If Pro Bowl voters like Winston as much as I like his radio show, he’ll be in Hawaii this year. Winston’s show can be heard on SportsRadio 610 from 5-6 every Tuesday afternoon.

Marc Vandermeer, the voice of the Texans is to the Texans as Rush Limbaugh is to the United States. Does that make sense to you? Think about it.

Steve Slaton just scored on a 40 yard touchdown run over the right side. I thought Slaton’s ability to run would be key to this game. Big Eric Winston mans the right tackle spot for the Texans and Slaton has rushed for 127 yards and 2 touchdowns with Winston’s help.

With 9 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter, the Texans defense is looking good. Who would have thought? I knew that the Jaguars offensive line has had some trouble this year, but the Texans defense has been poor this year. The question is can the Texans defense hold up through the final quarter and a half of the game. A shut out by the defense would be an early Christmas for a much maligned defense.

The first thing I noticed when I turned on the tv is that the Texans crowd is strong. It is loud in the stadium and sounds like a bona fide NFL Monday Night Football game. Much talk today was about the fans not getting into their seats early enough. Many stay out in the parking lot too long tail gating. I’m not sure how the crowd started out at kickoff, but they sound great right now.
