so was Jack Youngblood by season's end, and he played on the D-line.

But I'm pretty sure a 300 lb lineman can, and a 260 lb TE.

I don't think I've ever heard of a 200 lb LB in the NFL. About 225 is the lightest I've heard of (Derrick Brooks I think).

33-3 Saints .... book it!

I can see another game like last week - maybe more TDs for us than FGs -

I think 31-20

The Texans have a second tier quarterback, Ben Tate, a banged up Derrick Ward(who is questionable), Arian Foster who will not play, (though all world) one receiver, and a pretty good tight end who has not found his groove yet.

We have the advantage offensively.

Don't let them make big plays on special teams and we should take this one.

Tate will get the start at RB, Foster is questionable and Ward is out. If Foster's hammy is OK, that could be a sick tandem.
We have excellent receiving TE's, the best WR in the NFL and a top 6 0r 7 QB.
We all know and respect the hell out of y'all's pass offense, but your running game isn't very well established yet. I do like your RB's even if Ingram hasn't made a lot of noise yet. Sproles can be a nightmare out of the backfield.
Schaub can get a little antsy under pressure, so how well we pick up the blitz will be HUGE.
This game will come down to defenses and turnovers. It may very well be won by the team that has the ball last.

Us, a lot. Them, less.

34-23 Who-Dat :bng:

Time to do the damn thing... I'm going to change my prediction.

41-23 in a big blowout baby!

You got it Papz, I'll see you 7 and raise you one point.

42-23 Two-Dat conversion :smile:

Id like to order a deep dish of CROW....
