This is why you visit houstonramblings: hard-hitting Texans insight! Sure, the Texans won, but did they look good? Sortof. They scored 22 points, which isn't shabby, but 15 came from field goals, which isn't good. And three of those field goals were longer than 50 yards, which means they didn't move the ball very far into Dolphins' territory. Once they got the ball on the other side of the 50, it didn't seem that they tried very hard to score touchdowns. But it was an awful lot of trouble for them to get the first one (4 rushes to gain 3 yards). You'd like to see them put more emphasis on the TD because field goals aren't going to beat teams like Indianapolis. That said, I had Kris Brown on one of my fantasy teams (23 points, if you're scoring at home), so I'm not complaining. And neither should Texans fans, a win is a win.
The Texans Record Setting Season
The Texans are 3-2 after beating the winless Dolphins 22-19. This is, apparently, the first time in franchise history they've started 3-2. Not sure if that qualifies for "best start" status. It is, however, better than .500, which is rare for the Texans. In 2004, the Texans got their third win in the sixth game of the season. Every other season, it's taken them many more games to get the third win. The Texans have only been over .500 for 3 weeks before this season (1-0 in the first two seasons and a 4-3 start in 2004). This is already the fourth week they've been over .500 this season. Now you can see why Texans fans are excited!

I like the posts on the Texans. Although I'm not a Texans fan, I like to hear how teams are doing around the league, especially since we don't really get any of their games here. Which brings me to my bitterness towards DirecTV and how I can't watch games. I'll save that for another post.
