texans fans are saying about us..

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; I am having a hard time figuring out the Texans. They'll be missing Foster, whatever that means. It seems like there's not a definitive personality/style for either offense or defense. That may be good for them, but the preseason game ...

I am having a hard time figuring out the Texans. They'll be missing Foster, whatever that means. It seems like there's not a definitive personality/style for either offense or defense. That may be good for them, but the preseason game didn't impress me. They've played Indiana State for the Terminally Disabled at home and struggled against a Miami team that does less with more than any other in the league - Reggie got 4 plays?

The fact that the line is at 4 now is more due to a Schaub factor than anything.

Despite all this, I can't think of a matchup problem that the Texans pose that we wouldn't have with any other team. GW bringing 6 40% of the time is going to wear Schaub out. I don't think the Texans coaching staff realizes just how fast and varied the blitz stunts are. Will Schaub be able to recognize them?

Miami was better then I expected. But they did have the #6 D last year.
And at least they didnt put up 500 yards on us like they did the Pats.
Biggest disappointment was the slacking off in the third qtr,thought for sure they where going to blow it. Then Schaub marches down field in 5 plays and scores like it was easy....shat drives me nuts.
