Does anyone know if Asante Samuel is playing for the Eagles? I don't think he played against the Bears and we saw how much of a shoot out that was. You guys think Schaub & Johnson could be enough to out score Vick and the Eagles offense?

The most recent reports are that Samuel is going to be a game-time decision.

As for the Texas, you're forgetting about Arian Foster. He's been arguably the best RB all season and is on-pace to have a historic campaign.

It's going to be a high scoring game. Both defense are not great. It's going to pass the 60pts mark in total.

I'll be betting 200 fake dollars to help make this game more exciting. No, 300! Wait, 200.

Okay, are we going to get the subtitle of the thread changed? Since, you know. AFC?

Asante is out. Time for AJ to go off. I need some monster points from him.

I just heard that on NFLN, and of course I ran out of time to change my pick in Yahoo Pick em... darn.

I say Texans 42 Eagles 34

Let's go with some lines (that I made up):

Odds the score is 3-0: 1-10000
Odds Vick scrambles for a TD: 2-1
Odds Schaub has 400+ passing yards: 1-4
Odds on 3+ interceptions on the night: 1-2
Odds Eagles throws over 50 times: 1-3
Odds 6 or fewer total punts: 1-3

Any guesses?

Possibly it's the other way around......

I just don't understand how Houston is so bad on Defense. They have some good pieces. Mario Williams, B Pollard, Cushing. But as a unit they suck. They really needed to draft a CB.

They did, in the first round - Kareem Jackson out of Alabama.

As far as I can tell he's been abused all year.

Got a little hobbled up on a reverse run. But the next play he comes back in on, he hooks up for 47 yards. He was wide open too. If Schaub led him. An easy 60 yard TD.

Once again the commentating sucks. They were just pumping up Groves and how great of a play it was, then they show another angle and the defender didn't even touch the ball. *smacks forehead*

They booed him hard early on but he's playing well and the Heat are pounding the Cavs so they've eased up somewhat. I'm loving it.

Thanks for the info Pu.

I saw Schaub's pick. UGLY!

I just heard both Millen and one of the other guys call Jason Avant "Maclin".

The NFL Network needs to make some changes. The games they get great but the announcing is just hard to listen to.

I'd love to see the reaction around here if Flacco threw a pick like that.

If the Texans offense would be that efficient all year long, they might not be hovering around 0.500 like they've been the past few weeks.

It's a shame that the Texans defense has been so porous that the offense's efforts have been wasted. I'll give them credit for shoring up on the last couple of possessions, though. That deficit looked insurmountable for the Texans for a bit until Schaub and Foster started working a little magic.

Foster got a TD and now the Texans trail by 3.

Eagles 20
Texans 17

If the Texans lose... will that essentially eliminate them from playoff contention?

Way to vote "Texans" now that they're on a hot streak and rattling Vick.

Where are those "Vick is god" people now?
