Texans denied!!

09-25-2011, 08:22 PM

The Saints are part of the NFL elite, and the Texans are still figuring out how to win games. That difference played itself out again Sunday in New Orleans, with the Saints somehow erasing a 26-17 deficit — and, later, a 33-32 disadvantage — en route to a thrilling 40-33 win over the Texans.

Houston had this game right where it wanted it. The Texans were moving the ball at will and doing a nice job limiting Drew Brees and the potent Saints’ attack. It all fell to pieces in the final 15 minutes, though.

It's hard making it to the next level, but I feel the NFL hasn't heard the last of the Texans this season.

The Texans will win the AFC South.

I doubt they win a playoff game though.

The Titans could pull it together - IF Johnson can gain more than 2 yards per carry.

patience is a precious personality disorder, rush for what? a mistake. think about it. yesterday we saw a sickness in winning. we are for real.

Teams have to be concerned that no lead appears to be safe against the Saints.

Other than the Saints, the only other team that might have been able to win against the Texans would be the Packers.
