    Anybody watching? I'm honestly pretty intrigued by this game because of the qb situations going on with both teams. Houston looks like they have came to play on defense.

    We had the same thoughts at the same time. Maybe the threads can be merged.

    Clowney is a pretty crazy athlete. Did you see his pursuit on an interception a few weeks ago? He was flying down the field like a safety or something and he's gigantic. Pretty freakish to be that fast and that big.

    Defense wins games, only hope Texans have next week.

    They're for sure bringing the pain today. The crowd is crazy in to it as well. Playoff football is just totally different.

    Looks like it bounced off his hands, then hit the ground. Worth the challenge though

    He had great concentration on that interception.

    If the punt touchback came to the 25 like the kickoff, more teams would go for it on 4th down

    Well looks like the refs are in preseason form as usual.

    I don't know why more returners don't drop kick the punter enroute to the end zone

    Texans are looking more legitimate than I expected.

    That's what I was thinking. Their offense is still really erratic though.

    I don't think Osweiler is worth $72 million. Bill O'Brien doesn't think Osweiler is worth $72 million. I don't even think HE thinks he's worth $72 million but it's good money if you can get it.

    I was wondering myself when Clowney could emerge and be that "transcendent talent" many of us heard so much about.


    Seems his level of play, much like J.J. Watt, can easily have a positive influence on the rest of the defense. Not saying he is at J.J.'s level yet, but he has come on and looks more and more comfortable playing.

    Well, Houston needed a quarterback desperately. Who knows though? Maybe a year of seasoning will help Brock become better and be the guy Bill wants. Not saying he will be a tier one quarterback, bit a year of seasoning can help even the most morbid of situations for players.

    Man that hit on McGloin was straight up tough to watch. Dang. I miss when we used to level people like that consistently though.

    I'm watching and keep wondering how many raider fans are bitching about gruden not having the raiders prepared.

    LOL! What's funny is that earlier he was basically still complaining about how he was forced to spend draft picks on kickers.

    Romeo better have his guys ready to slay Brady next week. Brock ain't gonna get it done!
