As we close out the first half, my impressions are this:
Too many penalties and penalties in my mind are coaching related because usually it means a lack of discipline.
I am surprised with the talent on this defense that we play as badly as we do, so again I come to the coaching staff and I ask why cant we make plays?
Is Houston seriously this good?
Defensively we make a play and look good, then we blow coverage and give them a chance to score a field goal with one second left.


Offensively, even though Aaron Favre threw another interception, I think we have to pass the ball to win.
Our passing game can open up our running game, but our running game isn't good enough to create the passing game.


So far I'm happy with the new punter.

It wasn't that bad of a pass. A lot of Favres INT come on plays like that. There are stupid passes then passes like that. He looked to see who was covering who then delivered the ball but one of the DB's came off his guy to under cut a route, Nothing you can do about that. One of those ones you just have to tip your hat on. Not many defenses have the balls to pull plays like that because if Rodgers looks back to Driver it's an easy TD but Rodgers was more interested in a safe short pass and get out of bounds.

Oh and the Punter looks good!

I think by and large he's played really well.
He just has a little bit of that Favre in him that he decides not to read the defense because he thinks he can make any play at any time.
I like that confidence, but it can also get you in trouble.
And he's always going to be compared to Brett.
Brett was the best quarterback we ever had, and that is something in comparison to Bart Starr.
I always liked and admired Brett until he became a traitor and tried to get himself hooked up with our most hated enemy.

I'll agree the D is weak but I have a problem when people coonsider turnovers LUCKY. urnovers come as a result of being forced and that's the one thing at least we need to credit this D with. They can take the ball away. If I was offered Houston would get 17points today I'd take it thinking our O can at least score 20

I agree with previous comments.

TOO many times this season our D makes 2 good plays, only to give up a big play on 3rd down. This has been the most consistant thing about our D.

We are lucky to only be down by 3.

And we HAVE to pass. Our run game once again has been lackluster.
I say bring in Jackson to start the 2nd half. See if he can do what he did last week. Grant hasn't done anything.

If we lose today, the season is over anyway.
Pull out ALL the stops.

I haven't watched the game so far, but how does our punter look?
