    Thanks for sharing. It would have been worse than awful to find out I missed it.

    Except my prime sleep hours are 3 1/2 hours sometime between 7PM to 12 AM...

    which is why I'm up all night. But thanks for the encouragement. Time for another pot of coffee.

    BTW, Happy New Year on the new revised Pagan Calendar. I'm partial to the old one which starts on April 1 and where days end at sunset.

    I hate it. Its the only Houston sporting event I have been able to consistently watch in Europe. Oh well, either up all night or wake up really early.

    Houston win and JAX tie will also do it.

    I do wonder about the 3 seed if KC loses to the LAC while winning the AFCW and we win the AFCS beating IND while JAX loses or ties leaving KC and HOU tied at 10-7. I think it goes to conference record. I think KC has a better Conference record.

    At least it's on the weekend

    Sounds like a good excuse to pound coffee all evening and beer all night!

    Is this the most meaningful non-Astros game in Houston pro sports in several years?

    Sure feels like it

    Are we getting buck and aikman on this game? That would be cool. I can’t think of any time they’ve called a Texans game.

    I’m kinda shocked we got a prime time game. I knew Bills vs Mia would be a Sunday game for sure but I thought they would have gone Pitt vs Bal for the prime sat game bc east coast bias, sexier story lines and it has some playoff consequences for Pitt.

    The networks love a "win and you're in" game. All the better if it is effectively an elimination game as well. Sort of like a free playoff game.

    Pitt has a shot at a wild card. Long shot but still a shot. I think they need the Bills to loose or have Colts/Tex tie.

    Pitt needs to win, have the jags beat the titans, and have Miami beat Buffalo to get in.

    Not even just that, but CJ Stroud is BY FAR the leading candidate for OROY and Will Anderson is considered either the first or second for DROY.

    Another 2 sack game by Anderson and it's a lock, anything but a completely tragic game by CJ Stroud and it's a lock for him too.

    A game that is essentially an elimination game for the playoffs with leading candidates for OROY and DROY is a no-brainer for prime time.

    Isn’t the ravens game pointless? They’re the #1 seed and the Steelers are behind 2 teams

    Thank goodness. The less Orlovsky exposure I receive, the better.

    Beware of names starting with ORL like ORLovsky, ORLeans and ORLlando.

    He'll definitely get some consideration, but CJ is playing the much tougher position, at the level of a seasoned pro, and on a rebuilding team that is playing for the playoffs. I'd be very surprised if he doesn't win.
