There's no "Texans win" scenario that doesn't involve multiple defensive scores and a Tom Brady injury

The Texans were beat 27-0 by the Patriots version of the Oakland Raiders last week (3rd string QB starting and got injured during the game)

Fun trivia: Brady was a big Dexter fan and his version of Omaha, "Rita", is based on that show. I wonder what his thoughts on the later seasons are though.

The Chiefs forecast has moved from snow to sleet. The field is heated so the main problem will be the wetness, which is a major reason for the debacle in the last Chiefs / Steelers game :/

I refuse to predict an outcome of any Steeler game this year. I expect them to crush a team, and the Eagles curbstomp them. I expect a tough game, and they blowout the Dolphins. I watch them comeback in improbable fashion and take a lead in the last minute vs Dallas and blow it. I watch them comeback in probable fashion, blow it and still win vs Balt on Christmas. This team is nitro glycerin, and explodes in completely unpredictable ways

e; except the 1st Miami game. I knew for a fact they's lose that game

The Seahawks have this really disgusting habit of turning each opponent's weakness into a strength.

Green Bay is down to 4th and 5th corners? Turns out they're all-world corners (that week).

Detroit has a lovely offensive line? Manage very little pressure.

Since the Falcons have a "bad" defense, they're gonna rack up ~4 sacks and probably 3 interceptions by some guy who was bagging groceries three weeks ago. Football is weird.

It's Sic Semper Tyrannis. You said, "Ever faithful terrible lizard."
The other way to spin that if you're not hyper cynical is that the Seahawks gameplan crazy well to take away the opponents strength forcing the opposing team to beat the Seahawks with their weakest unit. Some teams rise to the challenge and some dont.

I was a little surprised how little we were blitzing up the middle considering the Lions were playing their 2nd string center and was considered one of the worst by PFF. Tom Cable probably told Kris Richard "bah those statistics mean nothing!" or something.

I have hope that Wilson is gonna ball on Atlanta. In his rookie year when we lost to them, it wasn't his fault - he threw like 380 yards and was on fire. He tends to perform well in domed stadiums. As long as Baldwin, Graham and apparently Paul Richardson can find some openings, the pass game should be somewhat alright.

Depending on how cracked they are, they may very well be fraked.
