New York Jets at Houston Texans Game Thread

New York Jets at Houston Texans, Sep 13, 2009 1:00 PM EDT


Jets vs Texans coverage

Jets vs Texans preview

SBN Texans Blog: Battle Red Blog

Inactives:

CB Drew Coleman
CB Marquice Cole
LB Ryan Fowler
RB Shonn Greene
TE Matthew Mulligan
QB Kevin O’Connell
G Matt Slauson

No surprises here. Greene has a rib injury. The rest are the bottom of the roster. Erik Ainge is the third quarterback over Kevin O'Connell if for no other reason than Ainge actually knows the system.

 

Here we go.

It's been over 8 long months since that bitter December night in the Meadowlands.

The Mark Sanchez and Rex Ryan Eras begin. This is the first step to finding out whether this is the coach-quarterback combo to take us to the promised land.

This is a pretty important game. The next three weeks see home games against New England and Tennessee and a trip to New Orleans. The Jets need to take care of a beatable opponent.

Leave your thoughts below.

I really like Chad, but he’s never put together two good seasons in a row. He’s always at his best when he has something to prove. This year he doesn’t have anything to prove. He’s the toast of Miami.

With one out he caught the ball, and was about to throw it into the stands thinking it was the third out, letting Turner score from second

He should do that more often

I love how the Texans’ linemen were pointing at the Jets. No Jets jumped over! There can’t be a penalty on the defense then!

Not sure I understand the strategy there

What happened to working the sidelines? Another running play, followed by a short pass up the middle?

The Defense is playing much better than expected. No Ellis or Pace. Revis is showing that he is a top 5 DB in the NFL. E.Smith is kinda underrated in my eyes, not great but a very physical safety.

BEYOND MY WILDEST EXPECTATIONS!

This defense is SHUT DOWN SMASH MOUTH !

Sanchez is makes me say to myself “ok, don’t start getting stupid thoughts about instant all-star.” But what else to think??!?

They are flying around on both sides of the ball. This is unbelievable.

I thought the Jets were not supposed to win this game because of a rookie QB and no WR’s. I know it the first game but this should be an interesting year.
