    Helmets get ripped off all the time. Instead of taking a swing at the head, he should have just grabbed his helmet (but not by the facemask.

    It was a stupid penalty out of frustration.

    Point is you put it in a place only AJ has a chance at it, a jump ball, fade route in the end zone, etc.

    Okoye essentially laid down total pwnage on Jamarcus, causing him to fumble and we recovered the ball around their 15..

    Okoye caught Russel on a rollout stripped the ball and then pulled Russel away from the ball so a Texan could grab it.

    That's the play you run on 1st or 2nd down... not on 3rd and inches.

    No kidding. Give it to Slaton. Why does Kubes always seem to throw on 3rd and short? I know Slaton is not a short yardage back, but give the kid a chance, especially after last week.

    EDIT: Kubes does it twice. Two wasted downs trying to throw for 3rd and short.

    UNBELIEVABLE

    I can't find a working link, but on third and short, you either power run it, or at least do one of Kubiak's patented draws....

    Do a QB sneak! Get the freaking first down!

    Then try your gimmick plays 4 times more.

    Well, we'll get a higher draft pick next year. Kubiak with two ridiculous play calls in a row

    This is why we need to draft a big RB in the draft.

    Two redzone opportunities - 3 points total to come out of that.

    Slaton's not a short yardage back, but he has enough power to carry about 5 men a yard.....

    Amobi's gotta be furious.
