The answer? Blitz constantly and play bump and run/ultra tight coverage on the receivers. Houston has one top tier Wideout in AJ, and a bunch of #3s outside of that. Constant blitzing combined with safeties playing right over the receivers keeps Schaub from getting off quick passes and shuts down the run game. Furthermore, they're blitzing up the middle, which shuts down the strongest part of Houston's run game (between the tackles runs). If Sam Shields hadn't been an idiot and grab a receiver that wouldn't have reached that ball anyways, it would still be 14-0.
If Jerry Gray doesn't watch this game and mimic this, he's an idiot. |

I don't know if he can trust our safetys with that plan. _________________

Problem is we don't have a CMIII, Tramon Williams, Charles Woodson, and I'll take their safeties over ours anyday. _________________

yeah but our corners aren't awful, and it's not like GB's corners have been playing like all-pros this year. _________________

True. I actually like our corners and think their both good players but our pass-rush is horrible still and they literally have no help from the safeties and Gray is an idiot. _________________

Scratch that.. this is pure bliss. Hopefully Aaron Rodgers starts breaking some single game records. _________________

Step 1: Trade for Aaron Rodgers.
Step 2: Trade for Jordy Nelson.
Step 3: Beat Houston.
The gameplan is clear. _________________

Our defense actually shut them down for the 2nd quarter and most of the 3rd until Hass started blowing it. If Locker doesn't get hurt vs Houston, that result, while maybe not a win, is much closer.
Texans are good, but they've been overrated to be some top tier team. They're not. |

| Actually, the Texans running game is stronger outside the tackles than inside. Everyone knows the Texans are great at the stretch run play and they showed a stat during the game that they average 4.5 on outside runs and 3.8 on inside runs |

While this will come off as cocky or just hating, I never really thought the Texans were as good as people said they were.
We were in the game for the most part outside of some bad QB play. Not saying would have won either, but would have been closer.
But looking at who they have played:
Miam
Jacksonville
Denver
Jets
Titans
Packers
Miami isn't that great but getting better as the year goes on
Jacksonville hung on longer than expected but not that good either
Denver almost rallied to beat them, Manning started slow in that game
Jets were close to beating them and they aren't that great
We aren't great or weren't playing like a NFL team at that time
now
Packers who molly whooped them.
It's not a who's who of elite teams. I don't think they were really tested until now and we see what happened.
Just my two cents.. _________________ "I'm not locked in here with you. You locked in here with ME!" |

There's a lot of parity so far this year. The only undefeated team is Atlanta which barely escaped with a win over Oakland yesterday.
The Ravens are 5-1 but just lost Webb and possibly Ray Lewis for the year. The Texans just got smoked by Green Bay. Arizona has QB issues.
The 49ers have gotten it handed to them twice. The Bears are 4-1 but they haven't really played anyone except Green Bay. Even the Patriots are only 3-3.
There isn't really one team that stands out besides Atlanta as of right now. Maybe the Giants. _________________

Arizona has line issues, much worse than ours. Their QB play is alright, the problem is their line can't protect them at all. _________________

| The Texans strongest and most often called run play is the stretch, which is just outside the tackles. |
