Texans tilt will tell more about improved Saints defense

i hope the texans run at least a base offense; not a bootleg roll out pass/dump all night. i really want to see some work from the defense from all packages. i know we have improved from last season. were playing with passion and having fun again, i can feel it.

^ This. I don't know why, but I just have a sinking feeling that the Texans are going to dink and dunk all over the place and picking on Will Smith and it's going to end up being just like the Chiefs game and that last two-minute drive in the Raider game, 5-10 yard chunks all the way down the field. I'm worried that the no-huddle or two-minute drill seems to be working a little too well against the Saints.

If they dink and dunk on us all game like KC did then neither team will learn or gain anything from the game.

You can never evaluate everything and there is no need to.

Weekly the game planning changes as the opponent changes.

You prep for and execute the basics in preseason and then plan for the opponent specific items furring the week before the game.

Even personnel, there is just enough time to run the gamut of x,y,z and grade accordingly in the preseason because cuts are coming up and you want to make sure you keep the most value... That is also why it is still somewhat basic before we are down to 53.... Don't want someone you cut showing up in Atlanta knowing your advanced plays before the season even starts.

They can Dink/Dunk all they want. When Brown is one arming Watt, and Stills is burning them deep...
They will have to take to the air, that will put the ball in K-Vac's hands.... Schaub like to throw a game or two.

There is a reason D/D is not used as a full game plan.... It is as slow as a running game but wears an o-line out.
