Texans @ Bengals Monday Night Football Game Thread

[LucasOilStadium]

Hi, Colts fans!     I felt I should post tonight's  Monday Night Football game between  the Texans and Bengals because the Houston Texans is one of our divisional rivals, and the outcome may impact the AFC South standings.  

 

Our Colts currently have a record of 4-5 while the Texans are 3-5 prior to tonight. If The Texans win, both the Colts and Texans would be tied in first place at 4-5, but the Colts own the tie breaker by their earlier head-to-head win this season from Houston. If the undefeated and 8-0 Bengals win, Colts would lead the Texans by one game, heading into Week 11 of the season next weekend.

 

Texans and Bengals tonight will be in their tenth all-time meeting, including 7  regular season, and 2 postseason games.  Houston also leads the series 5 games to 4.

 

Mike Tirico and Jon Gruden are announcing tonight's live TV game commentary, along with sideline/field reporter and interviewer Lisa Salters, for ESPN's Monday Night Football, seen live on HD.

 

Cloudy skies at 48 degrees is the local game forecast inside Paul Brown Stadium in Cincinnati, for the 8:30PM Eastern Standard Time kickoff.

 

NO injuries, and just for tonight in this Monday Night Football game, GO BENGALS!!!!!

Probably a blowout by the Bengals.

[-JJ-]

Probably a blowout by the Bengals.

probably- their next game at Cards

Could be a super bowl preview. Both teams are really good right now, can't wait to watch that game.

[Andrew Luck fan club]

I hope the Bengals get blown out. By the cards, too.

yeah I was thinking the same thing.

[LucasOilStadium]

Battle of field goals and the Bengals lead 6-3.  I've seen so many wobbly passes from Andy Dalton before, many did not reach his receivers, and were dropped passes.

[2006Coltsbestever]

6-3 Cincy. Still anyone's game. Cincy doesn't look that great so far but Houston has no Offense which is the usual story with them.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Dalton looks out of sync tonight!

[snkdy]

Unbelievable. Cincy always looks like crap against the Texans.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Cincy looks lethargic tonight. If they played the Pats like this Tommy would be up at least 2 or 3 TD's.

[oldunclemark]

Bengals hanging on 6-3..late 3rd Q..

.....the excitement of so much scoring is almost too much to watch (Is 'SuperGirl' still on??)

[oldunclemark]

Hoyer's hurt..the 'D' will have to score for Houston

[2006Coltsbestever]

Dalton sacked! WOW

[2006Coltsbestever]

TJ Yates in. Hoyer out.

[snkdy]

TJ Yates in. Hoyer out.

 

I'm sure Bengals fans love that

, did that start tonight?

[IndyD4U]

Houston has some nice looking young CBs. One was a UDFA, I believe

[2006Coltsbestever]

Yates with a 10 Yard completion and tack on 15, roughing! Cincy playing lousy.

[oldunclemark]

, did that start tonight?

SuperGirl is cute. Not the brightest superhero ever by a long shot...but charming..

Meanwhile..Bengals stumble into the fourth quarter in search of a TD

Yeah I have seen the previews of it, she is cute. I didn't even realize that started tonight. Dalton playing like Playoff Dalton tonight for some reason

[2006Coltsbestever]

Houston leads 10-6 in Cincy! Behind TJ Yates, unreal.

[jvan1973]

Great catch by Hopkins

[LucasOilStadium]

Texans backup T.J Yates just threw a 22-yard TD pass to DeAndre Hopkins to give Houston their first lead of the game at 10-6.

[snkdy]

Remember when Yates beat the Bengals in the playoffs? Lol.

[2006Coltsbestever]

Remember when Yates beat the Bengals in the playoffs? Lol.

Yep. Dalton went 3 and out too again but Cincy just held them. So Dalton gets it back.

[oldunclemark]

What a big game for Houston.....could tie us for 1st place..

But 10 points probably wont be enough

[2006Coltsbestever]

Qwizboy's Texans playing tough tonight

[oldunclemark]

Texans are all jacked up and the Bengals look slow..wow near interception

[2006Coltsbestever]

Dalton almost picked, man oh man!

[oldunclemark]

I love how the home crowd of division leaders..undefeated teams...turn on the home team at the drop of a hat.

Those boos real inspire the home boys

[snkdy]

We really need the Texans to lose tonight. I should know better than to count on the Bengals smh.

[2006Coltsbestever]

I know I want Cincy to win but they are playing like garbage right now. Texans look hungry and a step quicker.

[LucasOilStadium]

Hal with the Texans pick. Texans have not allowed a score in 9 fourth quarters. Bengals also har only 16 offensive yards, contrast from their 162 offensive yards in the first half,

[2006Coltsbestever]

We really need the Texans to lose tonight. I should know better than to count on the Bengals smh.

We need Cincy to win otherwise yes, they tie us for 1st. Come on Cincy!

[oldunclemark]

Cincy was a 10-point favorite (and if they had known TJ was going to play, it would have been 20)

[jvan1973]

I don't think Brian Hoyer is worth a 10 difference in the spread. It's not like he has been great

[Malakai432]

Tyler has sucked this game.

[Malakai432]

And...... Almost intercepted.....

Come'on Bengirls, I know they were going to take a dump sometime. This is not the game to do it, hah.....

I know. Just a little Vegas humor, 'J' I'm here all week..2 shows on Sunday.
