The Texans Are Already Wearing Their Rose Colored Glasses

Houston will come out with a similar gameplan for Olsen that Jax had. I wouldn't count on Olsen having too many stats. Doesn't mean he won't affect the game, though. Look for Philly and Ginn to have to step up again. I do think we will be able to run more effectively on Houston than we did on Jax, and we should be able to stop their run more effectively than we did against Jax. Forcing Mallet/Hoyer to pass should result in plenty of opportunities for Notman and Bene.

Maybe Funchess can get a 7 yard gain again and spin the ball like he just made an incredible play, like he did yesterday.  

Or hey, maybe I can sit by the bay, eat some hey, play with clay, what do ya say?

seems like most of them want to start ryan mallett because he was put in well after the game became a blowout in the 4th and was able to put up some points

leaning on a quarterback to be long term starter material because he played well in relief is one of the most dodgy 50/50 things you can do in the NFL i think

I think it will be a closer game than Jacksonville, but to say they'll blow us out? Hogwash.

It was his first regular season NFL reception.  Give the kid a break.

I see they have forgotten that we Annexed Puerto Rico from them

Their defense is trash. They gave up 27 points at home to a team that had 0 WR TDs last season. 

Offensively they're the only team that might be even less talented than Jacksonville. 

Watt is a monster but he's only 1 player. Even without KB, Star, & Kuechly we will dismantle them. 

Okay, now I can see your electric blue glasses are on.

So they don't even know who their starting quarterback will be, but they're going to run all over us...

Because no prominent WR on our team has ever done that before.

I don't get why people keep thinking our defense isn't anything that great.  It was said during the fantasy pregame show, NFLN pregame, Jax boards, and now the Texans boards.  I guess from an outsiders perspective, they just don't know guys like CJ, Short, Davis, Norman, and Bene outside of Luke.  Star should be back as well.  

And that Texan OPs take is terrible.  He could barely write a coherent sentence.  

Quite frankly, the Panthers have no real weapons on either side of the ball other them Cam Newton.
They strike no fear.
They don't have enough on either side of the ball to really worry about.
This will be a lop sided victory for the Texans.
I'm sorry I didn't add a player profile for this game, but they really don't have anyone worth mentioning that stands out other then Cam.

I watched the entire KC/Houston game yesterday and KC got 21 easy points off 2 Hoyer turnovers inside their red zone (like inside the 10, can't count on that week in and out) and a broken coverage that left Kelce ridiculously wide open. The game wasn't as lopsided as it may seem and Houston looked better than the score indicated. Mallett looked pretty solid as well, so much like anyone in the NFL Houston should not be taken lightly.

He proved himself though.  Funchess made out like he's been doing it for years.

With either Hoyer or Mallet, the Texans win this one on the road easily.  Texans 34 Panthers 10 A good laugh makes me feel better after the loss. There is frankly no basis for your statements. JJ and 52 scrubs wont win more than they lose in 2015.

Hopefully our oline can protect cam, OR J J will go yum yum yum
