2011 Texans Watch-Beat Dem Saints Again

I'm still in Washington DC and the Redskins-Cowchips hatefest Round One is taking center stage today amongst inside the Beltway football fans.   I'm still laser focused on my hometown NFL gridiron heroes. 

The Houston Texans beat the New Orleans Saints 27-14 during the preseason in a game at Reliant the starters only played in the first half. 

Now fast forward a few weeks.  The Saints and Texans are playing this time in an NFL game that not only counts in the standings, it's at the Superdome in front of their fans.   The Texans also are playing for the first 3-0 start in franchise history.

Ben Tate, who did some damage in the preseason game against them, will be seeking to become the first rookie running back since Cadillac Anderson to have three consecutive 100 yard games in the opening weeks of his NFL career. 

Hmm, no pressure. 

Who Dat say we gonna beat Dem Saints?    The team 375 miles west of you on I-10, that's who.
