I Wonder if the Bye Week Gave Texans Chance to Add Some Wrinkles

[Aikbach]

What has been largely overlooked about this week's opponent is that they've had two weeks to prepare for the Cowboys. If they studied games 1 and 4 they may feel they have appropriate schemes drawn to thwart the Cowboy air attack once again, I don't think they will, but if Houston was ever going to give Dallas problems then coming out of the bye week and a heartbreaking Cowboy defeat is probably just the appropriate time to attempt an upset.

I expect lots of cover 2 and zone blitzing. I expect trick plays a plenty, flea flickers, reverses, gadget passes and on-side kicks. Anything to give an early tempo and scoreboard edge to the visiting underdogs.

if we kick-off to open the game, we should onside kick and give the players pickle juice to prevent cramps. That usually works.

That my friend is a once in a decade opportunity nad won't be repeated for sometime, look what happened to the eagles when they audaciously tried it a second time three years later.

I know. It's getting late, I'm a bit drunk and that was the first wrinkle that came to mind.
