I just pulled about 4 muscles in my legs jumping up and running around the living room. What a game!
Vince Young still owns the city of Houston and the Texans. It is truly amazing to see the transformation he made in his time off. He knows this offense inside and out, something that couldn't be said of him before, and he has that confidence and swagger that we all loved watching his rookie season. He is making smart throws and pulling the ball down and running at the right time.
What more is there to be said about Chris Johnson? He stays on pace for his 2,000 yards with another 151 tonight on 29 carries.
You gotta love Rob Bironas. Misses a big kick but comes back and nails the one that really matters. Who has two thumbs and predicted the game would be won by a late Bironas kick? This guy.
And to make it all the more sweeter, that very well could be the dagger in Houston's quest to learn what being in the playoffs feels like. Here's to hoping they don't find out any time soon.
Enjoy the win. If nothing else, it keeps the Titans long-shot playoff hopes alive for another week. Have a ball in the comments on this thread. We will have a full recap and much, much more on this game in the morning.
GO TITANS!!

Good games guys
Wish the Texans woulda pulled it out but it was your night tonight..

the Texans played a pretty solid game
a few mistakes did them in. Very enjoyable to watch. I like the way the Texans have built their team, I think the division games are going to be a lot more fun from here on out

I don't mind it being a more even division
but to do it, the Texans have to start beating the Colts some in the bargain.

Great job by all. But you know we will never hear the end of the phantom horse collar, and even if we say that cancels out with the no tripping call, they will still rant.
That being said, let’s see who shows their face on our site now.

I just watched Young talking on ESPN and he was actuallty giving Vince props and said........
that if Vince can keep this up he will be one the biggest threats in the NFL. Not sure why everyone thinks he is so negative towards Vince. What I saw from him after the game was fair and optimistic. Just because he doesn’t jump up and down and crown Vince the greatest ever doesn’t mean he is an ass.

Yeah
He pretty well changed his tune entirely from pre-game to post-game.
Pre-game it was “Oh, VY isn’t a pocket passer he’ll never succeed- you have to stay in the pocket to succeed” and post-game it was “He has so many ways to beat you, from the pocket to outside the pocket, to the option” slurp slurp slurp.
I think the problem with dudes like Steve Young and Troy Aikman is that they took a few too many blows to the head to be substantive analysts.

defense (mostly secondary) just isn’t quite tuned right this year, and the special teams play is still below average. Unless those two units improve suddenly, we’re gonna lose one here eventually.

From the beginning of games all he did was doubt the Titans and VY, all his focus was on the Texans. Even after the win he still doubted VY. I know the guy is in the HOG, but he was jus a a**hole tonight. I think he wanted the Texans to win. GO TITANS, 4 in a row.

Ditka is still trying to make up for the fistfight he had with Buddy Ryan back in the day.
Also, Ditka wants to make the point that Fisher’s success polishes Ditka’s halo. In fact, Fisher left the Bears to follow Ryan and would almost certainly side AGAINST Ditka in any kind of coaching tree dispute.

But tonight the Jaguars are on the driving seat in the AFC wildcard hunt. Not bad from a rebuilding team; with 13 rookies; and 27 new guys on the roster…

It's not just CJ's speed
It’s also his vision and blocking capabilities, and he has good hands.
The proof I was think I needed was given to me tonight, when Vince threw the TD pass to Nate off an option play.
That pass was a thing of beauty, and now teams have film showing that all 3 aspects of the formation can be done, and now they have to try to defend against all of them simultaneously.
by hartley on Nov 24, 2009 12:05 AM CST up reply actions 0 recs
The whole offense is keyed around CJ's speed.
Almost everything they do is built around the idea that the other team has to keep contain on CJ on one side, and it takes MOST of their defense. That leaves VY free to do a good bit. And if you add in Safety help deep—because VY throws deep pretty well—then you’re in a spot for the QB-run and QB-short passing game.

How many years is his current deal for?
If it’s for 5 years, no.
I hate to bring this up, but my dad asked me tonight, “so, how long do you think Chris can run like this, and what happens once he slows down?”
On the other hand, the back I think he’s most like, Barry Sanders, did it for, what, 10 seasons, and left when he still had his legs, so I could be completely wrong, and would not be at all unhappy about it if so.

Yeah, I was joking
I hate to reflect on it was well, but I fear for how long he can do this.

The average RB career is 3 or 4 seasons.
Anything past 5 years is gravy.
And he could still be pretty elusive even after he slows down a bit – he has some good dance moves.

Only til he reaches his early 30s

I'm just saying...
the guy isn’t getting paid what hes worth this year. I don’t have the contract numbers, but it pales in comparison to the other RBs in the league. I’m not saying give him a record breaking deal, but at least rework it so he can get a fat bonus. Even if they have to backload the contract and eventually redo the deal, I feel he deserves a big payday soon.
Better to give him one while hes still on the team rather than him get wooed away by another team.

You know the only thing I think that would woo him to another team is if the titans wouldnt pay him. We’re giving him the touches, hes become the franchise back, because lets be honest, Thindale aint coming back. (and I wish him the best, I love the man) I think he likes it here, and seems to have a great relationship with many of his teammates, and it only seems to be growing.

Vick never has and never will have the command over an offense the way Vince did tonight

I actually don't think CJ would want to leave
unless something terrible happens and he just hates playing for Tennessee. From what I can tell, he likes being here and likes his teammates.
After a monster season like this, he needs to be rewarded extra. Its pretty unreal how well he is playing. Hopefully he doesn’t falter next year and become average.

I have to absolutely agree about his relationship with his team mates.
the way he embraced lendale with enthusiasm after he scored a touchdown that really resulted from CJ’s work shows me what a team player he is. He celebrated almost as much when Lendale scored as he does when he scores. I really think he is about team and not just CJ.

exactly, im sure cj will be sad to see lendale go too, they seem to have a good relationship, but im sure he will wish him the best

great win
i was late in the office for an hour but it was worth it.
My concerns though…
1. The secondary still needs to improve. They are probably at 70% now of what they were last year.
2. Nick freaking Harper
3. Special Teams. I thought we just signed a returner last week? Where is he? We’ve got to improve our covering also.
4. CJ’s carries. It’s gonna be a long season. Is he built to be a workhorse like Eddie George? Can he keep this up?

I'm glad to see that only one Texan fan showed up for this thread...
and was really a good sport about the loss and not a troll. You’ve got some definite class, Saentia. Wish more of your BRB brethren did.
GO TITANS!!!
