I think he'll continue his streak next week too if the game stays close.

Probably poll question worthy for our 9 members.

Raise your hand if you thought we had blown the game late.

Romo just said Texans fans in our stadium were louder than most road games they go to. Said we had to use a silent count a lot today.

Pretty sad really.

They need to clean up some stuff though, we were fortunate to come away with the win.

The two turnovers we had in the redzone were the difference in this being a comfortable win instead of a major nail biter. Also had a few dropped balls. Run defense was really exposed in 2nd half.

Absolutely. They were fortunate. .... they damn near gave this one away.

Today was a classic case of why Garrett is in iver his head. He let at least 20-30 seconds get away from his team by not calling a timeout on Houston's last TD drive. Then he didn't tell Harris to take the touchback and conserve time.

Should have ended in regulation with a much shorter FG attempt than Bailey had on the miss.

Easily could have gone the other way today, and that would have been squarely on the golden boy's shoulders. It's funny too, because it comes on the heels of one of his better coaching weeks he's had, though rare.

Team is winning games against all odds. Owner and coach doing everything they can to fuck them over.

we blew the lead, but I didn't think Houston would necessarily win in OT

we're probably not that much better than the Giants

Yeah I think the Giants are a little better than I thought they'd be. Will be two tough games with them again this year.

I know they were giving Romo Wednesday off, they need to give Murray extra rest during the week too.

Yep...man is gonna be some kind of hurting tomorrow. 37 total touches today (31 rushes, 6 receptions).

That's even more than he had in any of the first four games, and the Texans D was much more physical than the others we have played so far.

Guessing Rex Ryan might not have to ride back to NY tonight on that plane.

Murray has 99 carries through 5 games, he had 217 all of last year.
