    So how will it go with Banks at the helm? Early reports do say he has a nice long ball... so will we go conservative, or experimentally wide open?

    I feel if DD can get his 100+ on the ground, we'll see a fireworks display. And if the defense can stay on top of their Davis, we may just eek one out at home in our "battle red."

    Texans 27
    Panthers 24

    in OT...:D :D :D

    It won't be easy without Carr in there. But if DD can continue his amazing peformances on the ground, then anything is possible.

    Texans 17

    Panthers 14

    Go Texans!! :)

    It wont be easy with Stephen Davis running, he had 170 last week I think, and the D line is thin.

    Houston has been successful neutralizing the power running backs, but Stephen Davis has been a beast all year, except for the Titans game. While Tony Banks and his deep passes are excting, the Panthers defense has a knack of giving up a lot of yards but not a lot of points. Peppers and Mike Rucker (8 sacks) might force the Texans to protect Banks with an extra tight end/running back.

    I see Kris Brown having a busy day for the Texans with field goals and Stephen Davis having a busy day with over 30 rushes.

    Panthers - 27
    Texans - 19

    Unfortunately, I don't see this going our way, even though it should be close for most of the game. I think Davis will end up being a deciding factor as the Panthers control the ball and clock in the 4th.

    Panthers 20
    Texans 9

    Carolina is on a roll...We won't be able to stop the run and won't be able to generate a lot of offense...

    Texans 10
    Carolina 24

    Its gonna be difficult to the Texans win against the Panthers (the surprisng team of the season), and without David Carr

    But I hope they win

    I'm changing my prediction since I'm now sitting in Section 322, Row D with my brand new Battle Red #8 Jersey!

    Houston 17
    Carolina 16

    Kris Brown game winning FG right in my end zone!

    You're gonna be at the game RM? Awesome.


    I work at Reliant Park (stadium, arena, etc)

    I'll be "ushering" the 100 level (aka, watching the game :D)


    I love my pseudo-job

    It's also going to be hard to run the 3/4 without two out of three starters.

    I just put Stephen Davis on my Fantasy team for this very game. :D

    Judging by the 2 teams and the injuries it's gonna be a long boring game, unless you like watching the run attack.

    Man. I know we have injuries. But our defense is just no existant. Lineman cant get pressure. Linebakers cant stop the run. Secondary cant stop the pass.

    Pick your posion right now. :(

    Geez Dom. Should have taken the loss of down. 3 pts is better than 7.

    Well, I look like an idiot now. Glenn with the big interception to save the drive.

    What a cheap shot by Smith. Should have been thrown out for that. Kicking a player in the back like that. He could have really hurt DeLoach.
